    Saw 6 deserves kudos for taking a franchise that had completely run itself into the ground and actually making an entertaining and satisfying saw movie in terms of story, characters and horror/action

      Hey Cody!
      Greetings from London!
      I have to make a request, would you consider doing an in depth review of 'The Thing'?
      As I am typing this I am watching 'Brightburn' on good old Netflix, I am completely stuck in the middle, a short but sweet thrill ride or a missed opportunity to make an epic with a great premise?
      Still, at least it is not a disappointment like 'The Predator', give me strength. I can handle bad movies but that was soul crushing.
      😞.
      Hey guys, if you were on a desert Island, you had a choice of one movie to watch, what would you choose from the following? Live or die?
      A. The Thing
      B. An American werewolf in London
      C. Texas Chainsaw massacre
      D Jaws
      Good luck!

    I love saw 4 man. I just. Rewatched it recently very analytically. I do believe it’s underrated in the fact that it’s better than Saw 5,6,7,8 and 9. It was the last movie to really feel “Saw”. Each film after that felt disconnected with its multiple plots going on. In 4 it’s a new game, the idea of a second apprentice is cool, and the subplot is directly related to johns life, perfectly wrapping up the franchise and leaving it open to the possibility of Hoffman carrying on his legacy undetected. John won. The series should’ve ended with 3, but so ending it with 4 isn’t bad either thematically.

    • @samd2013
      @samd2013 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree about saw 4, it’s definitely very underrated and my 4th favorite saw film behind the first 3. However I really love 1-6 the most and kindof wish the franchise ended there. Out of the next three, I think jigsaw is better than 7 and 9 but I’d watch 7 over 9 any day. 1-6 are the best.

    ‘Saw’ movies ranked (my opinion)
    1. Saw III (2006)
    2. Saw (2004)
    3. Saw VI (2009)
    4. Saw II (2005)
    5. Saw V (2008)
    6. Saw IV (2007
    7. Jigsaw (2017)
    8. Saw VII: The Final Chapter (2010)
    I’m my opinion: Saw VI and Saw III are the two most goriest movies in the series. In my opinion Saw III was the best one. The traps were so sadistic and brutal. The actor who played: Timothy Young did a PHENOMENAL job of acting as he was trapped in the ‘Rack Trap.’ The story was pretty simple and easy to follow. Plus, the way it ended was Perfect. 👌 They really didn’t need to make the series a full franchise. It could’ve ended there and more people would look back on the Saw series as this trilogy. But still. It’s just the one I watched the most out of all of them.

    7:15 The stupid plot of Logan in the present day finding people exactly like the ones in John's second game a decade before who were also Halloran's informants because Logan wanted to lure him there to frame him as the new Jigsaw then kill him for letting a killer who eventually killed Logan's wife go, his out of nowhere reveal as the new Jigsaw, the unnecessary backstory add on of Logan mislabelling John's X-Ray due to being traumatised from being tortured in Iraq which stopped John's cancer from being treated in time and John supposedly having a nephew who crashed and died when he was sold a faulty bike. The only idea with potential was Eleanor the Jigsaw fangirl and her site of Jigsaw obsessives.

    I think Saw is a very special franchise when it comes to its sequels, and it makes it really hard for me to rank them because of how each sequel retroactively elevates to previous films. Little bits and bobs, plot holes and whatnot, are actually resolved. Obviously the first 3 were great, and yeah it loses a bit of steam after those, but I still really liked them as I went through them.

