Seeing Saw will obviously fill you with the suspense and anticipation that you paid to see. It will leave you hanging off the edge of your seat like you most likely assumed. However, if you expect any real answers to questions you may ponder on during the movie, don't expect them. It was a good movie all-in-all with great scenes and wonderfully thought up ideas. However, it would not be a movie that I'd pay twice to see. It not only has you hanging off the edge of your seat(good,) but leaves you dangling there while the credits start rolling(bad.) In many movies and stories, that's a great aspect of a movie. But not in this one.
It is right to be compared to Seven, as most people did. However, I believe Seven tops this one beyoind belief. Also, I compared it to the movie "Phone Booth" in the way that it is based on killings that occur in the hopes of teaching people lessons.
I'd recommend a first-screening of this film, but if you are intending on going, don't get frustrated at the lack of good acting at the begining. It soon picks up a bit. That's all I can really say without giving anything away that wasn't already said or done in the trailors.
