Whistle

Little gothic/emo mashup of Final Destination and Smile with an abundancy of teen angst -- best parts are the dramatic ones, just young people hanging out and kinda wanting/not wanting to die in this cold industrial city of sadness and pain and heartbreak -- and some juicy gore deaths. Horror material could use some freshness -- it looks derivative in so many ways; even epilogue is a carbon coby of Smile 2 finale --, but is good enough. Festival section MVP. Too bad we probably won't get sequels

Generic and derivative. But you still get as a bonus: a collection of meaningless and detestable characters in a mediocre script.

The new gen’s Final Destination. It's cheesy but surprisingly fun. The characters are actually likable, which is a rare win. If they flesh out the mythology in a sequel, I’m definitely in.

Wish Upon meets Final Destination meets The Omen

Really enjoyed this far more than I expected to. Final destination clone like others have mentioned, but still pretty solid in its own right. Some annoying characters, but they kept it pretty engaging throughout it's 1hr40 runtime. Don't leave/turn it off before the mid credits scene ;) 7.0

Decent little final destination clone. Never really as fun or creative as that series at its best. Never scary but has a couple moments where they let the gore go a little wild. Feels a bit too melodramatic at points (a guy is literally sitting on his roof in a rain that turns to blood) bashing together with a frantic nature where THINGS ARE HAPPENING. Let it breathe a little damn. Makes its a bit tedious to hang with.

I'm usually up for any twist on "Final Destination", but this is so by the numbers even a couple of well staged deaths can't save it.

I have to give it points for style, casting, and some fun practical effects, as well as a great use of budget. Still, it is narratively stretched in many ways. It's hard to decipher exactly what the massive plan to cheat death was in the third act. Even as a gimmick popcorn horror flick (a genre I adore btw) the cliches were strong with this one. That said, it's clear that this was a passion project of sorts for director Corin Hardy, and you can feel the love for filmcraft throughout.
