Final Destination 2 [DVD]

As long as a dvd on amazon IS wide screen rather than full on tv, thats a motive.Unfortunately often on details the aspect says not known.

Nothing scratches the itch like a silly bit of teen horror. Grab a few beers and turn your brain off for a couple of hours. Just simple fun.

bought for the hubby he loves these films and has full set of which he says this is one of the best would say watch it to people who like gruesome films i turned away several times

Probably the best mass kill scene in the series with some fun deaths after not quite as good as the original imo but still fun characters as less likeable but not to bad

Nice

After the great success of the first Final Destination movie, the follow up was inevitable, and I suppose so was the third film in due course. Having seen them all I would say that Final Destination 2 is definitley the weakest.The story sees a young girl called Kimberley have a premonition in which a motorway pile up kills dozens of people including her and her friends. When she wakes up she of course avoids the disaster along with a few other cars full of people that she stops from driving into the path of the accident. Of course the result is that once again, the spirit of Death stalks all the survivors to ensure no-one escapes.The car crash that starts the film is pretty excitingly filmed although a road accident does not have quite the same white-knuckle factor as an aeroplane disaster. But what really drags the film down is the introduction of the Clear Rivers character who was a survivor of the first movie. Coming across as a broody, death obsessed know-it-all, Clear Rivers becomes the oracle to which all the cast turn for an explanation of what is happening and how they can fight it. Between the obligatory death scenes, the characters start to unravel the REALLY clumsy formula behind who's turn it is to die next and who might ultimately survive. It must have been an attempt to out-do the first film by introducing a new mythology behind Death's ultimate plan, but it doesn't help the film at all. The other annoying thing is that Kimberley keeps on having more visions before each death and tries to use this power to save their lives but can't really do it very efficiently, and this falls kind of flat too as a plot device because it really goes nowhere - Kimberley's having psychic powers is not investigated in the script and the manifestation of them is very throwaway.What still works reasonably well are the surprise deaths although some of them are rather disappointing. The settings still work as toe-curlers, such as putting the potential victims in the dentists chair, in a hazardous dirty kitchen, or in an elevator, but eventually the spark of the film just sinks under the weight of it's confusing attempts to create a logical pattern for the deaths, and the ponderous revelations (usually delivered by the all-knowing and annoyingly smug Clear Rivers) sound too ridiculous. What also doesn't work is that the survivors handle each death as it comes along with such casualness - it's all me, me, me with no appearance of shock or regret about the loss of other people's lives. And being such a callous bunch does not endear the audience to them!So I ended up feeling kind of let down. The crash is pretty good, but all the waffle is a turn off and it punctures the suspense. The third film in the series drops the link to any previous characters and does a far better job of entertaining by reverting to a much more straightforward format.

This was the only one of all 5 films that I hadn't seen. Loved it! Thanks for sending it so quickly and at a reasonable price.Cheers!

Interesting follow on from the first movie. Nice twists and creative deaths! What more do you want?

Loved this film universe when it first came out, so when I bought a bluray I decided to update my movie collection at the same time as well because I had dvds still, after purchasing this one I sought out the rest of them as well hoping they make more final destination movies

Blu ray bellissimo che terrò gelosamente sigillato

I got this BD yesterday & was expecting a better version than the DVD but unfortunately its the worst bluray Ive gotFirstly there is no startup menu no subtitles pop up menu has just one option of sound no scene selection ( if you have to watch a particular chapter you have to start from begining & manually go to the particular chapter which is frustating after paying almost 35$.) The picture & sound quality are pretty good but the DVD version has much more options than this Bluray. DO NOT BUY THIS BD & GET FOOLED.

Spedizione velocissima, pacchetto integro, film bello. Tutto benissimo

Attention ce DVD n'est pas en français !!!!
