Review of Saw (2004) by Tom W — 15 Apr 2017
Two ordinary men (Cary Elwes, Leigh Whannell) find themselves chained up in a filthy bathroom with no ideas regarding how either of them ended up there. Now, these two men must try to figure out what happened before they ended up in the room, so they can figure out the man responsible for their unnecessary imprisonment in the gruesome horror film, Saw.
I will give the filmmakers credit for at least one thing: the premise makes us feel grateful that we are not in their shoes and makes us wonder what we would do in their situation. That being said, Saw is not that pleasant a film to sit through because it is so grungy, painful, repulsive, and downbeat in terms of its subject matter.
