Author Topic: Saw 4 (2007) Phil Blake Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 558 From: esperance western australia Registered: Nov 2003 posted 10-25-2007 05:17 AM                        undoubtedly the worst film I have seen for the year , it was just pure pointless crap. It is a pity the first one started with a new look a horror in the 2000's it had an interesting plot which did work this one is so watered down I longed for it to finish. 1 out out of 5 stars from me on this one.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 10-26-2007 05:47 AM                     quote: Phil Blake pure pointless crap I was thinking about what I would write about this turd on the drive home...but I think Phil put it best. I was BORED!!! The only entertainment I got out of this movie was opening the cans (complete with fake name...as if someone would want to bootleg this shit) only to find out the the leaders ALSO had a fake name on them!!!!! Again, Lion's Gate...please ask yourself this question. Who in their right mind would want to bootleg this??? Of course the good news is that it is possible the lab will lose the negatives due to the fake name nonsense and the world will be spared of this movie in the future. This is a very tired old franchise that keeps getting worse and worse with every sequel. It is pointless and boring, yet you can tell the writers and the director really think they are making some sort of life changing horror movie. Well boys, nope. Sorry, but you failed...again! Phil was way too generous. 1/2 out of 5 stars To Lion's Gate, please stop making these stupid Saw movies!  |  IP: Logged Matt Barth Film Handler Posts: 46 From: Albuquerque, NM 87109 Registered: Oct 2005 posted 10-26-2007 11:24 AM                     I loved 1-3. Last night I was so upset at how 4 was done. This one did what so many people expected, it's guaranteed the remainder of the franchise a place among Exorcist, Psycho, and Halloween on the straight-to-DVD sequel racks. ---Matt  |  IP: Logged Chad M Calpito Master Film Handler Posts: 435 From: San Diego, CA Registered: Apr 2006 posted 10-26-2007 05:20 PM                        After building this up early this morning, I ran it through and highly enjoyed it. Opening the film cans and building up this film seemed like an eternity, but, was well worth the wait to screen it. Definately worth my time.  |  IP: Logged
