Not a Very Gratifying Experience

Rating: Null/10 (14 November 2004)

I think the most a person can hope for with a movie like this is to be sent out of the theater surprised. Movie goers are willing to forgive a lot of faults if all the pieces fall together in the end. This movie did not have an easy task, we've all seen this hand played before, but I think they could have done better. The movie really has no final payoff, none of the pieces fall together, we don't even get the obligatory explanation scene. I find this to be unacceptable, I think it might have something to do with Saw 2, seems like a pipe dream to me.
A lot of people have been bringing up Seven. I agree that Saw is very much influenced by David Fincher, but I think it is closer to The Game.
*Spoiler* One more thing, what did the guy with the key in his belly do to deserve being gutted while still alive?
Brilliant American Accent Cary, ask your voice coach how to correctly pronounce "murder."
