Not half bad!

Rating: 8/10 (17 November 2005)

Was quite impressed by this well wrapped up sickly twisted plot - I was a little apprehensive of 'Saw' at first, what with all the comparisons to 'Se7en' but hey, although not the most original idea, it left me feeling cold, a bit confused and ever so slightly nauseous and let's face it, what's in a film if it can't do any of the above? The acting and characterisation is debatable, especially that of Dr.Gordon's, but this is totally overlooked by the gore, sub-plots and suspense as the audience is led through a series of mind games and deceptions. Got an hour or so to spare? Well worth a look...but not on your own...You have been warned.