    Saw is honestly my second favorite horror franchise next to Evil Dead. I binged all 8 Saw films leading up to Spiral in the last two weeks and my ranking stacks up like this:
    1. Saw - I can overlook the bad acting and see the horror classic masterpiece it is. I absolutely love it. It had the most effective twist and the most iconic trap: the reverse beartrap. It put the franchise on the map and gave us such an atmospheric and good time. A staple of early 2000s horror and has aged like fine wine for me.
    2. Saw 3 - The biggest and most epic in the series. So much happens and unfolds and truly feels like a Jigsaw puzzle slowly coming together to make a bigger picture with minimal to no plotholes. Every moment is important. Its also the goriest of the films.
    3. Saw VI - I love it. Its socially relevant and gory. The main guy in the game is a scumbag who manages to be somewhat likeable and pretty compelling by the end. The story is fun and “downright slick” too. (I’m a Hoffman fan soooo)
    4. Spiral - also really loved it. Socially relevant, brutal, and badass. This movie had me absolutely giddy in the theater. Especially when Zepp 9 played. Just wish the twist wasn’t so obvious and that one of the traps wasn’t cut out because it creates some continuity issues in the editing.
    5. Saw 2 - originally my favorite in the franchise but upon rewatch it really dropped to midtier. The clues are so obvious and the characters are bafflingly idiotic but the twist and traps are pretty great.
    6. Saw IV- Its fun. I like “Riggsaw” and the traps and the big twist. I also like what we got of Jigsaw’s backstory a lot. Overall feels like we’re stretching the story here, but whatever. I enjoy it.
    7. Saw V - As a fan of Strahm and Hoffman, I enjoyed the hell out of seeing these two have a cat and mouse chase leading to a pretty sick ending. Not much of a twist or an eventful movie though.
    8. Jigsaw - Good production value and cinematography with decent enough traps but unfortunately riddled with bland characters and major plotholes that make me scratch my head every rewatch. Jigsaw pioneered 4k TVs in 2003? Sure.
    9. Saw 3D - I am actually a big fan of the story and events of the film, but the technical aspects really bog it down. Easily the worst made Saw movie in terms of color correction, cinematography, editing, and writing. I think a fanmade re-edit passion project could honestly save it.

    1) Saw II, improved upon the first one and was a solid sequel that entertained me and I loved Eric Mathews. Also had the biggest twist !!
    2) Saw , changed the horror genre and was daring. Most memorable from my past.
    3) Saw III , I like how it perfectly aligns with the previous two films. In all honesty would’ve ended the series perfectly.
    4) Saw V, I like they took and uninteresting character and made him interesting. I really began to understand Hoffman’s motivations. He’d be a better character is trap motives were more fluid throughout the series.
    5) Spiral , the predictability and editing style ruined it aswell as false marketing.
    6) Saw IV , I really dig the story and how it chooses to connect to the mainstream timeline. A few scenes just feel off “though”.
    7) Jigsaw , I don’t think it really offered anything we haven’t seen .. sure the production was nice but it lacked gore.
    8) Saw VI, took the franchise and turned it into a slasher ? I understand some people prefer that but it’s now become so unrealistic and the color grading / editing feels a lot more cheap.
    9) Saw The Final Chapter , rushed & lazy !

