Brief synopsis of Saw III - BLU-RAY Version

In 2004, a low-budget horror film about a man who put people with moral failings into grisly, murderous situations became a huge hit. In 2005, the sequel scored again, upping the body count and the terror. In 2006, the franchise continued, with plenty of gore as well as an emotional story line that delved into the psychological makeup of the main characters. As SAW II concluded, Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) was dying. But that doesn't mean his penchant for playing games of torture and violence is ending. In SAW 3, the murders start occurring again, and Kerry (Dina Meyer) is back on the case, although she thinks this time it might be the work of a copycat. She's only partly right: Amanda (Shawnee Smith), the only victim to have survived both movies, has joined Jigsaw as his apprentice, leading the way through a terrifying game involving Lynn (Bahar Soomekh), a doctor in an unhappy marriage, and Jeff (Angus Macfadyen), a distraught man who is having trouble getting over the loss of his son (Stefan Georgiou) at the hands of a drunk driver. Amanda has captured Lynn and placed her in a neck brace that is linked to Jigsaw's heart monitor; she must keep Jigsaw alive or else the brace will explode. Meanwhile, Jeff is sent on a dangerous journey on which he faces all the people involved in the light penalty his boy's killer received--and it is up to him whether he will seek vengeance or offer forgiveness. Helmed by SAW II director Darren Lynn Bousman and written by original SAW screenwriter and star Leigh Whannell (with a story by Whannell and SAW director James Wan), SAW 3 is an intricately designed, gruesome thriller with a hard-driving soundtrack featuring songs by Slayer, Helmet, and All that Remains.

Rated - 0 starsWhat is the point...really?

Treadstone from London [Highly rated reviewer] , 07/02/2008

I have seen all the Saw movies and the sole reason I rented the third installment was becuase it was in Blu Ray. Like the predecessors, Jigsaw continues in his twisted, psychotic crusade to convince people that their lives really ain't so bad by setting them up in situations whereby inevitably they are tortured and in most cases, slaughtered in the most sickening, gut wrenching manner (albeit at their own hands apparently). Deepdown, this Jigsaw fellow really is a nice man with morals. Erm, yeah right...

So what is the point of these movies? Actually...I really don't know. Theres a bit of a twist but not a particularly good one. People who enjoy these movies really ought to seek psychological help. As for the people who make these movies, I have to wonder what deranged, freaks they really are. The world is f*cked enough as it is, I found myself asking myself...is this really entertainment? Nope. Not at all.

If you have loved all the other saw movies then this wont disappoint you. It helps answer some things you are left wondering about.

Great movie and fantastic quality on Blu-Ray which I play on my PS3.

Rated - 4 starsgorey and twisted

A customer from london , 13/11/2007

having watch the first two in standard def, i decided to rent the blu ray version of saw 3.

Anyone who tells you they can't see the difference between hi def and standard def is probably blind or hasn't watched hi def.

This movie in hi def makes you cringe and look away from the screen. the sound is awesome too.

If you have a blu ray player, rent it and see if your stomach can handle it.

Rated - 3 starsNot for the squeamish

A customer from Reading , 15/11/2007

The third installment of the Saw franchise and the gut churning gore is upped another notch. No huge surprises from a film perspective but we do get to see a little bit of flashback story explanation. Otherwise its essentially Saw de rigeur with another line of 'gorno' set pieces culminating in a final showdown. As with most modern horrors, not exactly scary but will make you feel a little queasy.
