Do you want to play a game? That creepy question from the “Saw” franchise helped distinguish the films as one of the most successful — and fun — horror brands in the history of the U.S. box office. America loved the “Saw” flicks, but how did film critics respond? Scroll through our photos above that highlights all of the “Saw” movies ranked worst to best, according to their Metacritic scores. The ninth film, a spin-off titled “Spiral: From the Book of Saw,” was ultimately reviewed rather favorably when it debuted during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Where to watch the “Saw” movies: As of October 2021, the first eight horror flicks are available to stream for free on Peacock. “Spiral” is available to rent on demand.

Lionsgate’s “Spiral” was released in theaters in May 2021, seven months later than originally planned due to the worldwide events.

Chicago – If you find yourself reading this review, you likely understand how much a film can influence society. Despite our best efforts, we don’t get to decide how or why something gets added to our zeitgeist. Its staying power can extend to anything from a character, an ideology, or even a quote.

The effect is so strong that even a small sentence is enough to trigger certain feelings in your brain. So if I told you, “I want to play a game,” there is a high chance that your mind read that in a low and sinister voice. There is even a very good chance that once you saw that line, you read it out loud with the best Jigsaw impersonation you could muster.

After all these years on the force, Chris Rock’s seasoned Det. Zeke Banks still hasn’t figured out that when you play a Jigsaw game, the unwritten rule is you have to lose. Sure, his one-time partner, Det. “William Schenk” (Max Minghella), isn’t actually Jigsaw, nor even a true-blue disciple of John Kramer. However, Will learned the master’s trade, and he learned it well. Which is why at the end of Spiral: From the Book of Saw, Will’s on an elevator that’ll apparently lead him to safety out of this warehouse, and the Swat team just murdered an innocent Black man.

… Well, as innocent as a man like former Police Chief Marcus Banks (Samuel L. Jackson) can be. It’s interesting though that Will let Marcus’ son, Zeke, live, isn’t it? We’ll get to that later.

For those...

Superfan Chris Rock reboots the death-trap-based Saw franchise with this spin-off torture horror that plays like a detective thriller. The result isn’t perfect, but it ticks enough of the right boxes to get the job done.

Chris Rock (who also served as producer and clearly had a hand in the script) stars as Detective Zeke Banks, a loner who’s been the pariah of his police department ever since he turned in a dirty cop for shooting a witness. That precinct-wide resentment isn’t helped by the fact that he’s also the son of revered – and now retired – former head of the Metro police, Marcus Banks (Samuel L. Jackson).

However, Zeke’s...
