Well, this is it; the supposed grand finale for the newest slasher film franchise and hopefully it is. Now I'm not saying this is bad; it's just that ti could've been a lot better.
After 6 movies, the first three being great, the next two not worth mentioning and the sixth one redeeming the franchise, the seventh one doesn't do well at all. While SAW 3D manages to entertain as compared to the boredom that was SAW V, SAW 3D fails to maintain the momentum and surprise SAW 6 was able to achieve.
The twists were predictable (if you've followed the SAW franchise since the start and then read the forums, you'd understand), the 3D effects aren't worth it, the traps weren't even that great (especially the last one... WTF was that) and the story seemed heavily rushed. Thankfully, the movie wasn't as bad as SAW V, which somehow incorporated the power of friendship and team work in a universe like SAW's but still, I was expecting something great or epic since this would be the end of one of my favorite horror franchises.
All in all, if all you want is some popcorn horror fun, go ahead; SAW 3D plays a lot like PIRANHAS 3D in the enjoyment factor. But if you were expecting a grand finale for the once great and awesome SAW franchise, you better think twice; maybe it would be better to wait for the DVD instead. For anyone who's watched this series from part one all the way to this installment, get ready to be disappointed.
