Final Destination (2000)

Stay away if your worse fear is flying!A pretty good (tense at timed) story, worthy of a watch, easy viewing!

This is a good movie, which basically shows that death is inevitable if God has decided that it's your time to go (actually all Final Destination movies are about this). Since there is nothing you can do anyways, it is better to accept that one day your time will come, just accept it and never think about death again. This movie makes accepting death easier, the only thing we can hope is that that day will be many years from today. Accepting death should be especially easy for Christians because we are not afraid of death and we know that we will have even greater life after death.But ofcourse, living a healthy, sensible, God-fearing life is likely to prolong your life on Earth and we should do that.

I know it's a popular horror movie, but how does it matter. The acting is quite ridiculous, cinematography is poor and amateurish, the only good thing in this movie is the concept of Death being fooled by people saved from it. Oh, and of course it's not scary. It create funny scenes (yes, because it's completely unbelievable, not just unlikely to happen), or chain reactions. That's it. I love the scene where one char makes a lot of precautions to avoid death in his apartment though. Is that even a great concept ? I mean, Death doesn't really care about us. It's not personal, you know. Death just makes sure some people die frequently, it's not like it's gonna make a complex, tedious chain reaction to kill you, and specifically you. You escaped a plane crash. Whatever, dude, Death is just gonna kill some old people instead. You know.

This is a great idea but the part I don't like is at the morgue when examining Todd's body. The coroner explains that lacerations on his hands are from yanking at the wire that strangled him. Alex brings up a great point that he if he was yanking at the wire, he wasn't trying to kill himself--it was an accident. All that develops into is the coroner coming back with a weird remark that in death, there ARE no accidents or coincidences. Realistically, someone wouldn't have that reaction to a great point and I thought, "Ok, could we quit being weird and acknowledge the point he just made? He was tugging at the wire, which means he didn't exactly set this situation up for himself. So how did this happen? It's bizarre. How can his death be explained?" This happened fairly early in the movie, which would've changed the storyline from there on had the coroner appropriately made a big thing of Alex's point.
