Thanks Spiral, for reminding me why I haven't watched a Saw movie in a decade. Inane, hamfisted, and absolutely brain dead. The only thing worse than the cliché-ridden plot is the totally uninspired traps. Chris Rock is shockingly bad in this film. He does fine with the shoehorned-in comedic moments, but his attempts at portraying fear, disgust, or anger are so off the mark that it's hard to imagine what the bad takes must've looked like. You can see the patented Saw plot twist coming from a mile away, and the movie still goes above and beyond to excessively, insultingly explain it to you as if you didn't predict it an hour ago. I guess the production design looked nice?

Strong 1.5/5.
