So I
finally got around to watching this (Yeah, yeah, laugh at the person miles behind the times). My god it was cool!
I seriously had my doubts about this movie about half way through, but I held out thinking "It'll get better as the action increases"
And MY GOD! This has restored my faith in trilogies. Loved it!
The ending was so cool, not only did it cover the one thing that annoyed me in Saw I*, it fitted in so well and was another classic unexpected twist. Absolutely loved it!!
*SPOILER WARNING (Of 1, 2 and 3):
In Saw I, the key to the chains was kept in the water of the bath tub. That meant the moment Adam awoke an jerked up out of the water, he released the plug and the key went down the drain - destroying their chance of actually getting out without life-threatening harm of cutting off one of your feet and then dragging yourself through a sewer until you manage to find help.
This never fit with Jigsaw's persona of "Put them through a terrorfying experience - not necessarily involving injury (See: Reverse Bear Trap) - that makes them appreciate the life they've took for granted". It, and Saw II, seemed far too much like "Nyah nyah! You're gonna die!!" Which is not what Jigsaw stands for.
However, in Saw III, it delves into these events, and the cool new events that occur to explain this - and it does so in the coolest manner ever!
In short, LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEEEDDDD it!
(and why didn't anybody else comment on it - that ending is so worth commenting on!
)
