The horror flick Saw started a chain-Saw of sequels and that is now one of the most successful of the chop-and-slash variety. It's not a bad way to spend a Halloween evening.November 15, 2011
[Its] sadism is topped only by its absurdity.June 24, 2006
Why see Saw? Because it has teeth and it cuts to the bone.October 27, 2014
How such a cruelly empty and infantile movie got made is mystery enough. More puzzling is why Cary Elwes, Danny Glover and Monica Potter would sign on as co-stars.November 01, 2004
Saw has art-house ambitions, but it's nothing but a glorified snuff film. I despised this movie.October 27, 2014
[A] contrived, unlovable gore-fest with a high-concept premise.October 27, 2014
It is all, of course, total nonsense. But for horror fans it's good nonsense, in the way that a creepy urban legend told by flashlight in a tent at 2 a.m. can be fine and dandy nonsense.October 27, 2014
Saw is a sub-Se7en B-movie serial killer chiller with more high concepts stuffed into its 100 minutes than it can handle.October 27, 2014
James Wan's horror film Saw is full of demented twists and guilty-looking actors, but the scenario is cruel enough to make you squirm.October 27, 2014
There's something impressively loathsome and extravagantly twisted about this horror-thriller from first-timer James Wan.October 27, 2014
Though dumber than a box of rocks, Saw forges ahead with the kind of conviction and energy that will keep bad-cinema junkies sitting bolt upright.October 29, 2004
So over the top that even the recruited audience of non-critics at my screening began to howl.
