For everyone that hasnt seen this movie you have to watch Saw 1 thru 4 first, and I would watch them a couple times each cause you wont have any idea of what is happening in Saw 5, and after you finally watch this one you will know all about what is going on, and Halloween 2009 Saw 6 will be in theaters, and everything will conclude cause they are saying Saw 6 will be the last one made, and it will wrap up all the loose ends. As to this movie I thought it was very well placed out, and you have an understanding of what is going to happen, and the games, and the gore are all still in effect, and the storyline is spectacular, and very well thought out cause the ending to Saw 5 will be the beginning of the final project Saw 6. A++++++++ in my opinion-a phenomenol franchise. Jigsaw will never DIE!!!!!!

This is by far the best of the Saw series. I was amazed at the diverse types of torturous devices. I really think that they reall outdid themselves this time. The way that Strahm was unraveling the true mystery of Jigsaw and the apprenticeship of Hoffman was outstanding. It was truely breathtaking from the beginning scene to the finale. I was cringing at parts but applauding the plot the whole way through. I mostly hope that this is not the end. I continue to be awed by Saw and really anticipate a sixth movie. Each just keeps getting better. I can't wait for most twists for my mind to conceive and attempt to solve. Just when you thought this movie couldn't get any better, the final scene will absolutely blow your mind. kenzismoviereviews.blogspot.com

If you don't like movie franchises or movies with a formula this movie is not for you. If you're like me and look forward to seeing how people are going to be disposed of in the next Saw movie it's definitely worth going to see. The killings definitely don't disappoint, but bombs in the rooms? I'm not too sure that was necessary. Ok, so it made sure the people moved to the next room, but it just seemed like such a gimmick that could have been more thought out. As usual, you get more back story about Jigsaw and who is going to carry on his legacy [remember: he's been dead since the third movie]. Saw V maintains that if you didn't see the previous installments you'll be virtually lost in the story. This is a great continuation of a well thought out series. This is not a stand-alone movie so go rent 1-4 before you spend your money on this one.

I'm a big fan of the Saw franchise. They are all really well thought out and tie together so well. They are smart and gory at the same time. Saw 5 is the weakest of the franchise, but still enjoyable. It feels like more of a victory lap. Saw 5 wraps up the series and ties up all the loose ends. The 5 people who are trapped in this film don't serve much of a purpose in the whole scheme of things and really only fill time while all the loose ends are tied up. It's also less tricky, you can easily tell the changes in time back and forth. There's only so much you can do when your main character died in the 3rd film, but it's a bloody wrap up. Fans will enjoy it, but if you've never seen a saw film, this isn't where you want to start the experience.

Saw is not a scary movie, no plot bad acting. Danny Glover was the only good actor there, but he is not a miracle worker. Saw 1-2-3-4-5 all very bad movie's.
