Twisted, Disturbing, Very Original & Clever

Rating: 8/10 (7 October 2004)

I SAW it last night expecting it to be a very good film, and it certainly was! It's the kind of film that looked amazing in the distinctable trailer that looked disturbing. Without giving anything away, there are quite a few NASTY concepts in the film that make you cringe - some of the memorable ones are: a jaw snapper, an automatic firing squad, spaghetti junction in razor, barbed wire, but for me the moment that most affected me and made my skin crawl was when Lawrence resulted to shoving a shirt in his mouth to decrease the volume of his screaming & cut off his bloody supply leading to his foot, and then he CUT his own FOOT OFF with the SAW!!! There was something about the way Lawrence said to Adam he'll get help that made me Laugh, maybe because of how OVER THE TOP he acted it - to a point of making the scene CHEESY. The SCRIPT writing of this film was very carefully thought of and it actually included some very humorous sentences. The conclusion was quite confusing for me because somethings weren't fully explained in an easy way to understand, but after the film and I started thinking about it, it was such a CLEVER & ORIGINAL film, that at times was genuinely SCARY & JUMPY. It is without a doubt one of the best HORROR in a long time! I'll recommend it to anyone who wants a film that is so TENSE all the way & a film that makes you THINK & of course someone who wants a REAL FRIGHT! I will never look at a saw in the same way ever again, & surely neither will you! Two final words, SEE-SAW!!!
