I really, really, REALLY hope that this is the last SAW film!!! I have been a follower of the Saw films since the beginning, like most of you I'm sure, and I've enjoyed all of them....well okay 5 had it's moments and I hated the way 4 ended, but still. And I think the problem with 5 was that most of it was just focused on trying to explain how the hell Hoffman fits into this whole story of twist and turns and they didn't pull it off as well as they could have in my opinion. With Amanda, they did a really good job explaining it. She was a lost soul who, after surviving his trap, wanted guidance on how to better her life so she went to Jigsaw and tried....but eventually failed. Easy to follow. Hoffman....ehh...okay. Now the traps and story with Hoffman and Strahm trying to be one step ahead of each other I thought was well written....acted is to be debated but I mean it's a horror film for crying out loud, like it's ever going to be nominated for an Oscar. But I am actually impressed that Saw has been able to maintain such a good plot and didn't start slipping, in my opinion, till the 5 film. I mean, Freddy slipped at about the 3 or 4 film, Halloween about the 3, then picked back up in the 4, then died in the 6, then re-picked back up in the 7, then failed in the 8, the reborn in the remake....okay that confussed me and I think I made my point lol. All in all, I'm excited about this film and I can't wait to find out how it all ends...if it ends that is lol.
