Saw-What did yall think?
Alright any movie that I think might of been good and never saw in theaters I usually buy when it comes out. I was wondering what people thought of Saw because I was gonna buy it this week but decided to wait and see what yall say.

Tons of otherp people say that its good and im guessing some are right because the Saw 2 is in the works. I just want to know what the fellow TPWW people think.

Should I purchase this movie or not?

Saw 2 will suck and won't work. You'll understand when you see the first one.

I loved the first one though.

I think there's a thread on this already from its theatrical release.

Anyways, it was ok. More of a thriller than a horror movie, ala Se7en. The acting is god awful but overall it is definitly worth seeing. Thought the idea was really good and for the most part it was well executed. Some of it I just thought bogged it down is all.

It's a good flick. It does somewhat drag halfway in it I thought. It was also interesting to see the different "traps" there were. There were somethings that could have been developed better I thought. Overall though it was interesting. If you like puzzle movies and aren't looking for a brilliant movie I suggest it. It is somewhat rewatchable too. I will eventually purchase it, but I do buy a lot of dvds.

Thought it was toss, but I hate like every horror movie ever except for the ring, so I'm probably not the person to go off as far as horror goes.

I thought it was pretty good. Not very scary at all, but had a good amount of supence and thought put into it. There were a few things that made no sense once it was over, but overall its something thats fun to watch. I liked the whole idea of those two being in the room and one having to figure out a way to kill the other. It would have been better if the Doctor guy was really in to get the other one.

Just watched it the other night......I thought it was pretty good.

It wasnt as gory as many people make it out to be. Everyone I knew said that it was a pretty gory film but the only thing that was gory in any way about it was part of the end...and to me that doesnt really count as gore.

Knowing that there is a second Saw in the works makes me a little now that I know the first one was pretty good. I dont know how they would work it out unless they had it that the girl who survived from the first movie attempts to track down Jigsaw or something. Either way im sure it will kick ass.

I just seen this movie literally 2 minutes ago. I managed to go this whole time without having the movie spoiled for me.

This movie was borderline brilliant. I say borderline because theres were a couple things i didnt think should or could happen. First let me start by saying , at the beginning when Zeb first showed his face. I literally sat there and said this is bullshit. I thought for sure he was the guy. He was the mastermind. I was somewhat pissed but decided to let the movie play out.

Once the actual "Sawing" began i had a " CUT THAT MEAT" moment. Though i also was pissed cause if he would have turned over that box he would have reached the phone and he wouldnt have had to do all that junk. Ofcourse little did i know, it didnt matter because of the ending.

The ending could only be compared to busting your load in the hottest blonde in the worlds face. The movie was so well excuted that i literally went from being pissed off cause i thought i knew what was going on. To jumping off my couch and screaming " Holy shit! Holy shit!". The ending wrapped up all the loose ends in one climatic scene where the true mastermind revealed himself was one of the best 5 minute scenes in a suspense movie i have ever seen.

As for the acting. I didnt have a problem with the guy who played Adam. There was a few times where i thought he could have delivered a line a litte better but overall he was decent. The guy who played the Dr. was down right horrible. I dont know if it was the bad accent he was trying to carry or not. But i just couldnt get into this guy. I honestly think it was probably that horrible rich guppy somewhat foriegn accent he was trying to deliver when he was saying his lines , that threw him off. If this guy didnt have to use that accent and he was just a regular good'ole american doctor, I think he would have been fine. I kept thinking to myself " Man if Morgan Freeman was playing the ex-cop role instead of Danny Glover, this movie would kick even more ass" but obviously you cant change things now.

Overall despite questionable acting and casting. This movie was broderline brilliant and totally worth 8.50 to see at the theatre or the 19.99 to buy from the video store. Renting it does no justice in my opinion. You have to have this movie in your collection.

I'm curious. Who wrote the script for this movie. Who directed it and did either of them get nominated for anything ?

I liked it. There is no reason to make a sequel as the ending is just the best way to end any movie, which just tells you how I think. Cary Elwes could have done less overracting, IMO though. He was bad.
