This comic, set in the world of SAW goes back in time to explore the events that spurred the transformation of mild-mannered John into the monstrous Jigsaw.
Jeff is an anguished man, who grieves and misses his young son that was killed by a drunk driver in a car accident. He has become obsessed for revenge against the drunk driver, judge, and only witness who refused to testify; he has also become neglectful of his daughter. Lynn Denlon is a skilled surgeon that is cheating on her husband and suffering from depression. Both are abducted and brought to Jigsaw's warehouse, where they must play two separate games: Jeff must choose whether to save or let the people he holds responsible for the death of his son die, while Lynn must keep Jigsaw alive until Jeff completes his tests, or face the deadly consequences.Written by

The final shooting draft of the script was written in under a week in Toronto, Ontario by Leigh Whannell based on an idea by creator and Saw (2004) director James Wan. See more »
Goofs
Though certainly capable of inflicting horrendous agony upon its occupant, the rack trap would not splinter Timothy's arm and leg bones as shown in the film. The continuous twisting motions would dislocate the bones from each other and possibly cause them to penetrate the surrounding skin, but they'd otherwise remain in one piece. It is also likely that under so much pain, Timothy would have blacked out into a coma before the trap sequence concluded. See more »

Alternate Versions
In Germany the film was released by Kinowelt in three different versions: the uncut theatrical (US R-rated) version (with a SPIO/JK approval, released in three editions: standard amaray, steelbook and 2 disc limited collector's edition), FSK-18 version (cut by 5 minutes) and FSK-16 version (cut by 21 minutes). The US unrated version of the film did not get a SPIO/JK approval and was therefore not released officially in Germany (it was however released in Austria, resulting in high exports to Germany).

We went to the cinema yesterday to see this flick. I can't really say I had any expectations, I mean, it's a third part in a series and such are rarely keeping the same quality as their predecessors. After seeing it, I have to admit that this flick is definitely keeping the same touch of quality work as the first two parts. I'd say it's better than the second piece, and if it's not better than the first piece, then they're at least even.
I found the third part to have a bit more gore in it, compared to the other pieces in the series. Some scenes are really disturbing and even I, who claim myself to be quite difficult to disturb through film as a medium, at times felt really... well, it was almost a bit too much. It's far from snuff, please, don't get me wrong here, since the utter disturbance is very beautiful in a way and very artistic, I'd say.
For the plot, I can't pull off any complaints. Anyone familiar with the first two pieces and the plot of theirs, will recognize the atmosphere and the touch of the flick here. The acting is neat, no complaints there either. All-in-all, this is a well-made flick and among the best deliveries from Hollywood I've been confronted with in quite a while. I recommend it. 7/10.
