Critics Consensus

Jigsaw definitely won't win many converts to the Saw franchise, but for longtime fans, it should prove a respectably revolting -- if rarely scary -- diversion.

The resulting Grand Guignol will please fans, although the gore is never as groundbreaking as the drowning in pig entrails and reserve bear traps of old.

Rated: 3/5

A marginally better entry into the franchise.

Which brings us to "Jigsaw," which fails for very much the same reasons as "The Mummy" - It was made to launch a franchise rather than because it was actually about something.

Gorehounds will get their fill, and that's about the limit of Jigsaw's appeal.

Jigsaw will in no way, shape or form be a game changer for the horror genre.

"The horror genre typically sees women as passive and helpless, the perfect victims. But when the roles are reversed, a female killer reclaims some power."

All the planning and preparation in the sequels from a dead/sick man is ridiculous. However, let Jigsaw plat his games and enjoy the carnage that follows

It might not be a masterpiece from the *Saw* film series, but my viewing experience wasn't harmed—in fact, quite the opposite. I actually enjoyed the movie, and the twist at the end is one of the better ones I've seen in recent years as a regular moviegoer.
