Final Destination Bloodlinesis one of the hits of the summer so far, and is by far the most critically acclaimed in the franchise, which is perhapsnot an attribute that can be awarded toI Know What You Did Last Summer.Because of this success, which has seenBloodlinesearn a huge 93% on review aggregatorRotten Tomatoes, the franchise as a whole is benefitting, with many heading back to catch up on what came before in this gory, murderous franchise. As of June 09, 2025,Final Destination 3is officially one of the ten most-streamed movies on Tubi in the U.S. perFlixPatrol.
Despite being considered one of the worst entries in the franchise, with just 44% from critics and 57% from audiences onRotten Tomatoes,Final Destination 3is riding on the coattails of the latest installment and finding unlikely streaming success almost two decades after its release. The threequel, which starsPretty Little LiarsalumRyan MerrimanandMary Elizabeth Winsteadamong others, is currently the ninth most-watched movie on the site, only outperforming the 2007Timothy Olyphant-ledHitman, which sits at #10.

Was ‘Final Destination 3’ a Box Office Hit?
The third installment in theFinal Destinationfranchisemight’ve underwhelmed critics, but that was nothing new for movies of such bloodthirsty taste in the mid-noughties. At the box office, the film proved much more successful, proving once again thathorror might just be the best genre to turn small budgets into financial fortune. On a reported $25 million production budget,Final Destination 3earned an impressive$112 million globally, split between a $54 million domestic haul and a further $58 million from overseas markets. This total makes the film the third-worst performing in the franchise’s history in financial terms, ahead of the first two movies and behind the subsequent three.
