Saw III, the third Saw sequel, isn’t bad but it’s a step down from its predecessors. The film starts by showcasing two grisly Jigsaw murders including one involving Detective Kerry. The remaining portion of the film involves Jigsaw tormenting Jeff, the father of a young boy killed by a drunk driver and testing him in various ways to see if he will save various wrongdoers from his past from elaborate death traps. On the other side of the coin, Amanda has kidnapped Jeff’s wife who is a neurosurgeon and forces her to operate on her mentor, John “Jigsaw” Kramer. She places a contraption around her neck that will kill her if Jigsaw’s heart rate reaches zero. The brain surgery scene is gruesome, intense and will satiate the thirst for gore. However, with this one it felt like the torture porn was often being used as substitute for scares.

En general las películas de terror resultan desagradables, inapropiadas y son un tipo de contenido que debería ser prohibido y eliminado en las películas y bastantes series de televisión, y las de Saw resultan en exceso sangrientas, con escenas que deberían ser prohibidas en todo el mundo (por lo fuertes y desagradables que son), recomiendo nunca ver ni una cosa ni la otra, vean cosas buenas y agradables porque para entretenimiento hay videojuegos, competiciones, deportes, ánime, y caricaturas, de lo bueno hay mucho para elegir así que eviten basuras, nada de Saw, Chucky, etc.

When the cruelty is the point, and the journey to get there is not nearly as interesting as it once was, you get something like this - diminishing returns in a series that shifts tone for the worse. This movie is too obsessed with its own mythology to tell a coherent story and doesn't take advantage of its potential. Despite the often crude and repetitive writing, there's promise in exploring the nature of Jeff's desire for revenge, which is communicated effectively by Angus MacFadyen. Yet, the creatives decide ultimately to go with cheap shock value and expository flashbacks to explain things from the previous two films. Shawnee Smith and Tobin Bell portray a toxic and harmful father/daughter relationship, and there's glimmers of really intriguing stuff in Amanda's slow realization that Jigsaw's' way of life is not all it's cracked up to be. But, again, instead of actual resolution, we get cliffhangers and empty despair. The gore is effective - I winced and was uncomfortable through a number of the traps in this movie. There's no actual catharsis though, just curiosity at how the next trap will top the previous one. This one is hard to recommend. Take a gander at it if you are a Saw die-hard or enjoy splatter films, because the blood and guts are aplenty. Otherwise, miss this one. It's intriguing but ultimately disappointing, especially for Wan and Whannell's last direct creative contribution to the series.

Saw III is the next evolution in the suspense thriller series with plenty of gore and disgust to go around. Filmed more comparable to a modern TV-series, the gripping formula from the prior movies starts to lose its potency at this point. The dialog lines are slightly more mature but the plot becomes less interesting as the audience becomes more receptive to the pattern of events. The moral of Saw III focuses around dealing with the dilemma of personal vengeance and pain within a short amount of time.

Why did she see a vision in the mirror at the start, it felt so out-of-place. There is a trap and gore overload but the story isn't as compelling as the first two. Maybe it went a bit far into the torture porn realm. Also it's probably too long. There is enough story and characters that it's above average but not as good as the first two. The character motivations are flawed here. It finishes the trilogy well enough, a good conclusion.

Saw 3 is a bit the opposite of Saw 2. Not much is happening here. Although it's happening, it's not exactly the best. I would compare the whole film to Star Wars: Episode II, which was mainly about Anakin's relationship with Padmé and it was one of the worst parts for me. Unfortunately, this is the same problem and it is mostly a relationship that I don't really know if I can call a relationship. But I won't spoiler. In addition, we have other characters, which are significantly less than the two. This is not a bad thing at all, but unfortunately I found it uninteresting and did not even reach the knees of the previous ones. The whole film seemed so useless to me and even the final resolution didn't save it much, which was good, but lags behind the previous ones. Unfortunately, this is an average film that I do not recommend.

