I dont understand why there are 2 scenes where FBI agents do not call for back-up across the series - WTF, i never understood that part. Bringing Hoffman into the story with no explanation as to WHY he became the new apprentice/jigsaw really pisses me off - what was his fucking motive for becoming the new jigsaw? This movie by far takes the whole 'predicting the future' too far.... And lastly Saw 5 will be an extension of 4 and show some flashbacks from the series and probably reintroduce gordon as the ultimate jigsaw and make people think "whoa awesome" but yeah I think they are just tarnishing the saw name now with too many twists, they had it won with saw 1 but they just slowly went off the rails. But yeah Hoffman was working with Amanda so that means this movie was probably concurrent or in a similar time frame as 3 was taking place due to the guy looking for his daughter and Hoffman sending letters.

It was way too jam-packed with like 80 storylines. The torture wasn't as clever. It was too rushed. It was confusing and it really felt like filler or that the story was just being pushed along. There were also way too many flashbacks and crap. I'd give it a D. I agree with your review. I liked 1 and 3, 2 was pretty good, but 4 is lame. It was way too jam-packed with like 80 storylines.

Saw 4 was completely repetitive and confusing...the new actors were bland on screen..there were a couple of interesting methods of torture but the end scene was too played out for me..Saw 4 could've been improved if old saw actors were brought back and a different ending was used..just because Saw (the first one), ended with Jigsaw actually being in the room and walking out while saying "Game Over" and bringing an end to the fucking best horror movie ever..didn't mean the producers were allowed to get lazy and make completely incomprehensible movie endings after that...

Do u think there's any chance she's still alive? I was really confused by the storyline and i agree that jigsaw was heavily over-explained lol BRING BACK AMANDA!

Jiggsaw was a great vilian because he never murdered, he "depises murderers" and yet only a a few people had any choice in the matter to save themselves. just seems they focused too much on what made the character, and didnt focus on what he's already been set up to be dude, I love the hell out of the saw movies, but I agree that, in a series of movies with terrible acting, this one was almost unwatchable due to the lack of charisma from anyone in it (aside from bell of course). the traps were not nearly as well thought out or even as interesting to look at. these were simply death machines. only one really embraced the theme of what made saw so interesting: “how much would you bleed to stay alive” the others are part of a newer,less interesting concept of “how unlucky will you be to be strapped into something that will kill you unless someone saves you”.

Of course it's confusing. That makes up Saw 5 and I can't wait to see it. And if u didnt watch the other 3 saws ur not gonna get it. Dude this was obviously the best one yet.

Learn how to review movies
If you’re not smart enough to follow
Don’t be a fan
And sure as hell don’t pretend,
To know what you are talking about.
Maybe you should think about watching it again
And understanding before writing about it :) ok?

Yes, there are a lot of confusing parts but you are obvioulsy going to find out in Saw 5. And if you didn't watch the other 3 Saw movies, I hate to say it but your not going to understand it.

I was kinda disappointed that Dr Gordon didn't show up in the film and I thought that was him torwards the end when that guy was limping but it turned up not to be. And another thing what was up with Jigsaw and his wife why did they split. So officer Riggs do you think he dies or what. I mean he can get out of that place. Will there be a Saw 5?
