Goofs:

Revealing mistakes:
During the Steam trap, the trajectory of the trap is completely off. When it fires, it is shown entering her neck, but a couple seconds later it is seen sticking out of her skull above her left eye. It should either have gone through her neck and out the back, or sticking out the back of her head instead.

Oh Thank God…

Rating: 9/10


I remember that feeling i had when watching the first Saw movie. At
first i walked in with the notion from the trailer that it was going to
be some lame "torture" movie… I then remember walking out afterwards
going "OMG…OMG….OMG…" When i first heard they were making a
second one, i was extremely happy. Then i walked out of Saw 2 feeling
empty.. like i had just watched a lame cash in sequel. For whatever
reason i kept coming back.. Premiere day… I'd be there to watch the
next one. Saw 3 i left feeling way better then the 2nd one.. The 4th
one i remember walking out going "Wtf.. what a lame new jigsaw..". The
5th one i had the distinct thought "Omg.. that was just a total filler
movie and nothing was gained from it…" Six i didn't exactly have high
hopes for…

But Thank… GOD… Saw 6 is not only just a good sequel but its actual
a great movie on its own. The moral dilemma William faces as part of
"his" game throughout the movie… real powerful choices. The traps (as
always..) gory as all hell.. but the emotion behind the decisions and
ending of all the traps.. sends a shiver down my spine. And the ending
twist AND scene… I wont spoil it but my GOD.. You thought agent
Straham had a powerful will to live in that intro scene to 5, You ain't
seen nothing yet.

Mainly though.. The story.. One thing this chronicle of the series does
nicely as well, is tie up SO many questions that have been still
hanging from way back to even Saw 3 (with a couple of new ones added
just for the next ones..). I found that even though i thought 4 and 5
were average on their own… After seeing this one, it amplified and
made them.. i don't know.. make sense.

Just like a jigsaw.. as each piece is layed down… the entire picture
starts to make sense. Bring on Saw 7!!!!!
