 If you've managed to keep up with the increasingly incomprehensible Saw franchise, then you've done better than most. With the Jigsaw killer dead but not forgotten, there is a new man in charge of the gruesome devices set to test the morals of the immoral.
The sheer brilliance and originality of the first film will, by definition, have diminished by this the sixth outing. That said this film does have moments which stand out and the inventiveness of the action (if not the story) make it worth a watch. The plot speeds along at a welcome pace, never pausing long enough to make you wonder what is going on. The new villain of the piece is convincing enough and the fact that he is playing for both sides (being a cop as well as a vindictive so and so) make for an engaging character.
We still need Jigsaw (played by Tobin Bell) to drive things along, no bad thing when he is arguably the most iconic character of the past decade. There is a neat twist at the end which kept me guessing and it's all covered with the trademark gore we've come to expect.

SAW THE RIDE:
The boasts a nerve-shredding beyond vertical drop of 100° from a staggering height of 100ft.
Based on the most popular horror film franchise in history, ‘SAW’, the new ride also boasts a variety of macabre features that mimic the sinister trap and torture scenarios portrayed in the films. Most significantly, riders will have to face the ‘head chopper’ at the base of the huge freefall drop which consists of four huge serrated blades that riders are hurtled towards giving the feeling that they will be beheaded.
In addition to plummeting its riders from nerve-shredding heights towards the head chopper, SAW – The Ride is also the biggest G-force rollercoaster experience in Europe. The coaster hits between a massive 4.0 and 4.7G’s a total of six times throughout the course of the 100 second ride duration subjecting its passengers to a more extreme G-force experience than a space shuttle rocket launch.
