Saw 3 (2006)

It's a SAWry show.

Finally, it has arrived. Saw 3- the latest offering from James Wan and Leigh Whannell. Expectations are sky high after the huge success of Saw 1 (i agree) and 2 (i don't agree), can Saw 3 live up to expectations? Can director, Darren Lynn Bousman, redeem himself after the dismal Saw 2? Let us find out.

This time, our grand daddy of s&m, Jigsaw, is dying. And it is a slow and painful one. However, being the wily and naughty old fox he is, he wants to play a game. Yes, even though he's dying he still want to play a game. Game is simple. Catch a doctor, fix a bomb on her head and if old fox's heart rate becomes zero. BLAM! You know. Like a watermelon. Meanwhile, another guy gets to play the game! Yeah, i'm happy for him. (Not everyone can participate in Jiggy's game, you know?) Who is this guy? Is he related to anyone? Can he survive the game(s)? Wait! What happen to that cop in Saw 2? Ooohhh. Answers and all in the show!

First things first, this installment is the worst of the franchise. (That's my 2 cents, you sick mofos can disagree!) Saw 3 is like a link that bonds the Saw franchise together. It provides all the answers to the unanswered questions in Saw 1 & 2. This is where the problem lies. You see, Saw 3 tries so hard to hold everything together, that it has no identity at all. The new story is so-so and who cares about the history? Fans want a hardcore new story with twists, more blood and more stomach churning gore! Give that man a saw! With that said and done, I just want to say that Saw is history. And hey Mr. Jigsaw. Please, just die. Spare us your games.

P.S: Sorry BM. She's Amanda not Shannon.