This third instalment improves on both its predecessors. This is one of those horror films that makes you feel disgusted and sympathetic at the same time.

Starting to go downhill. Interesting enough of a **** I think this is where everything in the series starts to get confusing.

Best in the series. Fantastic story and brutal twist at the end as always. Probably the best traps in the whole series. Highly recommend this saw out of all of them.

Oh god part 3? Who wanted this? It's just the same thing! Some different traps, characters who have one personality, and an awful story. And there are more sequels.

As far as entertainment values and acting goes, this sequel is on par with the last one. Which means that it's not nearly as good as the first one, but that it's still rather watchable. If you liked the first two, you'll probably appreciate this one.

I admit that Jigsaw is a pretty great villain, but the fact he can't save the movie from being an overload of scary clichés makes him want to stop playing the Jigsaw game and end the entire franchise all together.

When people in heaven are trading stories about how they went out, at least the victims in Saw movies have original anecdotes: "How did you die?" "Heart attack, and you?" "Well, I was pinned to the bottom of a steel vat and drowned in a putrescent sea of rotting pig corpses." These novel deaths have to be the reason the franchise has survived as long as it has; unlike the Jasons and Michael Myerses of the horror world, Saw's Jigsaw killer has a flair for theatricality, and he replaces those banal butcher knives with elaborate homemade S&M apparatuses. The movies, too, are depressingly mechanical Rube Goldberg torture devices, with spring-loaded twists to go along with those reverse bear traps and ribcage-separators. Because of its efforts to make sense of the previous entries and even attempt an earnest parable about forgiveness, Saw III may be the best of the trilogy; hopefully, it'll encourage its makers to wrap the franchise on a relatively high note. After an inauspicious start—one man caught in the classic leg-shackle-and-a-saw scenario, another pinned next to a bomb with chains hooked into his flesh—the film slowly evolves into a macabre character study. Still bedridden with terminal cancer, Tobin Bell's Jigsaw leaves much of the dirty work to Shawnee Smith, a former victim turned overeager assistant. Determined to keep Bell alive for another round of "games," Smith kidnaps a doctor (Bahar Soomekh) and straps an explosive collar to her neck, connecting it to Bell's heart-rate monitor. If Bell's heart stops, ka-boom. Meanwhile, the two have designed an obstacle course of sorts for Angus Macfadyen, a bereaved father consumed with revenge for the driver who killed his son and got off with a light sentence. Can he learn to forgive? Perhaps his place on death's door makes him more sympathetic, but Saw III manages to transform Bell from a grim, obsessive sadist to an avuncular life coach, like Fangoria's answer to Dr. Phil. Bell has always insisted that he isn't a murderer—hey, if people can't retrieve the key from the bottom of the beaker of sulfuric acid, that's their problem—and this film finally gives a shred of credence to that claim, even as it questions whether his "trials" are constructive to the people who survive them. Pretty heady stuff, if only it weren't still in the context of a relentlessly bleak, humorless, gimmicky contraption that wore out its novelty two movies ago.

Saw III is a 2006 Canadian-American horror film directed by Darren Lynn Bousman from a screenplay by Leigh Whannell and story by James Wan and Whannell. From what I see, Saw movie series takes down. Maybe I have too high expectations from a movie like Saw. However it is quite interesting, but fails to attract me.

"Saw III" is another great entry in the Saw series. It's gruesome, thrilling, and unpredictable. There's actually some good acting here and great cinematography. I felt there were too many flashbacks in this film which makes the movie less interesting, and it eventually became somewhat repetitive, but I still recommend it for fans of the series.

Saw III is just too long for the story, but the characters are pretty good and I'm glad they didn't focus on the traps. Nevertheless one trap with the naked woman doesn't fit in the series, because it's the only erotic scene!

