I watched Saw 3D recently and it was awful. The original was actually a good film, but the sequels are terrible. I guess Saw 2 was tolerable, but now the series is a parody of itself. I really hope Saw 3D is the last.

I enjoy them. I've enjoyed the twists and turns (as crazy as half of them may be) and I enjoy the traps.

Good series of movies that needs to end before it tarnishes its name even more.

The first one is brilliant. It's a great idea and so well done, but where it should of stopped.

I didn't even like the first so I didn't bother with the ones after it since they're supposed to be worse.

I've seen all but the newest one. I used to be really into the series back when I was like, I dunno, 14-16? and I was really into horror (still am, but to a lesser degree), and I liked the first four a lot (1 > 3 > 2 > 4), and the 5th was awful, and the 6th was a bit lackluster. These days I still enjoy them when I'm in the right kind of mood, but they really went downhill. I was disappointed when they just kept making them since the first one was actually pretty decent.

My friends and I went through the whole series the night before Halloween. I liked the first one, the rest kinda felt the same, in a boring way. I'm technically supposed to be at the theater with friends watching the most recent one, but decided to pass.

It looks like the producers of the Saw films have a new franchise to bleed for all its worth--so to speak.

Every one after the first was pretty terrible, but for some reason I just got 'caught' in the story. I found it pretty entertaining to watched the adventures of Hoffman and Jigsaw. But there's no way I would ever declare it as anything above average (save for the first, which was pretty cool)

Film-Guy

pretty much same as you

I loved the first. The second was pretty good. everything else sucks, though I do kind of like the 6th film just becuase I was impressed that a saw film had political commentary.

You know you're milking a series when you continue to make more follow ups after the main character is dead..

I've seen the first, which I would rate as nothing more then tolerable (5/10), and about half of the second which I gave up on. I really, really do not like this series.

I saw the first one and didn't think it was that great. I don't see what the hype is about, I thought it was gonna be really gory or something.

I think the idea is clever. In other horror movies, you're yelling at the tv telling the characters not to be so ******* stupid, but in the end dead. In Saw, some of the traps are well designed and it really doesn't matter how intelligent you are.

But it was good for the first 3 max, and that's pushing it a little. I think it's been going on WAY too long and that it went from good to incredibly stupid.

I've only seen the first three in the series. The first movie was great. Original and something different. The rest have just spiraled out of control and I have no desire to watch them.

The first one was great. However, I lost interest in the series shortly after when it tried to be too much like Final Fantasy.

There's something about Lionsgate production that I can't stand. They put waaaaay too much emphasis on stuff to make it stand out. In the end it just looks stupid.
