    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      A week before filming began, director Kevin Greutert was informed that the film would be post-converted to 3D. He was upset at this decision as he hadn't planned or storyboarded such a move. The idea was dropped for this installment due to time constraints but resurrected for the next film in the film series, Saw 3D (2010).
    • Goofs
      (at around 7 mins) When Hoffman raises the lid of the "Glass Coffin", the blood remains on the lid in a fixed pattern, showing it is dry, even though it was only spurted on to it seconds before.
    • Quotes

      Jigsaw: [flashback scene when John questions William about being denied coverage for his cancer treatment] I came to talk to you Will, because I've found a treatment for my cancer that I think holds a lot of promise, but my requests for coverage have all been turned down.

      William: Yeah...

      Jigsaw: So, I was hoping that if I came and explained it to you that you might be able to get that overturned for me.

      William: [smiles doubtfully] Well, the buck stops here, John. Fire away.

      Jigsaw: Okay.

      [John hands William a brochure]

      Jigsaw: This is a doctor in Norway. He's got a 30 to 40% success rate with gene therapy. He injects what he calls suicide genes into cancerous tumor cells; then an inactive form of a toxic drug is administered...

      William: Yes. I'm familiar with the therapy you're talking about.

      Jigsaw: Right. And a new trial's starting. He's looking for new patients and he seems to think that I'm the perfect candidate...

      William: John, if your primary physician, Dr. Gordon, thought you were a suitable candidate, he would have pursued it.

      Jigsaw: No. Dr. Gordon is a specialist. You know, he's making money on his specialty. He's not a thinker. I mean, the man has his hand on the doorknob half the time that I'm there.

      William: I'm gonna be straight with you. At your age and with the development of your cancer, it's simply not feasible for Umbrella Health...

      Jigsaw: Wait, wait, wait, wait. What's not feasible? By whose mathematical equation is this not feasible?

      William: It's policy, John. It's policy.

      [pause]

      William: And if you go outside the system and seek out this treatment, which has been deemed ineffective, you will be in breach of policy and you will be dropped from coverage completely.

      [pause]

      William: I'm sorry.

      Jigsaw: [gets up from his chair and paces around William's office] Did you know that in the Far East, people pay their doctors when they're healthy? When they're sick, they don't have to pay them. So basically, they end up paying for what they want, not what they don't want.

      [pause]

      Jigsaw: We got it all ass-backwards here. These politicians, they say the same thing over and over and over again; "Healthcare decisions should be made by doctors and their patients, not by the government." Well, now I know they're not made by doctors and their patients or by the government. They're made by the fucking insurance companies.

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: In the Unrated Edition, there's an extra scene after the end credits: Amanda comes to the door of the place holding Corbett Denlon (Jeff Denlon's daughter, who Hoffman "saves" at the beginning of Saw V (2008)) and warns her "not to trust the one who saves her".
    • Alternate versions
      Also available in an unrated director's cut version, which restores deleted scenes and the violence originally cut for an "R" rating. A new scene after the end credits is also added.

    8/10
    Surprisingly good
    Finally, the Saw series has regained some of it's previous credibility. Saw VI proved to be a very bloody, but clever mainstream romp.

    There were a couple of great twists and turns, the gore was jacked up to a fantastic level of brutal extremity (easily beating the rather tame 5th installment), and most importantly, I, plus everyone in the theatre had a ball with it.

    As well as being a valid continuation of the 'Saw' story, it worked well as a standalone film. The main twist actually had nothing do to with the previous movies... but don't get me wrong, you'll get plenty of answers for questions left open from the other films at the same time.

    As you'd expect, the acting and production values weren't to flash, but the good screenplay and balls-out sadistic torture made this a vast improvement over the last couple of sequels. Apart from the first, I'm happy to say this is definitely one of my favorites from the series. 7.5/10.

    Check it out. I found it to be a pleasant surprise.
