9/18: Saw III is the official title for the public, but it's actually Saw $$$ for the studio or, better yet, All I Saw Was $$$.

What is the 17th Robert Bruce doing in this godforsaken picture? William Wallace ought to kick his ass for being involved with such junk.

The original had intelligence. The third part shows little of it as torture has become the de facto replacement with a slight amount of porn. At the same time, the quality of editing has gone downhill, rendering some of the scenes unwatchable. Hollywood needs to quit the shaky camera gimmick for good.

Tobin Bell is Jigsaw, and he can't shut the hell up on top of his pompousness. His character is always claiming that he's either helping people with their problems or insisting he's not a murderer. But the peabrain doesn't realize he's dead wrong. The ridiculous brain surgery scene? I don't think so. Only idiots will buy that.

All in all, every time a sequel is made for Saw, just affix a dollar sign to the end of the title.