Back on track after the second one. The story is an improvement and the ending is clever. The series is better when there is more storytelling and focus on the relationship instead of people just trying to survive. Also I must point out that the score or the theme music used in this movie is unforgettable. However, due to the extreme gore throughout this movie it is not for everyone even those who have the strongest of stomach's might turn away. In the end this is a big improvement from the second and only slightly worse than the first, I give it 61.0/100 (above average)

Saw III, which is most of the fan's favorite it seems. This was a good movie, and a worthy entry in the series, but it just wasn't as good as Saw or Saw II. The deaths are crazy graphic and fun, and it does mark the end of Jigsaw, which makes the movie interesting and fun to watch. Good movie, 6/10.

I have never imagined that the films would last so far. "Saw III" improves on both its predecessors, and this time includes some love features. This is one of the first horror films that made me feel disgusted and sympathetic at the same time. Oh, and there's more blood and gore here too.

A nightmarish film but yet so good at its plot it is sensitively awesome. And seeing Jigsaw finally getting killed was a important part in the Saw trilogy. Definitely a must watch for die-hard Saw fans like me.

Ok Saw II was pretty crap, Saw III however goes back to what made the original great. It begins to continue the story of detective Matthews but then loses itself in an even bigger story, someone is copying the Jigsaw killings but giving their victims no hope of escape. With Jigsaw on his death bed dying of a brain tumour and his apprentice Amanda being a pretty stubborn **** a doctor and her husband must play their own games to earn back their lives. Though the plot is pretty crappy the traps are nice and finally some good gore rather than the **** few litres of blood we have been used to over the past couple of years. Intestines, brains and even some mulched up pigs are thrown into the line up with the most disgusting Saw yet.

If the series ended here it could have been a very good horror franchise, becuase Saw III fits very well. It may seem like another re hash of Saw and Saw II, and watching people suffer is not really a sight for the eyes, but excluding that Saw III is actually quite good. Lightly brushing over ideas of human choice (much like Saw , and Saw II), and having a tense story line its quite a ride, although surprisingly you are actually more on edge not watching the traps but Jigsaw, Lynne and Amanda's story. By no means a horror masterpiece, and will no way win any acting awards, it still a thrill ride, but if it had just gone that bit deeper into the humanity and decision side of things instead of caring about the worse ways someone could die.

This is probably the most "human" of the Saw films. You're actually allowed to get under the characters' skin this time round, and given time to care for the sympathetic protagonists, a melancholic surgeon (Bahar Soomekh) kidnapped to care for the dying John Kramer, and a grieving father (Angus Macfadyen) who is forced by Kramer to confront those responsible for the death of his young son. Tobin Bell is still great as Jigsaw, and steals the show despite being bedridden throughout the film, but it is Jigsaw's apprentice Amanda (Shawnee Smith) who is actually more terrifying than her mentor. Without Jigsaw's strict (if misguided) moral code, she's more like a rabid dog than a calculated killer with purpose, and actually seems to relish the misery she puts others through on her master's orders. There are some particularly nasty and inventive traps, the best of which unusually for a "torture porn" film actually doesn't involve bodily destruction, but instead rancid pig carcasses are turned into slurry and dumped on the victim. The film is generally quite engaging and keeps your interest until the final act which well and truly begins to ramble and comes across as rather preachy. The now traditional Saw "twist" doesn't come as a surprise either, making me miss the ingenuity of the first installment's spectacular ending. Saw III is far better than Saw II because it's written by series masterminds Leigh Wannell and James Wan, and only directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (one of the failures of the second film was that Bousman wrote and directed, and he is far less talented as a screenwriter than he is behind the camera) and so the film feels more connected to the first film than any other in the series. That said, the message of the franchise (if there is one) has well and truly been lost by this point, and the third film brings very few new ideas to the table. You can appreciate Saw III for decent writing, good performances and a certain perverse joy in death in cruel and unusual ways, but the twisted novelty of the series is beginning to wear off, showing a glimpse of the ugly truth at its heart. Perhaps they should have ended Jigsaw's blood-soaked saga here, but as well we know, box office returns can be ever so persuasive...

