Nothing like Se7en

Rating: 2/10 (12 June 2005)

Se7en and saw both have a murderer – check! They both have a black detective – check! And here the similarities end.
From the amateurish acting of Leigh Whannell (Adam) in the very beginning of the movie, to several minor plot holes, the movie gets worse and worse. The plot holes is not easy provable, but more like the typical annoying B-movie symptoms like: "Why the h... didn't he just ...", and the defender of the movie could of course say: "well, maybe he just didn't want to". The acting of panic and fear is at its best as good as the acting you would perform as a joke with your friends. The characters don't react to things the way people do. They constantly do stupid things, carrying their ridiculous face expressions. I'm sorry – I have nothing good to say about Saw. OK, I'll give it one extra star for the visual effects.
I love Se7en, I don't understand the comparisons – I certainly never would compare it to a such a crappy movie like this.
