I openly admit to not being well-versed in the “Final Destination” franchise. In fact, it legitimately surprised me to find out this was the SIXTH movie in a film series that began twenty-five years ago. “Final Destination 5” released in 2011 and was a modest commercial success.

He followed it up with a really good turn in M. Night Shyamalan’s “Trap”. Those are four dramatically different performances in four … Continue reading