I have really mixed feelings about Saw III. As a fan of the first two Saw films, I was intrigued to see what Wan and Whenell would do with the series, and the result was somewhat unusual. Tobin Bell, once again reprising his role as Jigsaw/John Kramer, is the standout in terms of acting. It was hard to care about the other characters, with the possible exception of Amanda, simply because they're portrayed so unconvincingly. It was interesting seeing the new focus on character development come into play, as Kramer transforms Amanda from survivor to apprentice. The ending really did surprise me; it's revealed this game was truly testing Amanda, and Lynn and Jeff were merely pawns. Traps in Saw III were gruesome, especially the pig carcass pit. My only problem with them is how straightforward they are to solve. Saw III was certainly a more mature entry in the series, but as usual, the interesting premise is let down by unconvincing acting and awkward, jumpy editing

The acting was ok but no where near as good as the first two films. The traps were scary though and imo the best in the series. The plot isnt interesting though and fails to keep you entertained like the first two films did. Its an above average horror film but thats about it.

A lot better then the previous film. The cast is solid and Tobin Bell once against steals the show with his performance as Jigsaw. Overall, It was scary and kept you on the edge of your seat during some traps. I enjoyed it.

It was ok. I didnt like the female that played Amanda at all and I thought she overacted quite a bit in the film. The rest of the cast was ok and Bell once again steals the show as Jigsaw. The traps were a lot sicker this time around and actually pretty frightening if you ask me.

Woo! Awesome fella. Better than the previous one. Still a little shallow and too incomplete. But the deaths are quite favorable to my preference. The ending really breaks my heart though.

Surprisingly despite the gruesome cinematography and a cynically unexplained plot, "Saw 3" bests the its other 2 prequels by focusing deeply into character depth. Although the depth is shallow, at least they tried.

Saw III is the most unique entry in the series thus far, Jigsaw's "game" takes a less important role this round for character development, in which you learn more about Amanda and how she's coping with her new life, and it really adds depth and makes her all the more enjoyable, while Jigsaw does still have a victim dealing with the tests, those parts ultimately aren't enjoyable, and one part in particular involving a lady in the freezer made me a little sick, not because it was gory (as there was none in this scene), but because it was just inappropriate, and the fantastic endings these movies are known for isn't here this time, yeah it throws a little twist in, but it was honestly just ****, honestly it's not the best Saw yet and will divide fans sharply, but if your like me and want to know more about Amanda's character, this does a good job of that, but everything else like plot, action, and the ending all suffer in the end.

The Saw series is pretty good, and this is probably the best one of them all. But still, if you strip away the decent plot, it's just blood and guts, which is alright if you're not eating (which I was at the time). It gets a 7 because, out of all of the movies in the series, it is the only one I would go back to and watch again.

This movie is alright, it is too long- I thought Jigsaw died in the second movie. I mean- it's gory and disgusting, this movie needs to be shorter, i saw the unrated cut, it was too long

Gorier than the first two combined, Saw 3 officially labels the series as torture porn. Despite the more emotional path it takes, this instalment has little else to offer asides more smart twists and well-elaborated tortures, which wouldâ

It's worse than the first and the second movies, but it's quite good. It's a film very exciting and the end is excellent, even better than Saw I. It wasn't the best film of the year but it's impossible take your eyes of it.

it wasn't as good as the original, but it beats the second movie in just one shot. it wasn't a bad movie, but it was this close and it ended the trilogy that focuses on John Kramer also known as Jigsaw. Saw III is also worth a try.

More grizzly horror from the Jigsaw chap & his side-kick.
This time it just seems to be a series of gore set-pieces rather than a plot like the first two.
Some truly horrible moments & where it falls down on actual story, the effects & traps are top notch.
