Finally Saw this Movie.

Rating: 6/10 (23 April 2007)

Like everyone has seen this movie. So finally, I rent it. ALl the hype might have hurt my response.
SAW was good but not great. Cary Elwes (?) did not act scared enough for me. His wife, yeah, his daughter, yeah, his bathroom buddy, a little better. Explain to me why this was called SAW... Jigsaw would have been better. So someone saws their foot off... big deal. I still have no idea why these people other than the doctor were pulled into Jigsaw's evil plan.
The guy from LOST (Zep) had nothing to do with this... he was actually nice to Jigsaw and was repayed by involving him. Also, the guy who took pictures of the good doctor was loosely related. He was hired by Danny Glover's character but he didn't know why he was taking photos and he only wanted to pay the rent. The notion that Jigsaw never actually killed anyone is stupid. He kills the last guy by not letting him go.
The acting was by the main characters was average and I didn't believe they were scared half the time. The plot was decent but the writer failed to really give reasons to include some of the characters in the twisted game. I will be watching the rest of them soon but I will be going into those hoping for improvement.
