Review of Saw VI (2009) by Johnny T — 06 Mar 2011
Who knew that the franchise's creators would eventually find a plot twist that made sense? There's still too much flashback material here about apprentices and evil cops. But if you've ever raged at nameless, insensitive service people, you won't mind seeing them strapped into a rotating turret, the shotgun cocking. Warm feelings are inspired by the reappearance of old friends, even those who had their faces ripped off or their intestines ejected several films ago. Intense, relentlessly horrifying, disgusting and often implausible, but surprisingly intriguing at times. It won't earn the franchise many new fans, but Saw VI is a surprising step up for what has become an intricately grisly annual tradition.
VERDICT:"Matinée" - (Mixed reaction). These kinds of movies are usually movies that had some good things, but some bad things kept it from being amazing. This rating says to pay matinée prices to see at a theatre or buy an ex rental or a cheap price the DVD to own.
