I think this was the best Final Festination since Final Destination.
I've watched them all and with 2, 3 and 4 it seemed like they were just going for gorier and gorier deaths and the characters didn't have much depth - it was all about the gore.
With this one though I thought the characters were fantastic - there was a lot of humour which was actually funny, the acting was a decent improvement over 2, 3 and 4, and dat ending...
*spoilers below*
When they thought they had beaten death and they got on the plane, only for us to see it's THAT plane... awesome!
