Absolutely awful. I was supremely disappointed in this one... and this is coming from an avid fan of the first three films. Nothing in this movie was up to par with the first three -- even the twist seemed forced.
when i brought the dvd i was getting kinda worried about how the saw movies would play out after jigsaw's death. this story was amazing. to me it was really epic and awesome! cant wait for 5 and 6.
I was skeptical when I first saw it. Even after it was over, I was worried that I didn’t like it. As I viewed it, I didn’t get that “Oh, God, that’s sick!” feeling I had with Saw II. The only part I thought was truly brutal was the scalping trap. (Sorry, I forgot its official name.) Maybe it’s because I’m desensitized to this type of violence after seeing the others in the franchise, or maybe it’s because the Saw crew are running out of ideas. But by the end of the movie the only thing on my mind was: “Dude, that was a mind trip.” And to this day (half a year later) I’m not sure I understand everything that happened.
A day after I watched it, and let it settle, I realized how amazing this movie was. It’s quite different from the others in the franchise. I cannot even complain in the slightest about the camerawork; it was the best I have ever seen from Saw. The plot, as I mentioned, is a true mind trip.
Don’t listen to people who say this is the worst in the series. It is just as good as the original was, but for different reasons. And, though I personally found Saw II to be the most brutal of all four, there is more blood in this movie than 99% of movies out there, period.
I don’t know how anyone who is a fan of the Saw series wouldn’t like this. I also don’t know why most people don’t realize the pure intelligence Saw IV has.
ok first off let me say that iam very surprised that this frenchise is still running strong withh the asspects of not changing the elemints of saw and keeping the same blood y and fantastic saw additude
Easily the best sine the first (as 2 was garbage and 3 needed more). Great job in further character development on Jigsaw's character.
UNFORTUNATELY to be soon soured by many a sequel. Oh well, this one will always be liked by me.
OMG LET IT GO ALREADY! i'm so tired of these movies already.. the first one was awsome the second okay...then they needed to let it go. now they're just ruining it.
dont get me wrong it was somewhat entertaining, but i'm just really tires of the saw movies. if they come out w/ another...i'm deff. not seeing it.
I was very so/so about ANOTHER Saw, but it was actually better then I thought. I love how they keep connecting everything into the conclusion. Who's ready for Saw5? lol
u know when i first heard of this movie i was like "wow another saw movie???".............but when i saw it i was like this is the best saw movie ever!!!!!
What a surprise! After reading on the internet about so many people that disliked the movie , I went and loved it! The twists and trapps are fresh. Hard to write a review, cause its like watching 20 tv episodes of a television series.

I think it is a good horror film that fits in well with the past saw films. The ending is a little confusing on the first view but if you watch it again you should understand. Large amount of gore but you will expect that from a saw film. Better than the third but not as good as saw 2 or the king of the franchise saw 1.

im surprised that the fourth installment of SAW is actually good, i mean just look at all the other movies, after the 2nd or 3rd it just gets god awefu. i was actually shocked when i found out that they are making a grand total of 7....7!! SAW movies...thats ridiculous!...but whats even more ridiculous is that so far all of them are pretty damn good, just like all the other saw movies, at the end my jaw was to the floor and i was like "OH MY GOD! I DID NOT EXPECT THAT!" and thats what i really love about the SAW series ....its the whole "SURPRISE!"....great movie
Plot: *SPOILER ALERT!* when i found out that the 4th one took place DURING the 3rd one, i was blown away, it was a great concept and the plot was really strong...it kept me interested the whole time, Plot = 5/5
Gore: the gore was pretty good.*SPOILER!* when Dectective Matthews got 2 ice blocks slammed against his head i was like "BOOM HEADSHOT!" just an amazing head explosion, that guy getting ripped apart on the bed? amazing Gore = 5/5
Downfall: the only down fall about this movie, and all of the other movies is that NO ONE SURVIVES! ...its like "come on dude! why cant just 1...just 1 person surive a jigsaw game!" amanda doesnt count, because she was being tested in the 3rd one and failed
all in all...this movie is top notch, cant wait for number 5
Well the 4th installment of this yearly series has arrived and the writers and producers did not disappoint. The look of the film is dark, gritty like you would expect from a Saw film. The twist are once again kept well hidden until the end. The writers have definatey thought long and hard about how to keep Jigsaw alive, even after he's dead.
After watching this film, I can see what we have in store for Saw V, but I'm curious in finding out what Saw VI, will show.
Tobin Bell in this installment once again brings out a great performance. As you watch the film and you experience what it is that drove him to become Jigsaw, you can't help but feel bad for him and at times feel he's justified in his anger.
The only thing that many may not like, is if you haven't seen the others, you will be lost. This series has lent itself to being one ongoing film. I've seen every film in the theaters and will continue to go. The last time a series was released every year was in the 80's with the Friday the 13th films(released by Paramount) and as much as I enjoy those films, they weren't handled with the same care that the Saw films are.
If you like any of the other films in the series, than I recommend picking this up.
