After a series of murders bearing all the markings of the Jigsaw killer, law enforcement officials find themselves chasing the ghost of a man who has been dead for over a decade, and they become embroiled in a new game that's only just begun. Is John Kramer back from the dead to remind the world to be grateful for the gift of life? Or is this a trap set by a killer with designs of his own?

Critics Consensus

Jigsaw definitely won't win many converts to the Saw franchise, but for longtime fans, it should prove a respectably revolting -- if rarely scary -- diversion.

Irish Times

The resulting Grand Guignol will please fans, although the gore is never as groundbreaking as the drowning in pig entrails and reserve bear traps of old.

A marginally better entry into the franchise.

Which brings us to "Jigsaw," which fails for very much the same reasons as "The Mummy" - It was made to launch a franchise rather than because it was actually about something.

Deep Focus Review

Gorehounds will get their fill, and that's about the limit of Jigsaw's appeal.

Jigsaw will in no way, shape or form be a game changer for the horror genre.

Mediaversity Reviews

"The horror genre typically sees women as passive and helpless, the perfect victims. But when the roles are reversed, a female killer reclaims some power."

Plot is a mess, and does not earn the “twist”. Not very good in my opinion.

A decent sequel of Jigsaw early kills that show Jigsaw early sense of justice to people he once knew in his life.

Boring. Same BS as the other movies. Victims are given a “chance” to redeem themselves but it’s always a lie. Even when they follow the rules of the game they’re still executed. No mercy and complete betrayal every step of the way. Regardless of what the requirements are or what is demanded they are always killed. This game is getting old. It’s so predictable and stupid at this point. The first couple of “Saw” movies were great but now it’s just a money making operation with no substance. I’ll probably never watch another “Saw” or “Jigsaw” movie because it’s always the same old BS, and it’s boring.

An "alternative" version of the saw movies which after all is not that different...

Maybe I read too much into movies but, nobody's likeable and the movie is run way too long. When horror movies make characters dumb, it's really annoying, and makes movies hard to watch. This was alright, but it could've been better. P.s the ending is erm... vanglorious to say the least.
