I Saw it

Rating: 6/10 (20 June 2015)

Saw is a grisly film that puts too much emphasis on the graphic scenes rather than the development of characters. I believe that gore in some cases adds realism to some movies and Saw is one of them. I do praise the art direction and the makeup in the film. But the film has many noticeable flaws if you pay attention. This is an example of the idiot game. If people in the movie actually had a brain, the problem would be solved and the movie would be over. One such example is an escaped prisoner of Jigsaw not telling the police where he is located. The police in the movie are relatively weak. I challenge their logic of having two people chase down Jigsaw with a pistol rather than a whole army. Another question that arises is, how does Jigsaw drug his victims? Does he simply knock on people's doors and drug them? According to many audience reviews, the grand majority have seemed to enjoy it. Well, I am not afraid to go against contrary belief. Saw was a decent film that got too carried away with dull scenes in which minimal items of importance occurred.
