"At its core, "Saw III" is a life lesson surrounded in blood, gore and violence. As with the first two films, serial killer Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) wants his subjects to understand life is a fragile thing and they should respect themselves and each other because life can be taken away at any time. This time out, he wants to teach one more lesson: the lesson of forgiveness. To that end, he has protégé Amanda (Shawnee Smith) kidnap a couple with marital problems. The wife, Lynn, is a doctor charged with keeping Jigsaw alive long enough for the other participant to make his way through the maze. The husband, Adam, is thrown into different tasks, all of which revolve around people associated with his son's death. Can Adam put his hate and vengeance aside long enough to work his way through the maze? Will Lynn keep Jigsaw breathing with rudimentary medical instruments and the constant threat of an explosive collar around her neck? The "Saw" franchise has succeeded-relatively ... "

"What I liked: -This movie has much more of a storyline than the other two, it really kicks it up a knotch. The special effects were gruesomly disturbing, yet awesome, as well. I definately did not expect the twist at the end. What i didnt like:I dont think there was anything about this movie i didnt like. "

"I'll keep this short. The reason it says on my little star thing I disliked it is because there's no way to make the little stars say I hated this movie. There was no plot and no point to the whole thing. It's just gross and stupid. Please don't even go near this stinker. "

"Sun Tzu-fan Paris Hilton will star (!) as Paul Sorvino’s daughter (!!) in Repo! The Genetic Opera, a “musical thriller” from Saw III director Darren Lynn Bousman (!!!). Sometimes the jokes just write themselves, and in this case, I can’t top Variety’s logline: “Hilton will sing in a futuristic thriller framed around musical numbers that range from opera to rock. The setting is 2056, when a plague nearly destroys the human race and survival is dependent upon being able to finance a pricey organ transplant.” Speaking of celebutantes that were thought to be unemployable, a Reuters story picked up by The Hollywood Reporter warns us not to write off Lindsay Lohan, because “no actor is uninsurable.” An expert quoted in the story says something along the lines of, “I got insurance for Robert Downey Jr. I could insure Lindsay Lohan barefoot with somebody els "

"By Tricia Olszewski It’s not often that the worst part of a horror film is too much dialogue. But Saw III nearly ruins its improbable superiority over the franchise’s predecessors with a stupefying amount of denouement gab. The theme of III is generally the same as the others’: Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), the villain whose public face is a ridiculous apple-cheeked puppet, has made it his mission to kidnap those who are wasting their time above ground and persuade them to live as if they were dying—that is, if the victims actually survive his death traps, which they ostensibly should be able to if they truly value their lives. This installment, directed by the returning Darren Lynn Bousman and written by Leigh Whannell, one of the original’s creators (along with James Wan), doesn’t exactly begin well. The first’s cut-off-your-limbs gambit is repeated, and then the popular jittery-camera cop-out obscures a few immediate and unpleasant passings. Wha ... "

"The best so far out of the "Saw" movies. It had more blood & gore, more backstory, and was at a much quicker pace. It keeps you guessing/wondering 'til the end, but has plenty to occupy you before that spectacular finale. So sick and vile that you got to give it props for its repulsiveness. It made me happy! "

"Lately Dr. Lynn Denoln (Bahar Soomekh) has been going through some marital problems and the anxiety is beginning to affect her work. Late one night after finishing her shift at the hospital she is kidnapped and taken to an abandoned warehouse. Shortly after waking up, she soon meets the notorious Jigsaw (Tobin Bell). He is currently dying slowly as the minutes pass and Amanda (Shawnne Smith), Jigsaw's sidekick, tells Lynn she has been kidnapped in order to keep him alive. Alive long enough for someone else that's also been kidnapped named Jeff (Angus MacFadyen), to complete his very own game. While telling Lynn this, Amanda places a collar around Lynn's neck that is connected to Jigsaw's heart rate. If his heart rate drops below zero before Jeff completes his game, the shotgun shells on the collar will all simultaneously go off at the same time. Amanda then preps Lynn as Jigsaw explains, "it's a test of will. It's a test to see just how willing you are ... "

"We ended the weekend with a little bit of gore. Ok, I usually like a good horror flick. I love gory movies and I really did like the original Saw. But this is getting a little ridiculous. Jigsaw is becoming reminiscent of Freddy and Jason. There was at least a plot in this one(if you can call it a plot), where there really didn't seem to be a plot in the previous Saw movies. If you are a gore lover this movie is for you. It has creative traps and enough blood last me a long time.This is not one of those horror flicks that will keep me up at night like The Grudge or The Ring (I am shuddering just thinking about that). It was what it was, a gore filled, creative thinking, Sunday afternoon horror flick.Overall Score: C "

"As goes the cliche, so goes the detractors of the Saw series. It's my honest feeling that those who rail against this inventive series are either jealous of its success or of such weak, spineless material that they can't take a little blood, pain and suffering. The series rules and every gory installment can be found described to the last red drop on http://www.bloodgutsandgore.co m. ;) "
