Jigsaw (2017)

Jigsaw, part 8 in the Saw franchise, opens up with a guy running from the cops. He scrambles up to a rooftop where an "X" marks a spot. He finds a remote detonator right as the cops catch up with him and triggers it, starting a new game. Cut to a room with several people chained up with buckets on their heads and saw blades in the walls. The chains pull the group toward the blades and then into subsequent new rooms with new challenges. 

The first thing that jumps out about this Saw is how clean and sanitized it is. Every Saw before this was dark, grungy and gritty. Everything looked industrial and dirty. This time around everything is well lit, clean and looks brand new. It really pulled me out of the movie, everything just looked too much like a movie set. Another thing that pulled me out was how young and glamorous everyone is, it's like a network TV drama. 

The story itself follows the usual Saw format. A group of people get tested while police investigators try to figure out who's behind it. 

Jigsaw is just another Saw movie. It's no different from Saw 3, 4, 5 or any of the others. It gives fans of the franchise more traps, more victims and more lessons.
