Jigsaw's reviews
Media reviews
Empire
If you don?t like 'Saw', this isn?t going to change your mind ? but it?s skilful, satisfying schlock and respectful of its fanbase.
The Wrap
The film's Achilles heel, sliced open, is its lack of real interest in being literally anything beyond just another addition to the series(...). 'Jigsaw' doesn't bring anything new to the table. 'Saw', as a franchise, is always interesting in concept, but the execution always seems a little bloodless.
Entertainment Weekly
Seven years after 'Saw 3D', you would?ve expected a back-to-basics approach, but 'Jigsaw' doubles down on the franchise?s twisty storytelling. It feels too long, and it?s only 90 minutes.
Variety
The 'Saw genre was originally dubbed "torture porn". But at this point a more accurate description might just be "overkill".
The Hollywood Reporter
Considering the long amount of time since the last installment, you'd think that more effort would have been put into creatively reviving the franchise. But 'Jigsaw' just seems rote and mechanical.
The Guardian
A slick soulless horror flick just in time for Halloween, more trick than treat.
