redrobin62-321-207311 I stayed with this movie all the way through to the ending because I'm a fan of the entire Saw series. Sure, some were better than others, but once an addict, always an addict.I'm not sure where these 'B' actors came from but they sure tainted an otherwise good production with their horrendous, over the top performances. Tobin Bell, as usual, was his cool and calm collected self. Of course, he is getting up in years, so maybe he doesn't have a choice.I'm not going to give any spoilers away and ruin the movie for people; needless to say, if you're a fan of the series, you'll no doubt also catch this one regardless of how it gets panned by critics. It did deliver in its core essence for being, and that is buckets of blood and gore. If that's your thing, sign up on the dotted line.

kingcaleb-71593 I love the saw franchise, but man I hate to be this guy. Being a fan of the first 6. So 10 years later, bodys start appearing around the area. Obviously people point fingers at the jigsaw killer aka john Kramer or a copycat. As the boring dull police investigation drags, we see 5 victims stranded in a barn with tests yet to complete. Now, I was excited for this. After walking out of the theater, I wasn't just overwhelmed.. But I also thought to myself ".... I know the director of saw 2 didn't put any effort in part 4, but damn..." The traps were uninspired and less creative to the extreme. There was dread/fear in the previous saw movies especially the first 3 but in this one they take all of that away and rely on heavy CGI and easy tame ideas to get filming done quicker... cough cough GRAIN SILO.. cough... SILO WIRES...Borrowing all things from the first 7 and toning everything down is a big mistake especially for a hardcore saw fanatic. Everything felt unfinished and unsatisfying, but I still had high hopes for the "great ending" that the directors were hyping up about. spoilers but.. not just the horrible cgi at the end, but that twist really wasn't a twist to me. It just added something to the timeline that made everything even more complicated... not in a good way either. John CLEARLY said in 7 that Dr Gordon was his very first associate/apprentice. So I just dont see how the barn game/new apprentice thing was all before 1.. just makes it frustrating. overall it was just too tame. I know they were grabbing new viewers to see new life of the saw series but it really was overall recycled ideas executed in the most boring dullest ways... unsatisfying at best.

torstensonjohn Ahhhhhh. I want to play a game...... when will the franchise come to it's senses and end. The storied score of the infamous Jigsaw, (John Kramer), seems to keep finding ways to resurrect the man. Granted, I like Tobin Bell and he brings a sense of empathy towards the character. In each and every film there seems to be a relative or tie that binds the games to him.The traps in this film were not gore fested, not even ingenious. The characters were plausible and only a couple had ties to the origin. NOW, with all that being said these films do lend a twist and turn in each case, however, I was able to see the outcome of this one 20 minutes into it. I actually liked Matt Passmore( The Glades) as one of the leads in this. What can I actually say but I have a soft spot for the franchise. Most will find it routine, dull and even shut it off. I gave it a decent size 6

taisbaumannv 8/10 Acting - Acting is pretty good, i don't see any bad acting, or mistakes. The actors is good at being scared, which is a thing you need in saw!7/10 Plot - Plot is like all the other SAW movies. They get into a game, trying to escape it. Each saw movie has a backstory tho, this one has one as well. 7/10 Characters - You get a good amount of information from the characters, it sometimes made me feel like ''Oh no, i don't want him to die.'' That is a really good thing in a movie. The characters was also extremely important for the whole movie, they are in all saw movies. 7/10 Effects - Good effects, good makeup. Animations is pretty good in this movie. We see some harsh scenes.The movie in itself. This movie was not greater than the other SAW movies. I was more into the other saw movies. But this one was good though! I just like the others better.
