Since this is a low-budget movie, there are a few mistakes
Review

First of all, no spoilers will be in this review. I won't tell you the storyline as you should already know it. The story is pretty original and NEVER dull. There are a lot of flash-backs in this film just like Lost. When Saw was advertised on TV, I thought it looked horrible. Then 2 years later, I watched it and it turned out to be not that bad. (I mean the violence) The atmosphere is very dark and sinister and the Jigsaw killer is mysterious and is one of my favourite killers next to Texas Chainsaw Massacre's Leatherface and Phonebooth's killer. Plot at the end is ace, not hard to understand and even beats Fightclub's plot!! This movie was made on quite a low-budget and it was the directors 1st movie which is very impressive. There are a few slight mistakes in the movie but that's not a problem. All in all, if you love thrillers (THIS MOVIE IS NOT A HORROR) with a never dull story-line and a great plot and characters you really care about then watch this NOW!!
