    That may not exactly thrill those who admire the Saw films only for their splatter quotient, but all told, this is a more affecting study in grief, guilt and human frailty than "Babel."

    Bottom line, those in the "Saw" factory know their audience and have brought along the appropriate buckets and bibs. Even devotees, however, may note pacing problems and tire of Jigsaw's selective omnipotence.
  3. Just like its increasingly wan antihero, this blood-soaked series is on its last legs.

  1. Surprisingly despite the gruesome cinematography and a cynically unexplained plot, "Saw 3" bests the its other 2 prequels by focusing deeply into character depth. Although the depth is shallow, at least they tried. Expand

  2. Saw III is the most unique entry in the series thus far, Jigsaw's "game" takes a less important role this round for character development, in which you learn more about Amanda and how she's coping with her new life, and it really adds depth and makes her all the more enjoyable, while Jigsaw does still have a victim dealing with the tests, those parts ultimately aren't enjoyable, and one part in particular involving a lady in the freezer made me a little sick, not because it was gory (as there was none in this scene), but because it was just inappropriate, and the fantastic endings these movies are known for isn't here this time, yeah it throws a little twist in, but it was honestly just retarded, honestly it's not the best Saw yet and will divide fans sharply, but if your like me and want to know more about Amanda's character, this does a good job of that, but everything else like plot, action, and the ending all suffer in the end.

    Saw 1 was a good movie with a great ending. Saw 2 was a terrible movie with a decent ending. Saw 3 is just plain terrible. The reasoning behind this movie, in particular, makes me question whether the writers truly had no idea where to go with it. I found the movie tedious and frustrating to watch, and the ending "twist" was laughable. I was so disappointed with this movie after several people told me it was the best in the series. Expand
