However, 'Final Destination 3' is as atmospheric and stylish as its previous two films. The special effects are not always brilliant and the characters are as shallow as ever. Meanwhile, there is too much dull downtime between deaths where dialogue and exposition can be clumsy at times. Sure, the story is more of the same and formulaic. The novelty has not yet worn off and in a way is more refined. Second sequels or third instalments of a franchise don't always fare well, especially in horror and comedy, 'Final Destination 3' is one of the better examples in a genre where sequels have a patchy history. 'Final Destination 3' is just as big and bold, as well as gorier, and is also as good. The bigger and bolder 'Final Destination 2' had its flaws but was just as good and perhaps the best of the four sequels. While it was not a great or perfect film (particularly in the dialogue, ending and some of the acting), the first 'Final Destination' was entertaining and effective (especially with its terrific opening plane sequence and the creative deaths) with a fascinating idea done well.
