Review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports 48% of critics gave the film positive write - ups based on 109 reviews, with an average rating of 5 / 10 . The site's consensus of opinion is that "This sequel is little more than an excuse to stage elaborate, gory scenes of characters getting killed off ."

On June 14, 2010, Nick Hyman of Metacritic included Final Destination 2 in the website's editorial 15 Movies the Critics Got Wrong, denoting that "the elaborate suspense / action set pieces from the first two films are more impressive than most ." </P> <P> Negative evaluations condemned the film's plot, acting, and screenplay . Roger Ebert of Chicago Sun - Times groused that "perhaps movies are like history, and repeat themselves, first as tragedy, then as farce ." James Berardinelli of ReelViews stressed that "the movie mandates complete gullibility and vacuous attention in order to work on any level ." Claudia Puig of USA Today groused on how that "there is an audience for a movie in which innocent people suffer hideous accidental deaths is troubling enough, but a group of creative people chose to direct their energies on this repulsive spectacle (which) simply provokes disgust ." Justine Elias of The Village Voice asserted that "this risible thriller is merely a sadistic series of misread premonitions and vile murders ." David Grove of Film Threat stated that "(he) wasn't much scared by anything in Final Destination 2 which is silly and illogical ." Jeff Vice of Deseret News censured to "not even get into the awful script or the numbingly awful performances"; while Bruce Fretts of Entertainment Weekly reviled "everything else about the film is also deadly ." </P> <P> Conversely, other columnists applauded the film's comedic theme . A.O. Scott of The New York Times imparted "it's not as cheekily knowing as the Scream movies or as trashily Grand Guignol as the Evil Dead franchise, but like those pictures it recognizes the close relationship between fright and laughter, and dispenses both with a free, unpretentious hand ." C.W. Nevius of San Francisco Chronicle conveyed its "funnier than the original ." Maitland McDonagh of TV Guide pronounced "if this is your idea of fun, step right up ." William Arnold of Seattle Post-Intelligencer found it as "a series of Grand Guignol skits played for mean - spirited laughs ." Marc Savlov of Austin Chronicle admired how "it is surprisingly good fun for the current crop of horror films, reasonably well - plotted and full of jaw - dropping, white - knuckle scares . That said, it's most definitely not for the squeamish nor the easily offended ." Nev Pierce of BBC saw that "it's simple, but effective"; whereas Sheila Norman - Culp of The Atlanta Journal - Constitution proclaimed that "what Final Destination did for the fear of flying, Final Destination 2 does for the fear of driving ." </P>
