BUT DOESN'T THERE COME a POINT in TIME WHEN YOU'VE UNLEASHED SO MUCH UNMITIGATED BAD KARMA and VISUAL SEWAGE into the WORLD THAT COMMON HUMAN DECENCY COMES INTO PLAY, and YOUR CONSCIENCE TELLS YOU to FINALLY JUST...STOP??
APPARENTLY, IF YOU'RE the FOLKS WHO MAKE THE SAW MOVIES...NO!
PLEASE FEEL FREE to VENT, RANT and RAVE AGAINST THIS ASSAULT on HUMAN TASTE and DIGNITY to YOUR HEART's CONTENT BELOW...
SCARED DUDE: "Wait a second, I only said I wanted to MIME being inside a glass box..."
Well, from what I heard, there will be at least ONE more movie after this one. The problem is this: the movies are made dirt cheap, with no-name directors and cast, then make triple their money back. Stupid teenagers race to go see these movies because they have been so accustomed to blood and gore that they find more humor than fear in them. This is what freaks me out the most -- that a generation can actually LAUGH at the sight of people being killed in slow, painful ways. That's just sick!
You can blame the studios for greenlighting this crap as a Halloween tradition, but fault also falls squarely on the foolish teens who throw down their parents' money to see them.
Remember, paying for movies is like casting a vote for President -- The more "votes" a certain series of movies gets, the more sequels they will make...

The director's name is David Hackl-- I don't know if I should make a pun about his lack of directing ability, or about how he made a hack-and-slash flick...
This series would be better if they paid more attention to the philosophy present in these movies instead of the torture.
Actually, stretching that death philosophy over six films isn't a good idea. I think we get the idea that people behave noticeably different when death is close by with only one movie. Maybe the creators of the SAW series should pay attention to America's and its somewhat contradictory views on violence.

At least one? I hate to break this to you, but the scriptwriters are already doing overtime...if they aren't, they will be in about 10 minutes...to wit:
Saw vs. Freddy
Saw vs. Jason
Saw vs. Michael
Saw vs. Alien
Saw vs. Predator
Sawma Mia! (if nothing else, an apt title for the opening number at this year's Razzies)
Saw: The Christmas Special
Saw and Larry the Cable Guy: The Second Christmas Special
Mass Murder Musical (starring Saw, Freddy, Jason, Michael, Alien and Predator
Mass Murder Musical 2
Mass Murder Musical 3 (the first two will be released on cable on the Sci Fi Channel. You'll have to go the the theater to see the 3rd one.)
Saw vs. Rambo
Rocky VII: Rocky vs. Saw
The possibilities are endless, but this is getting out of hand. Besides, if I tell you who is going to host the MTV Movie Awards next summer, you won't be surprised.
HEY!!! What the h*ll is that guy doing wearing an aquarium on his head? And why am I suddenly reminded of Robot Monster?
I'm thinking that is the weirdest thing anyone has stuck on their head since Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium

How should I start this? Although I'm a Saw fan, I was severely disappointed by this movie. Yeah, it's not the worst. That would go to part II, although, ironically, that's the best in the series that can be watched over and over again. This movie was just...pointless, you know? Here's what you can expect: New torture devices and new characters. Of course, that's what all the Saw movies are but to devoted Saw fans, like myself, these movies are made to continue a continuous but convoluted storyline, which is, more or less, the main reason to continue to see these films. After all, part VI will be the last, right? Let's hope so.
If you have seen every Saw film so far, you can expect Saw's I-III is a trilogy AND expect Saw's III-V to be another part of a trilogy. That's really, I must say, ingenious, because I like to think the series that way but here's the problem that emerges: This movie is very pointless. If Saw's III-V is a trilogy, which they really are, this movie adds little to nothing on the storyline. Well, that's just my opinion. Many may say the best part of the film are the flashbacks. Well, these flashbacks also do not add a thing to the whole storyline. We can, more or less, assume that happened because we're smart that way. This is why I'm so disappointed about this film. In the whole franchise, this movie contributed the least to the storyline is basically what I'm trying to say.
Oh, and you cannot believe how it ends. And I say that as a bad thing because it's basically a set up to the sixth film. Think of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest's ending because that film also sets up for the third movie. If you take this film away, the whole series would still make sense. Oh, and if you think new directors and writers will at least add some originality to this franchise, they do. In fact, the first 20-30 minutes of the film had me beaming because it was less about the traps and more about the plot. That's until I realized this movie added little to nothing to the plot and the whole movie was back to torturing "unworthy" people that need to be "rehabilitated" going through elaborate torture devices. But, as crazy as this may sound, I found that the best part of the film.
The whole plot seemed to bore me. It was all uninteresting. So now, I've created a huge paradox: I wanted the movie to continue the storyline yet the storyline is uninteresting by now and I liked it that they didn't focus on more victims and torture devices for the first twenty minutes yet I found that to be the best part of the remaining of the film. Lots to take in, right? Anyway, I do think this movie were made for the fans and not for average movie goers looking for scares because if you haven't noticed these movies AREN'T scary, you shouldn't be the ones watching it. Overall, I think this film will disappoint many fans and added nothing to the storyline at all. Probably rent it if you're a fan. 5/10
So there will actually be Saw VI? I guess that will come out October 23rd 2009 -- so the whole "You will never believe how it ends" was a cover up for part 6? Genius! You have to hand it to Lionsgate!

...And that is why Lionsgate is neck-and-neck with 20th Century Fox for the potential Worst Studio Razzie Award.

Don't forget saturnwatcher, SAW Movie, starring sub par comedians in a film that is supposed to spoof the SAW series, but in reality, is only loaded with unfunny pop culture references and is rated PG-13.
