How does the new Saw movie compare?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Critics are sharing their opinions on Saw X, with reviews for the new horror prequel now pouring in online. Directed by Kevin Greuter, the latest installment in the long-running horror franchise sees Tobin Bell's John Kramer, aka Jigsaw, return to exact his deliciously gory form of vengeance upon a group of medical scammers in Mexico.
Ahead of the Saw X release date, critics are now sharing their full thoughts on the new prequel, and the sentiment is generally positive. Franck Scheck of THR praises the film and its new focus on Bell's character, writing "these films are undeniably fiendishly clever in the way they make Kramer somehow sympathetic even while he’s doing monstrous things to people.
What The Saw X Reviews Are Saying About The Movie Meagan Navarro of Bloody Disgusting is also enthusiastic about the movie, praising the traps as "brutal and unrestrained; prepare for a lot of wincing at the screen. But they carry with them an emotional impact on both the characters and the story.
Keeping the praise coming, Ian Sandwell of Digital Spy calls it "the most effective Saw sequel yet," but he also echoes a common criticism that appears in several reviews for the film, writing, "They do take too long to get to the moment when Kramer realises the miracle cure for his cancer in Mexico is just a scam.
Tessa Smith of Mama's Geeky is also enthusiastic about the new movie, praising the intersection of brutal gore and emotional storytelling. She writes: "While the traps certainly play a part in why the movie is as good as it is, the real reason Saw X shines is because of the personal and emotional story that is woven into it.
