Plots(1)
On what should have been a fun-filled day at the races, Nick O’Bannon (Bobby Campo) has a horrific premonition in which a bizarre sequence of events causes multiple race cars to crash, sending flaming debris into the stands, brutally killing his friends and causing the upper deck of the stands to collapse on him. When he comes out of this grisly nightmare, Nick panics, persuading his girlfriend, Lori (Shantel VanSanten), and their friends, Janet (Haley Webb) and Hunt (Nick Zano), to leave… escaping seconds before Nick’s frightening vision becomes a terrible reality. Thinking they’ve cheated death, the group has a new lease on life, but unfortunately for Nick and Lori, it is only the beginning. As his premonitions continue and the crash survivors begin to die one-by-one in increasingly gruesome ways - Nick must figure out how to cheat death once and for all before he, too, reaches his final destination. The film marks the latest in the highly popular “Final Destination” series, and its first 3D installment, giving horror fans an especially visceral thrill ride. (official distributor synopsis)

After watching the movie, you will likely think about one thing: was it really that stupid or was it all just an excellent exaggeration? I'm afraid it's option A, so it's one of the dumbest sequels of the year.

Terribly stupid when it comes to the dialogues, surprisingly badly directed and with dodgy digital effects, it almost reminded me of the awful Wrong Turn 3 several times. I wasn’t expecting an original or interesting plot, but such poor execution was a very unpleasant surprise. The ending was a bit tense, but it was not enough to improve the overall impression. And when in the last scene the protagonist says the following with a mysterious tone (spoiler): "What if it was planned from the beginning?", I couldn’t avoid laughing. It’s evident that even after the third sequel (or remake?), the creators still don’t have the rules of the game clearly set, the characters just pull “solutions” out of their asses and the whole thing looks increasingly ridiculous. Please, put an end to it already.

Very similar to all the previous parts, especially the third. Once again, the Grim Reaper is sharpening its scythe on the unfortunate few who dared to bypass it, and all the seemingly rather random deaths of the survivors are tragic to the point of morbid. The whole film is really about Death being unable accept any disruption to its natural order, and thus has to get things done own way, and all sharp, flammable and heavy equipment is welcome. In short, a generic slasher with all the trimmings that still managed to keep me pretty tense.

Ellis proves he’s two levels above of Wong. It’s eighty minutes of uncompromisingly laughing fun, in which, paradoxically, the opening is worthless compared to the previous films. Yet it is then amply compensated for by the rest of the film, in which there is plenty of room for blood, stupid effects, déjà vu, and, above all, uncompromising fun. Never mind the characters and the plot - as long as it does it in an original way every time and is never boring, even when it's stealing from the past. In terms of its category, the fourth film is filled to the brim.
