Oh look, Death’s playing the same old game of Whac-A-Mole with forgettable teenagers again. Final Destination: Bloodlines has me wondering if the Grim Reaper is suffering from creative burnout. While the original made me actually care whether those kids escaped their fate, this installment left me rooting for Death to hurry up and get it over with already.

The death scenes? Sure, I winced. I visibly said “ouch” multiple times. But impressive Rube Goldberg-style deaths can’t mask a script that feels like it was written by AI prompted with “give me Final Destination, but worse.”

At least the original had characters with personalities beyond “soon-to-be-dead person #4.” This crew makes you check your watch between kills, wondering how many more have to die before you can leave.

If you’re a die-hard fan of watching attractive people meet spectacularly unattractive ends, you’ll get your money’s worth. For everyone else, Death’s dance card is getting predictable, and frankly, he needs some new moves.

This is a great app. I wish more people would support it

This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let’s you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It’s really a wonderful app. I’ve subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn’t seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven’t tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!

Developers note: RunPee doesn’t make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We’ll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.
