Review of Saw V (2008) by Eddied. — 24 Oct 2008
There has already been a lot of hate for SAW V, but I honestly think everyone needs to back off. Yes, a lot of the movie was flashbacks, but I really think that's what the fans asked for after SAW IV came out.
It seems like this movie is mostly trying to make room for SAW VI, so don't expect a masterpiece. The movie goes further into Hoffman's motive and what happens after the end of SAW IV. And that's another thing.
It's really impossible to like this movie if you haven't seen the previous 4 movies. Most people are ticked off that there are 'a million saws' and stuff like 'they should have stopped at 3'.
SAW also has its competitor, High School Musical 3. A lot of teenage from High School Musical say stuff like 'its just watching people getting tortured, High School Musical is way better.' But SAW is really actually a very smart series that has some big plotline twists, and stuff like that.
But I seriously think that a lot of people who haven't even seen the movie just assume that its 90 minutes of people getting killed. Overall, this is a great addition to a fantastic movie series with lots of scary scenes, and an AMAZING end.
But DO NOT see it if you don't know anything about the rest of the series, or else throughout the movie, you'll only be wondering what is going on.
