Critics Consensus

Final Destination 3 is more of the same: gory and pointless, with nowhere new to go.

Lessons of Darkness

Vapid, pointless and wholly predictable.

Austin Chronicle

In its own morbid little way, this is very much a stand-up-and-cheer -- or shriek, as the case may be -- kind of film.

Rated: 2.5/5

Orion's Shoulder (Substack)

The absolute scenes of Wong’s opener set on a wonky rollercoaster [but] it's a little sluggish, otherwise, with Mary Elizabeth Winstead’s Wendy doing my head in a bit. In a series that delights in silliness, she’s just too much.

Battle Royale With Cheese

‘Final Destination 3’ is a fan favourite for a reason: the death scenes are the most visually horrific ones so far in the franchise, and the cast are fantastic.

The Post NZ

Wong and co- writer Glen Morgan have again carefully and craftily plotted their set pieces, encouraging the audience to search for clues in, and out, of the frame.

Rated: 3/5

This is different from the other two, but the movie never comes out from the same point. Spoiler!!! Nothing happens. They just go the people that are going to die, and then they die.

Final Destination 3 has several internal problems, and this story of repeating the same course as the first film is definitely getting very boring.

These films are pretty much all the same, and I’m not sure how much more original any sequel in the franchise can be. They are however entertaining, and the deaths are enough to keep a horror fan happy. Due to the concept of the films, I am not sure if these films will ever stop being made. For the sake of 90 minutes of nonsense, I say bring them on.

Final Destination 3 sticks closely to the franchise formula, lacking in novelty and tension — but the morbidly creative death sequences still offer a guilty-pleasure thrill that's hard to resist.
