FILM 26
FILM: SAW V
PREMISE: Following Jigsaw's grizzly demise, Mark Hoffman, the final apprentice to the serial killer is reigned a hero. Meanwhile, Agent Strahm is tested and puts the pieces together. While Strahm realizes that Hoffman is helping Jigsaw, five seemingly unconnected people face a horrible lesson of teamwork.
Strahm follows all the leads he can get off Hoffman, including the death of his sister and why he joined Jigsaw. Hoffman and Strahm circle each other until it boils down to a gruesome and bone-crushing finale.
REVIEW: Now I love the first film. I have gotten diminishing returns from each sequel. Though I have never been a fan of this films I still anticipate them and believe they are of a much better quality then half the horror films Hollywood churns out. Please have part 6 (yes there will be a part 6) be the last. This current enstallment of the series was very very boring. Now some of the traps are cool, Tobin Bell is cool and the connection of the previous films was interesting. The major problem besides some of the acting choices is that this film is no longer suspenseful or especially this scary. I know in the screening I went to a couple fell asleep from boredom. And that ending UGH! This is the worse of the series and these films either need to stop or take a long sabbatical. I give this film a 4 out of 10.
