The best horror movie of the decade--no wait, the best horror movie EVER!

Rating: 10/10 (10 December 2006)

Saw. What an amazing film. Not only is it grisly, but it's also very psychological and very disturbing. You should think twice before you do something bad to yourself...Jigsaw might be waiting.
Saw stars Leigh Whannell (writer for Saw II and Saw III), Cary Elwes (Twister, Liar Liar, Ella Enchanted), Danny Glover (Angels in the Outfield, Lethal Weapon, Lethal Weapon 2, Lethal Weapon 3, Predator 2), Ken Leung (X-Men: The Last Stand, Vanilla Sky, Red Dragon), Shawnee Smith (Saw II, Saw III, Carnival of Souls), and Tobin Bell (Saw II, Saw III, Black Mask 2: City of Masks).
Oh, my God! This movie is so scary! It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be before I watched it, but it was still so frightening! I almost peed in my pants when this film was finished! Like 'Se7en', there is a bloodcurdling twist at the end which forces you to let your mouth hang open for the rest of the week. You can't move. You can't think. You can't even breathe. But, since my friend ruined it for me and told me the ending, I wasn't as shocked as I would have been....
Cary Elwes was good and bad at the acting. Like when he cried to get his wife and child back from Jigsaw, he was so horrible at acting! That was a huge disappointment, because Cary is an excellent actor. But, otherwise, he was very good, along with everyone else.
I can't tell you the plot without giving too much away, but I can tell you that it is very well thought out and very tense. Like, you know something is about to happen...but you just don't know when.
This movie is very grisly and graphic and is exceptionally disturbing. Saw is definitely not for children under 15. Fifteen years of age and up can absolutely see this movie without an adult. But fourteen and under absolutely need to be accompanied by an adult if they want to see this movie.
*****MINOR SPOILERS*****
Saw also has very nasty sound effects and frightening images. For example, we see a brief glimpse of bloody intestines. We see a man trigger a tripwire, which activates four guns hanging on the ceiling to shoot a man in head, making several splatters on the wall and a bloody torso. We don't however see the man's head when he gets shot. We only see his head after he gets shot in photographs.
*****MINOR SPOILERS END*****
Overall, this film is the best horror movie ever made (so far). Followed by Saw II and Saw III, and Saw IV hopefully coming out in 2007. See Saw! You WILL NOT be disappointed!
