If you enjoy horror films, puzzles and playing games, then you would enjoy this film. When I first saw the trailer on television (TV) it looked kind of stupid, not the kind of stupid that makes it so that I don't want to see but the kind of stupid that make it so that only true horror fans would enjoy but not someone who doesn't like horror.

Saw is about two guys who end up in a room with a chain hooked up to one of their ankles with the other end of the chain hooked up to the wall and they don't know how they got in this room. They are then told that they have until 6:00PM (which only leaves approx. 2 hours) to figure out how to get out of the room and if they fail to figure out how to get out of the room by 6:00PM, then they would die.

I liked that the fact that this was a thinking movie where the movie gets you involved (kind of). Sort of like the movies Cube, Cube 2: Hypercube and Cube: Zero (which I haven't seen as of yet but plain on seeing in the near future). If you have seen any of the Cube movies and enjoyed them, watch Saw.

This movie didn't come out to the theaters until the year 1995. I only watched this movie because I wanted to watch every movie that the actor, The Rock, was in at the theater and he happened to be in the sequel to this movie, Be Cool, and thought that since I was going to the theater to watch Be Cool, that I might as well watch this movie, Get Shorty.

Not knowing what this movie was about, I got the movie from my local public library on DVD and put it into my DVD Player. Right away, the movie got my full attention; not that many movies do. What I don't understand is what the movie title has to do with the storyline. Anyway, there is as much action as is with the movie Cradel 2 the Grave. I would highly recommend, if you enjoyed this movie, Be Cool, the sequel to this movie coming out to the theaters March 04, 2005.

I'm trying to watch the James Bond movies in the order that they came out to the theater and when I watched the first five films of James Bond: "Dr. No", "From Russia With Love", "Goldfinger", "Thunderball", and "You Only Live Twice", all five films had the same actor playing James Bond: Sean Connery. When I saw this film, being used to have James Bond being played by Sean Connery, it sort of changed the mood. How would you like to have a actor or actress play a character through so many parts of a movie or show and then have the character be played by another actor or actress? You get used to the actor or actress, which I don't like. I'm not saying that George Lazenby is a bad actor, all I'm saying is that I was used to Sean Connery. If George Lazenby was in the first five films as James Bond and then Sean Connery was in this film as James Bond, I wouldn't like it either.
