I just got back from seeing Saw and I was impressed.
**SPOILERS**
The movie starts with Adam played by Leigh Whannell waking up in a dirty disgusting bath tub. He is in the dark and not aware of where he is. Then the lights come on and he is all of a sudden in a disgustingly dirty bathroom with someone else. The man he is with is Doctor Lawrence Gordon played by Cary Elwes. The are both chained to pipes and not aware of how they got there.
The film goes indepth of a killer named Jigsaw. He makes people kill eachother because they are hateful of their pretty decent lives. After clues are found the two men try to figure everything out. The do flash backs of other characters like Detective David Tapp played by the man himself Danny Glover and Dr. Gordon's wife Alison played by Monica Potter.
This film is pretty wacked on a few levels....Not alot of blood but some sweet scenes of someone getting their guts rippped out and someone sawing their own foot off. Also a nice throat slash. The greatest invention ever by the way is the reverse bear trap lol. Overall the acting is kind of dull. Cary Elwes is kind of a cry baby and Leigh Whannell needs some lessons. Danny Glover did a great job as a detective again, reminiscant of 'Lethal Weapon.' All in all this is a great thriller that will keep you guessing over and over. This is film is not like Se7en. Se7en is far supperior but this is a good movie nontheless.
I give it a 3 1/2 skulls out of 5.
