A great movie.

Rating: 10/10 (27 February 2005)

Two men Dr Gordan (Cary Elwes) and Adam (Leigh Whannel - Scriptwriter) find themselves chained to some pipes in a dingy bathroom, with a body, a gun, dicta-phone and two hacksaws. They soon realise they are victims of the serial killer 'Jigsaw.' One of them has to kill the other before 6 o' clock or they will die, and the hacksaws aren't for the ankle-cuffs...
The horror genre has been a little weak with movies like The Grudge and Godsend. Saw puts them to shame. With Leigh Whannels excellent script and James Wan's (Director) energetic verve, its a teeth-grinding slalom between lock-jaw tension and sadistic horror. With a twist you WILL not see coming. This is a great turn from these young Aussie film-makers and maybe they will bring back some good films for the horror genre.
