I watched it just now. It was about as good as the second one.
I liked the deaths. They were bloody as hell. Many of them were predictable as I expected. But I was pleasantly surprised when a couple of them were almost as unpredictable as the first. That is what I liked about the original. The deaths were great and you never saw them coming.
The story was lacking. It felt like a lazy version of the original. While Alex was trying to find clues around him, only to figure it out after it was too late, Wendy just looked at pictures and figured them out with ease. Some of the clues were really cheesy too, such as the entire gym scene.
And in the original, it was a group of kids trying to survive, and dying along the way. In this, it was more just a couple kids going around to various places to meet the other survivors, tell them about Death, and watch them get killed. It didn't flow as well as the original did.
It really could've used a Tony Todd cameo.
It was cool to see Kris Lemche in this. Though his acting style fit better in Ginger Snaps as the know-it-all of myths, rather than in this, just another skeptic.
And the ending was cool. I liked how
Spoiler:
the vision thing happened again to her, but this time she had no way to stop it. Though the "180" clue was pretty cheesy as well.

I liked the ending. The clues were lame but I liked how
Spoiler:
she got the vision too late and couldn't cheat death again.

yeah, I didn't like the ending, but I liked how it was different from all the other endings 🙂
i cant remember what the jump to the right ending was...uhh.....hmmm...
also, someone brought up the 2nd movie didnt make sense bc they live at the end and that contradicts the first movie bc the same loophole was used or something. Well, if you choose "read the map" it says that the 2 survivors from FD2 were sucked into a woodchipper and they both died, so someone must have caught that mistake.