    @Film0Graphic 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've caught up on almost all of the Saw films, I haven't seen Jigsaw. I'm going off of memory when it comes to 2 and Spiral
    I love the first movie, one of my favorite horror movies. I love the Se7en meets Cube concept, it's not my favorite James Wan film, but definitely one I love to revisit. Favorite trap is the reverse bear trap.
    Saw 2 is a mixed bag for me, I need to revisit it though, haven't seen it in almost 2 years. I just remember being disappointed with the film. Favorite trap in this is either the furnace or the glass cage. I love how the glass cage was meant to punish the sin of greed
    Saw 3 is pretty great in my eyes, I love the main story centered around a grieving father and how he's moreso a pawn in Amanda's game. Also this has my favorite soundtrack in the series. Favorite trap is a tie between the Juicer and the Rack. The Juicer was a great emotional trap while the Rack was a great visual and gory trap. The judge getting covered in pig guts being a mirror to how the law covered the case of the dead son, drowning the judge in pig juice like the father was drowned in his depression over the case (I'm probably stretching)
    I was surprised to like Saw 4, its definitely a flawed entry, but I kinda liked it overall. I liked the bigger scale kn the sense that the traps are scattered around town. I don't mind the whole message behind the main trap, his obsession with saving lives was slowly ruining his own and often jumped the gun in situations and instead of observing and properly surveying the situation he jumped straight in. Which is a fast way to get someone killed if not careful. Favorite trap was the one where that fat creep is tied down and gets his eyes stabbed, getting ried down and having his eyes punctured was a mirror to the physical and visual torture he performed on the girls he brought there. I also loved the hair tie trap, very Seven esc in the sense of it being her suffering through the possibility she'll be disfigured and put in prison for her crimes
    Saw 5 was surprisingly great, I love the cat and mouse game between Strahm and Hoffman. Nothing groundbreaking, but I enjoyed it overall. Favorite trap is the pendulum, I love the visual of a pendulum as the time counts down to his demise
    Saw 6, I loved this movie a lot. I like the main story centered around the health insurance company workers getting punished for their malpractice. One of the few Saw movies where I liked the ending a lot (I don't care for the endings to 2,4 and 5, I'll get to 7). Favorite trap is the shotgun carousel, how it picks its victims at random and leaving those that were chosen as a mirror to how the company picked and chose their clients. My biggest issue was the side plot with Hoffman, I don't understand the reason why they bring back Reyez just to kill her off again
    Saw 7, I hated this one. Wasn't as good as I was hoping for. The pink blood was the main issue I had with it. But the main trap(s) were pretty bad also, by themselves they're great, but in context to the story they're terrible. Favorite trap is the one with Chester Bennington, no deeper meaning, it's just a nice trap to satisfy the gore hound in me
    Spiral was pretty good, I liked it a lot for what it is, definitely loved the focus on the cops being the main target for the new Jigsaw copycat. Nothing all that special, but really enjoyed it. My favorite trap is the glass cannon, pretty gnarly kill and most brutal. I also like how the traps were heavily connected to the sins the cops committed, whether its severing a liars tongue, or tearing off the trigger finger (I forgot the meaning behind the glass cannon for some reason)

    5:52 William should have just been tested for denying other people health insurance. They didn't need to add that he'd denied John too. Amanda being the one to send Cecil into the clinic to steal drugs for her and killing Jill and John's son Gideon was a dumb retcon. If they'd included a flashback to the events of Saw III where he found out and that was another reason why he was testing her apart from building the inescapable traps it might have worked. Hoffman blackmailing Amanda was stupid too. Amanda wanting to kill Lynn because she believed she hadn't changed and because Amanda realised John's philosophy was bullshit and didn't help anyone was good enough.

I just watched Jigsaw for my first time tonight and thought it was good despite insanely “Convenient that happened exactly that way it just did or else none of this would’ve worked out the way it has” plot mechanic but like you said, it looks great, the acting is solid but a lot of the same tropes and nothing really new to the table. It was great seeing Jigsaw again though.

    I always liked saw 4 and 5 more than 6 and 7, but I liked the detective parts of them. And I liked how saw 4 closed 3 movies worth of loose ends.

    Saw 5 is probably in my top 5 but still not a bad list

    Just saw Spiral SOOOOO GOOOD. My rankings best to worst 1, Spiral, 3, 2, 4, 5, 6, Jigsaw, 3D. I really like Hoffman lol. Glad 3 was ranked higher I really like that one though its genuinely disliked yes the rack is one of the best traps. Yes I knew who the killer was soon as they pulled the not showing the body cliche. Aw man I really liked Cary Elwes in Saw

      The original isn’t the best. It’s not even top 5 saw movies.

    Pretty good list. I think you underrated Jigsaw as compared to Spiral. Neither was terrible but both were better than some of the dumpster fires of the franchise. I'd take Jigsaw over Spiral probably though.
    I also think you're right that 2 might be better than the original, for all the reasons you listed. When the Amanda reveal happened I was blown away.
