Just one thing I'd thought of leaving the theater..

So at the end when it was revealed that Logan had sniped Edgar and not Detective Halloran, shouldn't the cops have known there was an extra bullet fired?
Also, this one isn't that big of a deal, but that dark web site ol' girl was visiting had one easy ass name

It was pretty good, the writing's a lot better than most of the other ones and the movie just 'feels' better. You can tell that they didn't just rush it out within the past year.
You actually learn everyone's name and not just from simply reading the credits, it was a nice change to how the past movies were; it's been a while, but I can't think of any of the names of the people say from Saw 5, the one with Megan Good and the 4 other people.
I would've liked it if was a bit more graphic and I'm sure there's gonna be an uncut version out later, but there were parts where the old movies would've definitely shown more blood.
I'd say if your a Saw fan, it's definitely worth it but if not just wait for the matinee.
Unrelated but MoviePass is definitely worth it

The people in the game all killed somebody and had to confess for it: Anna smothered her baby because it wouldn't stop crying, then placed it under her husband and let him be arrested for it, evening letting go to a mental institution (I think) & commit that; Ryan killed or caused three deaths, he mentioned something about bad coke but I don't really remember how; Carly robbed an asthma lady for $3.53 and had the chance to save her w/ her inhaler, but fled; and Mitch sold Jigsaw's nephew a motorcycle w/ no brakes and let him ride off and die.
Carly gets killed when she doesn't want to choose a syringe, so Ryan stabs all three in air, and the one w/ acid melts inside her face. Mitch gets pulled up and lowered in a giant blender and has to reach for the bike handle & press the brake, breh ALMOST made it, Anna had jammed a pipe in the bike to stop it and he just relaxes and waits for Anna to get him up...
Next thing you know it starts back up, and issa wrap.
Ryan tries to escape through a 'No Exit' door, and has his foot fall through the floor into these wires, where he is given a choice to lose his lower leg but save his life as well as Anna's and Mitch's.
Anna eventually ditches him to go on to next room, where she gets knocked out and chained to this pipe ala Adam and Gordon. She awakes to a one legged Ryan, whose also chained, and Kramer setting up the final game. There's a shotgun and that's their key to escaping, and Anna decides to continue to play by the rules and kill Ryan, but the gun was set up to go off in reverse, killing Anna.
Ryan sees a green key for Anna, and finds a yellow key for him that's damaged from the blast and no longer usable. He is trapped in the room.
It's revealed that the game happened before all the other movies, and Logan designed the same exact game to happen present day 10 years later, but with 3 people this time. He gets Detective Halloran to follow him to the barn, and the two are trapped in the laser traps. Halloran starts up Logan's game and he gets killed, and then his starts but he confesses and it stops. Logan's corpse gets up revealing he didn't die and he's the new Jigsaw, not his Jigsaw fanatic assistant. They were given the chance to choose who went first, and Halloran pressed Logan's instead, so Logan turned his laser on and kills him. Logan plans to frame to him w/ the evidence he has of him confessing to letting people walk and being the cause of innocent people being killed.
It's shown Logan was the sleeping guy in the saw trap from the trailer, and because he'd simply made a mistake by getting Jigsaw's diagnosis mixed up w/ another patients, Jigsaw saved him after he wakes up basically near the end of the game and nurses him back to health.

Just got back.
Movie was a huge let down.
I'd rank this as either the worst or 2nd worst between the 7th film and this film. The 7th was terrible but at least it tied up some loose ends and brought bought back the doctor from the first.
This one just feels like a soulless reboot.
It's just too glossy and nice looking.
Saw 1-6 through maintained that dirty aesthetic in the cinematography that suited the film's. It's supposed to look grimey.
This film goes for a more "big budget" look. But all it does is lose the feel of the franchise and makes it even more obvious you're watching a reboot.
It's like if somebody went in and cleaned up and remastered the early wu tang albums. The appeal is the low fi gritty sound. By cleaning it up you're missing the point.
It tries to inject some humour but it falls completely flat.
However the biggest failing is the traps. They just aren't memorable. None would go in my top 5 of the series. The final one was the best but it's just so stylized looking and the use of cg takes away from the effect. Gore wise this is the tamest film in the series I'd say.
The "twist" was just whatever,I just didn't care to be honest.
I'm a huge fan of the series and this just didn't cut it. I firmly believe saw 4-6 are very underrated and best watched back to back to back.
The time manipulation felt cheap and unwarranted.
4.5/10

Went with the wife to see it Saturday.
Funniest part of the movie was at the hospital, when the detective was pissed at the cop/security guard for falling asleep and letting that dude get out the bed and get away. He was callin' him useless and just talkin' down on him. The cop just stood there lookin' at him and gave no reaction. I was in the theater like

Bond's gun spoke once....
I enjoyed it as a big fan of the series...hadnt they used that trick tho before?
having it take place during a different time than the investigation?
Yeah
Saw 4 happened at the same time as Saw 3
