Among this cast of unluckies, there is no future Jamie Lee Curtis. But you do take the film home with you -- to all your own toys -- and that's what decent horror is supposed to do. Go to Full Review

I don't have a lot to say about Final Destination 5 save that, for the first time ever, I actually enjoyed sitting in a theatre watching one of these efforts from beginning to end. Go to Full Review
Tim Miller Cape Cod Wave Magazine Jul 22
3/4
The appeal isn’t watching someone in pain, it’s the suspense of knowing something very bad is going to happen but not knowing exactly how, and the humor in watching ridiculously unlucky victims fall prey to absurdly awful chains of events. Go to Full Review

A big yes to the 3D bridge collapse and boat mast impaling ... the agonisingly prolonged gymnasium jelly bones moment, the dark me-too comeuppance of sleaze-avenging acupuncture... Dario Argento-operatic laser surgery and the sublime time loop. Go to Full Review

Madam D Nov 19 This wraps up the franchise (so far) very nicely. Decent acting & written well. As usual, the Rube Goldberg death scenes are just too much fun. Gory, but fun tryng to guess what happens next to kill someone. Also spotted an actor from both The Walking Dead and Bold & Beautiful. See more Keriel N Nov 16 These kill takes a lot of effort, especially with that lasik eye scene, but it would been better and underrated. See more Darcy J Oct 13 overall a pretty middle of the range horror movie, not bad. See more RUBEN TRISTAN J Oct 11 um ótimo filme mas sem protagonismo nenhum , persongens débeis , e a cena do confronto final entre sam e peter é muito chata e só se salva pela reviravolta inesquecivel envolvida com o passado da franquia , aquilo ali foi espetacular ! See more John W Sep 25 I'm so happy that we got this movie after the fourth one before. The filming is so much better and the collapsing bridge is spectacular. There is also a really good twist at the end. See more @AldoBarajas96 Sep 4 Unexpected turn of events See more Read all reviews
