Saw isn't too sharp

Rating: 6/10 (21 May 2005)

Two people wake up chained to pipes on opposite ends of a room, the two must figure out how to get out. This film started off pretty well and stayed that way all the way to the first flashback where it all begin to unravel. I sat there dumbfounded as the movie got worse and worse. Seeing plot holes left and right. The acting ranged from bad to outright crap. The film is less like the roller-coaster ride it was billed as and more like a stupefying free-fall in quality. Everyone says "oh the twist is cool" NOPE, I saw it coming (no pun intended) within five minutes of the start. Deemed one of the best horrors of the year? PLEASE, if that's true I openly weep for the genre, as I had stool samples that were more horrifying by far.
My Grade: D+
