[49] USA Today commented on the sequence, saying "The effect is terrific and reminiscent of the bridge destruction from Mission: Impossible III." [50] Betsy Sharkey, a Los Angeles Times film critic stated in her negative review "I will say, the bus, and the bridge it must cross, does make for a pretty incredible wham-bam opening sequence," and further added "The big crumble is a stunner of an opener."

No, but it didn’t matter, Final Destination was both a critical and commercial hit and regardless of who survived the events of the first movie, a sequel hit cinema screens in 2003. This time around the story centred on a pile up on Route 23, which in turn resulted in further dices with Death for all the survivors. Honeycutt, Kirk (August 23, 2011).

The ASA, which had received 13 complaints, with three stating that their children (aged between 1 and 3) had been upset, ruled "We considered the image was likely to catch the attention of children, especially because it was shown on a poster on the Underground, where it was an untargeted medium. Because very young children might view this ad depicting violence, it was likely to cause fear and undue distress to children." [28] Box office [ edit ]Final Destination 3 (2006)". Box Office Mojo.

The words "thinking person's" and "slasher film" probably don't belong in the same sentence, but you have to give the nifty little 2000 thriller 'Final Destination' a little credit. Not only is this a slasher film without the slasher -- death himself replaces Freddy Krueger, and resides entirely off-screen -- but it is the rare example of a genre film that legitimately confronts questions of mortality, destiny, and existentialist concern. No, this still ain't Nietzsche, but it is one of the smarter and more ambitious films of its type to come along in recent memory. Zenescope & Circuit City Offer Exclusive "Final Destination" Comic".
