    This was the film that was supposed to end the franchise, and while it may have technically ended it, it wasn’t really the ending that fans were hoping for. By this point, the franchise had been played out, and needed a break. The traps in this movie were pretty much made for the sole reason of being in 3D, so they ended up being underwhelming comp...

    They should have titled this movie “Flashback” because that’s all that really seems to be going on here. Maybe the producers realized that a year had passed and not everyone could have remembered the mediocre film that is next on our list, so they had to use Saw 5to get us all caught up again. Aside from those problems, there are a few cool traps –...

    Saw 4is where things started to get bad. The traps just became too unrealistic (even by horror movie standards) and the reasons that the victims were “playing the game” became dumb. The cop in this film, Daniel Rig (played by Lyriq Bent) is punished for trying to rescue Jigsaw’s victims. That’s it. That’s the reason why he must go through all of th...

    Saw 6 isn’t exactly good movie, but it is a step up from 4 and 5, if that’s saying anything. It has some clever traps (if you can look past the fact that we are supposed to believe that one person did all of this) and had an overall interesting message about life and death. My problem with this film, was if John Kramer was wronged by the insurance ...

    Jigsaw is sort of like Saw 6. It isn’t really a good movie, but it’s not as bad as what we’ve seen before – it just doesn’t capture what made the first few films so interesting. It does, however, at least try to take the franchise to a different place, and you can see that early on. There are some good traps in the movie and even a really clever on...

    Despite being an attempt to take the Saw franchise in anew direction, Spiral is more of the same – except it has Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson. It’s directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, who directed Saw 2-4and you can tell. If the idea was to take it somewhere new, maybe they should have brought in a new director to give the franchise some fresh blo...

    The franchise made its biggest mistake in this film – killing off Tobin Bell’s Jigsaw character. After this film, none of the movies really compared and became far too unrealistic to be anything other than entertaining for fans of gore. While that is fine, the thing that made the Saw movies popular wasn’t just the gore – it was the psychological as...

    Director James Wan left after the first movie, while writer Leigh Whannell stayed on for this one and Saw 3. For the most part, Saw 2is a pretty good horror movie and features a pretty big surprise at the end, leaving fans wanting more. Amanda being Jigsaw’s disciple was huge and almost on par with the twist at the end of the first film. It also in...

    Not much of a shocker here, as Sawis (and is regarded as) the best film in the franchise. The film’s twist was one of the best ever in a horror movie (or any movie for that matter) and had a pretty basic setup when you compare it to the ridiculous lengths we saw the franchise go later on. Cary Elwes and Leigh Whannell give great performances (espec...

  2. The movie's biggest flaw is that it is by far the most unrealistic of the series and relies too much on chance within the story. Too many events are contingent on others, which makes Jigsaw look almost clairvoyant. However, I was able to look past this and enjoy the fourth Saw film. Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) is dead.

  5. Darren Lynn Bousman has helmed all but the first of the Saw films, and "Saw IV" succeeds in following in the previous films’ stylistic and generic footsteps. Opening on the autopsy of Jigsaw, the series’ moralistic madman, "Saw IV" plows ahead with its primary antagonist lying on a table, his ribcage splayed open.
