Watching a Final Destination movie is a lot like being a parent of a toddler for 90 minutes (or 110 minutes, as is the case with this latest instalment). "Don't put that in your mouth." "You'll put your eye out!" "Mind you don't step on that..." The genius of the franchise is that it doesn't have a physical villain. Death itself is the antagonist. Many characters die in the sort of manner that would see them nominated for a Darwin Award but others succumb despite doing their best to avoid trouble. The message is clear: you can't cheat death.

Frank Hanavan's Hoboken is wet. In his streetscapes, surfaces glisten. The sky is rarely glowering, but it does seem full; ready to have something to say, or wrapping up something that it is busy saying. The canopy of foliage that hangs over the streetcorners feels saturated with moisture. Even the shadows on the sidewalk are puddle blue. Businesses have their umbrellas open. A few people do, too.
