Ali Larter - Clear Rivers
Kerr Smith - Carter Horton
Kristen Cloke - Ms. Valerie Lewton
Seann William Scott - Billy Hitchcock
Chad E. Donella - Tod Waggner
Amanda Detmer - Terry Chaney

PLOT:
His entire high school class is going to Paris, but Alex Browning (Devon Sawa, Idle Hands) can't seem to shake his fear of flying. Once aboard the plane, he has a violently disruptive premonition which gets him and five of his classmates including Clear Rivers (Ali Larter, Varsity Blues, House On Haunted Hill) and Carter Horton (Kerr Smith, TV's "Dawson's Creek") kicked off the plane. As the students watch the plane depart, they witness the horrifying disaster that proves the deadly premonition true. Now having dodged death once, the terror begins in full as fate hunts them down one-by-one. Soon the five survivors will discover you can't cheat death in this bone-chillingly-suspenseful film that critics call "A first class edge of your seat thriller!"
REVIEW:
The movie starts off very good with Alex's premonition. From start to finish, it was very suspenseful because you knew something bad was going to happen by all the given clues. After the premonition, the movie gets even better as the characters get killed off and some of the most wild and crazy ways. "Final Destination" isn't your typical slasher flick because a guy in a mask isn't the one who hacks the teens up... It's death itself!
The death scenes are really cool because the characters die in 'accidental' ways, which takes a big twist and turn on your typical slasher flick. "Final Destination" is all about the deaths and this one has some of the best, but some of the deaths could've used a little more gore. The movie also has a plot, unlike most slasher flicks. Overall, "Final Destination", without doubt, is definately worth a look. Attractive cast with good acting, cool death scenes, and a nice, smooth plot.
3.5/4
