Review of Jigsaw (2017) by Moviemitch96 — 27 Oct 2017
The Saw franchise returns seven years after the not-so-final chapter was released, continuing the beaten dead horse tradition of horror franchises returning for more quick cash grabs after supposedly being done a la Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, etc.
After seeing this one just for kicks and giggles, I can confidently say that this did not warrant resurrecting this franchise at all! The characters were all dumb and unlikable, the dialogue was unbelievably clumsy and absurd quite often throughout, and of course, the ending deliberately left the door open for potential sequels to follow, go figure! Overall, I'd find it difficult to picture even die-hard Saw fans finding much to like about this one, other than the expected gore and over-the-top deaths, because in terms of story and acting, this one hits an all new low for the franchise.
