Final Destination 5 (2011)

Directed by Steven Quale

Starring Nicholas D’Agosto, Emma Bell, Tony Todd


How final can a final destination be? Well this could be it; however you never know this series like this.

The film follows the same premise of all the others just with different ways to kill people. A coach load of people are on a work retreat and become embroiled on a bridge collapsing event, until one of the guys suddenly realises he has had a premonition of all this happening. The premonition of everyone dying on a bridge looks great and the special effects are really good. For the rest of the film you are just waiting and wondering what ways the characters will be killed off.

One reason for this film looking good is down to director Steven Quale. The film is his directorial debut but he has previously worked on the effects with The Abyss, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Titanic and Avatar. With these under his belt you knew that you would be a good looking film.

The film is possibly the best one since Final Destination (2000) and the ending just wraps up the whole series which made the film enjoyable. Fans of the other Final Destination films will enjoy this so i would recommend it.
