Was shown in Philippine theaters months after "Saw 3D" was screened there. This mainly had to do with the film's distributor in the country, Pioneer Films, having trouble editing the film to achieve a wider, friendlier rating (R-13), as opposed to the American version which would have received an R-18. Pioneer Films was targeting as many screens as possible, and the biggest movie theater chain in the country, SM Cinemas, have not played R-18 films since May 2006. See more »

John Kramer says he doesn't care about the cost of surgery since he is very wealthy. However, when his insurance claim for an overseas treatment is denied by William, he seemingly forgets this fact. He simply derides William and just accepts defeat despite the fact that he, by his own admission, could afford to just travel overseas and receive the treatment anyway. Furthermore, why would John, who in a flashback castigated William for his immoral business practices, take insurance from him in the first place? See more »
SPOILER: There's an extra scene after the end credits: Amanda comes to the door of the place holding the little girl (the one that Hoffman "saves" at the end of Saw IV) and tells her "not to trust the one who saves her". See more »
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. See more »
I thought this movie was just as good as the first one if not maybe better. I'm giving it a 7 just because Im a really tough grader but be assured this is a really great movie. Im a pretty big fan of the Saw series and have liked every one but this one may take the cake along with the original. This Saw was actually a movie and had a plot behind it and also revealed a lot of unanswered questions from the other Saw's. It wasn't just a filler type movie like I thought the other ones were. There are a lot of good twists and turns but without giving anything away just play close attention and you will be able to figure the stuff out on your own before it happens. But still a great movie. Well worth the 8 dollars
