This was a fun ride. Right from the beginning, I thought it was going to be another cliched Final Destination opening, but I was wrong. It was very creative and fun.

And after that when we transitioned into present time, I thought the movie would revert back to another cliched killing off of characters one by one. But that tattoo parlour sequence won me over. The tension it built was comedic, intense, and a lot of fun.

Tony Todd's appearance was a sentimental one, and what a send off if this was the last we will see of him. He didn't make a cameo, he was playing a character that had an impact.

This was definitely a fun time at the cinema.
