A total botch of a film

Rating: 5/10 (28 October 2006)

I was very excited about the 3rd installment of the saw series. I always enjoyed psychological thrillers; however, the makers of this film totally disregarded the premise set in the previous two films in exchange for a gore fest which, at the end, really leaves the audience pretty upset.
There's so much going on in this movie that is completely ridiculous (Tobin Bell's character still being alive, Lacy performing open head surgery with a power drill, etc etc). Unlike the previous two films, this one focuses less on story and more on gore/torture scenes. If you are a fan of the series because it was an intriguing story, stay away from Saw III because it will leave you with a bad taste in your mouth, and it won't come from the excessive amounts of gore/blood the makers of this film decided to include.
