Review of Jigsaw (2017) by Adambeam — 04 Nov 2017
The "Saw" films may be Halloween traditions, but the last films in the franchise (5-7) were some of the worst and most confused, incoherent messes ever in any major horror franchise. And now "Jigsaw" is here to continue that tradition.
"Jigsaw" is a mess from beginning to end, it has no idea what it wants to be, or even where it should be in the brain dead timeline of this franchise. The kills are surprisingly tame, and even with the blood, do nothing to stand out from any of the other films, or even the numerous "Saw" ripoffs.
The characters are stock, moronic, and just plain unlikeable, you are given no reason to care for any of these characters. I believe, that out of all these films, "Jigsaw" has the most forced appearances by Tobin Bell, he shows up because the movie tries to used the most obvious, and predictable twist this series could muster up (The movie is set between two timelines, and apparently this counts a prequel too.
