The Final Destination 9/8-9/13

The Final Destination, a movie recently released in theatres.  While a lot of the scenes were incredibly gory, nauseating and crude, the plot was heavily enveloped the concept of death.  Death is a magnificent mystery, really.  One can never know when it will attack them, if it’s haunting them or how long it’s been haunting them.  This movie is about a group of people who escape death once, and are haunted by it time and time again, and defending by taking the necessary precautions to avoid it.   At first they start realizing that people are dying in the order of the protagonists dream, in which he foresaw the death.  Then the protagonist also has dreams about how people will die. So it brings up the questions of if dreams relate to death, what it means when you see death in your dreams, if dreams relate to life, and how dreams relate to real life.  It also brings up questions in death; are people meant to die in a certain order, and does death haunt people even if they escape death?  The movie goes about and answers these questions that his dreams directly relate to the incidents that occur, and death will always come back to haunt you if you escape it.  In conclusion, The Final Destination is a great movie that has you thinking about deep life concepts.
