The Final Destination: Rest In Pieces

Just when  you though that the Final Destination movies could end up getting better and better. But for the most part the fourth film in the series which is titled The Final Destination ended up being the weakest and the worst installment in the Final Destination series. Its not only the worst installment in the series but it also ended up being the most embarrassing installment in the Final Destination films. All of the Final Destination fans will end up getting disappointed by this one because this movie has a lot of issues and faults and problems at the exact same time thanks to the bad execution of the film and I can't believe the same guys who nailed Final Destination 2 Director David Ellis and Writer Eric Bress ruined the fourth movie thanks to a bad execution and I love how they handled the plot and concept of this film but I hated how the execution ended up being bad rather than a good execution. Seriously who can suspect the hardcore fans of the Final Destination series to enjoy watching this movie. This film is a disposable Horror film and its very faulty and problematic from start to finish. David Ellis totally went down the hill when he made this film and I love his work in Final Destination 2 and Snakes On A Plane. But I can't believe he lost his talent when he made this movie and his other Horror film which is titled Shark Night a lame Shark movie that feels like an Asylum rip off of Jaws and hell that film was even worse than this movie. Writer Eric Bress should also feel embarrassed and a shamed for writing this film and these two totally ruined the Final Destination franchise thanks to the bad execution of the movie.
Anyways the movie only has a couple of good scenes during the first half of the film but the movie suffers from various flaws where the problems lately start in the whole movie. I did enjoy the opening race track disaster and some of the deaths were good in the opening scene but some ended up being fake and dull and I hated how the deaths became really fake during some parts of the premonition scene and at times the 3D in that scene is well used but in certain times it ended up being a bit unnecessary and the 3D scenes in this film is totally unnecessary and the execution of the 3D effects are bad in this film thanks to the use of CGI the whole film ended up being bland and unoriginal. The plot of course I didn't have any problems with it and its the same as the first three but I can't believe this movie ended up having a lot of flaws and mistakes and the whole movie is badly executed and this film is a complete train wreck from beginning to end and Ellis totally went down the hill with this film and I can't believe he directed this movie and I would enjoy this movie only if it wasn't badly executed and the whole movie feels horrendously awful and bland at the same time.
Ok there are only a few good things about this movie which I enjoyed in the film. The great thing about this movie is that the film's soundtrack is impressive and very unique at the same time and composer Brian Tyler did a good job with his work on composing the song for this movie and I just seriously feel bad for Shirley Walker who died after making Final Destination 3 and if she was alive she would compose the soundtrack for all five movies. But at least Brian Tyler did a good job with his work on the soundtrack for the movie and the songs are just as good as the songs from the previous Final Destination films and Brian Tyler was so good and overall I'm amazed with his work on the songs for this movie overall. The other things I like about this film is that the whole movie has an impressive opening and ending scene. I love the X Ray opening scene that shows the deaths from the previous Final Destination films in an X Ray style and I just love how it was also used in the last part where Nick, Janet and Lori gets killed by a giant truck and I would say that those are the best scenes I've ever seen in movie history and overall I had a fun time watching those scenes a lot.
Now one of the flaws that suffered in this movie are pretty simple. One of the things I hate about this film is that most of the deaths are fake and dull and I also hate how the deaths are mixed with horrid CGI effects and its used on the blood which is worse than I ever expected and the CGI in this film makes this movie look like a Syfy original picture mixed with bad CGI effects. Seriously every death scene is fake and some were also over hyped at the same time while some of them are laughable and ungory at the same time. In the premonition scene Nadia's death was great and intense but the rest of the kills in the premonition scene ended up being fake and dull thanks to the awful CGI effects used in the whole movie. And Nadia's death in the real world was so fake and it was quite stupid to have the tire flying out of the stadium it makes the Final Destination look like a comedic film rather than a scary film. Every death scene seriously is so bad in this film. The first kill scene where Carter Daniels gets killed is one of the most laughable death scenes in the whole movie because that scene didn't scare me and the song Why Can't We Be friends playing in that scene just made me laugh rather than feeling scared of it and that scene is the most laughable scene in the whole film. Andy's death was so fake in the film  as well and I like his death in the premonition which is a gruesome scene but his death in the real world was so quick and fake at the same time which I didn't like because there's no suspense on every death scene. Even the hospital sequence was so ungory and fake at the same time. And the escalator kill scene was so overhyped and I can't believe that scene was so overhyped but I did enjoy the over the top gore used in that scene. The only death scenes that I like in this film is the Salon sequence, The swimming pool kill scene is probably the goriest kill scene in the whole film, George's death was very similar to Terry Chaney's death in the first movie and the car wash scene is probably the only suspenceful scene in the whole film the rest just ended up being bland and unoriginal. My other problems with this film is the characters in the movie. I have no problems with the main characters of the movie but the rest were to Shallow and Paper Thin which is one of the biggest issues of the film so I think this is also one of the things that made this film suffer badly its too bad for David Ellis and Eric Bress. So overall the film is hardly scary or suspenceful thanks to all of the film's major issues and flaws. At least the acting is still good in this film the performances of the protagonists did a really good job with their work in the film but still it can't save the whole film because this is just an awful movie. Director David Ellis and Writer Eric Bress seriously went down the hill this time and if their work on the second film was good then this one is just awful and I can't believe these two lost they're talents in the movie and Ellis went down the hill for real and I just feel bad that he died after he made this and Shark Night and he could have at least made one more good Horror film to impress Horror fans before he died on January 2013 so I seriously feel bad for David Ellis for one reason. Overall The Final Destination is a disposable Horror film that has a lot of issues and flaws and it is the weakest and the most embarrassing installment in the Final Destination series.
