Saw 5
Starring Tobin Bell and Costas Mandylor
The movie starts off where the fourth one ended where Jigsaw met his demise. One of the detectives that followed the case all along was viewed as a hero and awarded, while the other detective that had been following the case is tested and puts the pieces together that the hero was working with Jigsaw all along after the death of his sister. As he is rumaging through all of the old files there are flashbacks of all the previous Saw episodes, which I found to be good to refresh my memory.
As all of this is going on 5 seemingly unconnected people face a horrible lesson about teamwork. Some of the scenes are very gory and we eventually learn how the 5 people are connected. The 2 detectives circle each other until it boils down to a gruesome and bone-crushing finale.
The ending was quite a bit of a shock to me and it kind of leads me to believe that there will be another movie. I heard alot about this movie before watching it and didn’t think it was going to be very good but I actually enjoyed watching it. It held my intention throughout the whole movie. On a scale between 1 and 10 with 1 being the lowest and 10 being great, I would rank this movie a 7.
