Saw IV

In this review Ethan Alter explains why he feels as though jigsaw is dead. He states "Old Jigsaw is as dead as a doornail." He compares the movie to "Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Friday The 13th". He sees Saw as the 21st Century version of those long running franchises, which have racked up a combined 17 films over the past two decades. He feels as though the Saw sequel will not stop until it reaches its 10th series, which is very unneccesary. He states that the Saw movies are fanatical about continuity. He feels that the Saw movies have grown increasingly arbitrary and nonsensical. To conclude his review he feels as though Saw IV is a disappointment.
