Saw V Cinema Review


It seems the gore will never end as the fifth instalment of the brutal Saw series hits our screens.

Jigsaw died in the last film, so that should really have been a perfect reason to conclude the series at Saw IV but, that hasn’t turned out to be the case. Even without the main instigator, the show must go on and the blood must flow.

Saw V interchanges between the past and the present, it backtracks through the previous plot lines to reveal hidden aspects that we’ve never been shown before, whilst also giving us a taste of how Jigsaw’s work is being carried on in his memory by an accomplice in the present day.

The film gives us a bit more background as to Jigsaw’s reasoning behind the things he does and although this does feel a bit like one Saw film too many, it is still entertaining and of course incredibly gruesome.

Saw has definitely not lost its ability to make audiences squirm and cringe and it will have many people sat on the edge of their seats awaiting the next bloody task for the victims to endure.

One piece of advice though…don’t go to see this film with a full stomach!
