I do not understand how a film like this gets made.

Rating: 1/10 (1 November 2004)

After 10 minutes of viewing this movie, I already knew something. I knew that for the first time I was going to be able to say that I have seen the worst movie of my life, and actually mean it. Normally after a lousy movie concludes, my friends and I joke sarcastically and poke fun at the film we just 'endured', but after viewing the 'suspense, horror, thriller, whatever' movie "Saw", I can honestly say that cinema cannot get any worse. In fact, the movie actually changed my life. I am an aspiring screen-writer, and the simple fact that a script/story so horrible can get funded, produced, and made into a Hollywood film gives me hope for my own future in Tinsel Town. If this movie can get made, than why not mine? I suspected at times during the film if the persons involved in the making of the movie even viewed the final version before distributing it. I am not being sarcastic when I say that I laughed more at this movie than I do at some of todays most high profile comedies being released, and I was not the only one in the theatre. I choose not to comment on any specifics of the film, for I do not want to ruin the experience for anyone that has not seen it, and it is indeed an experience. I will leave you with this note; Cary Elwes performance in this film should be the example used in acting classes across the world of exactly what not to do in your profession. He was so embarrassing, I felt uncomfortable watching him. Poor Danny Glover needs another Lethal Weapon movie if these are the scripts he's accepting these days. Enough said, enjoy.
