High school senior Wendy's premonition of a deadly rollercoaster ride saves her life and a lucky few, but not from death itself — which seeks out those who escaped their fate.

Reviews
Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Hayleigh Joseph This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.
Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
adonis98-743-186503 A student's premonition of a deadly rollercoaster ride saves her life and a lucky few, but not from Death itself, which seeks out those who escaped their fate. Final Destination 3 once again makes for a suprisingly great sequel with the same creepy and disturbing factor being put on the test for sure since some deaths were pretty damn 'jeez' like alot. The perfomances were very good once again and the special effects quite believable for at least 85% of the entire movie. If you loved the first 2? You're going to enjoy this one as well, trust me!!!! (7.5/10)
TheLittleSongbird 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.The bigger and bolder 'Final Destination 2' had its flaws but was just as good and perhaps the best of the four sequels. 'Final Destination 3' is just as big and bold, as well as gorier, and is also as good. 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. The novelty has not yet worn off and in a way is more refined.Sure, the story is more of the same and formulaic. Meanwhile, there is too much dull downtime between deaths where dialogue and exposition can be clumsy at times.The special effects are not always brilliant and the characters are as shallow as ever.However, 'Final Destination 3' is as atmospheric and stylish as its previous two films. The music has a haunting eeriness and James Wong does a more than competent job in the director's chair, showing a genuine understanding of the concept and the horror genre, breathing atmosphere, fun and freshness into a tried and tested formula and not losing what made his direction work in the first film.Like the second, although there is a little too much of an over-reliance on gore, not all of it necessary, the death scenes are bolder, more elaborate and more creative (faring even better in this regard actually). The tanning bed and nail gun deaths were particularly good and two of the best and most imaginative of the series. The script has some wonderful humour that is black and ironic and has just as much tension and a sense of dread. The amusement park/roller-coaster scene is not as good as the opening scenes in the previous films, especially visually, but it's still very scary. The photo record is surprising and there is an intricacy in places.'Final Destination 3' has the best ending perhaps of the series, to me it's the least contrived and more logical than the one in particularly the second film. In the acting stakes, it fares favourably too. Mary Elizabeth Winstead is very good.Overall, a good deadly ride that's worth getting on board for, as long as one knows what to expect. 7/10 Bethany Cox
a_chinn "X-Files" veterans Glen Morgan and James Wong return to the franchise they created and make a third film that's about as good as the original, but that's not saying too much since the first film was kind of a mixed bag. Completely ignoring the first two films, this one starts with an entirely new set of teens, led by Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who while taking pictures at the carnival with her new fangled digital camera has a premonition of death that she and her friends are all about to be killed on a roller-coaster. As with the prior films, they "cheat" death by not going on the roller-coaster that soon kills a slew of people and they are then each killed or nearly killed in various elaborate sequences. Wong and Morgan do come up with more interesting of sequences and build better suspense than part two, and they actually do improve on the first film with having a more likable of leading character in Winstead, though credit probably goes to Winstead and not Wong and Morgan (though Wong and Morgan probably do get credit for including a Joey Ramone bobble-head in Winstead's bedroom). As with the other films, this isn't a classic, but is watchable for horror fans.
vengeance20 Remember seeing this advertised on a Film magazine in 2006 the year this was released & wanted to wanted to watch it as it had a roller-coaster in it. Course, I was 11 when I did & never got the chance to watch it. It was only until 2011 with Final Destination 5 being released I got the chance to watch this one. Wendy has a premonition that she & her friends will die in a roller-coaster derailment on The Devils Flight! Like the previous 2 films they cheat death & have death come after them, this time around the photos of each victim & how they'll die, similar to The Omen film in 1976. This is how they cheat Death... sort of. With the absence of Bludworth with only his voice used in the Devils Flight statue! Which was intimidating!It was a really good watch! Liked the roller-coaster as I'm a coaster enthusiast & liked the film as a whole! It was a decent watch with decent death scenes in it!The deaths were quite good in this one, the premonition of the roller-coaster was great & very sinister looking! The looks on their faces was priceless! Not to mention the deaths & how well they were executed (no pun intended). The one at the gym was great along with the tanning salon with the fit girls!It was overall a great film in the series, can't think of anything negative about it. It was a great 3rd entry! 8/10
