Saw: The Final Chapter (2010)

What to Expect

Saw 7 aka Saw: The Final Chapter aka Saw 3D, opens up with a flashback to the original Saw when Dr. Gordon was trying to escape after cutting off his foot. The flashback lasts all of maybe 15 seconds and then we're taken to a very public city center where two guys and a girl are stuck in a Jigsaw trap, an unusually public display. Each guy is at one end of a table saw and the girl is suspended above another. Apparently she was dating both of them, a moral atrocity that Jigsaw, or rather his latest accomplice, thought warranted a public execution (medieval much?). And if that weren't weak enough, the gore was total B-movie trash. Gore is the only reason for watching a Saw movie, and they seriously dropped the ball this time around. 

The 3D thing was also cheesy as all hell. Like all other gimmicky 3D horrors of the time, there's a lot of random crap that gets thrown at the screen. For example, in one scene a dream sequence is used just to test out disposable 3D glasses. Busty chick gets cut in half, fake blood and what looks like pasta splatters the camera. Busty chick wakes up. End scene. 

This movie is about a guy who gained fame and fortune for claiming to be a trap survivor, only he wasn't. Jigsaw's crew caught wind of it and decided to test him for real. As the faker stumbles through the same warehouse of traps as all previous Saw victims did, investigators investigate as all previous Saw investigators did.
