Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: The latest and least of the Saw films is just plain boring and even a little tame -- albeit by the standards of a genre that helped bring the phrase "torture porn" into the lexicon.
Rotten: Saw V is dead on the table.
Rotten: Saw V is a terrible combination: grisly and tedious. Let's just call it bloody dull.
Rotten: The periodic traps set for five new victims, all linked by a rotten real-estate deal, are neither as terrifying nor as yucky as in the earlier films. The only real horror in these scenes, in fact, is the jaw-droppingly bad acting on display.

Yes!
A great addition to the Saw series. It is much more similar to the first one and offers something fresh to the table.
Saw 5
I am a big saw movie fan and I have seen all of the other saw movies and they were really good. I went and seen saw 5 in the theaters and I really liked it.
This is not a Saw movie. INTELLIGENT PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE THIS MOVIE.
This is the worst Saw movie of all. As a big fan of the Saw movies, it is very disappointing to see this come out as a sequel to one of the greatest horror films ever. Saw 1 was great and this is not even in the same league. They have given up and think that just because they have had a few good ones, they can now put out late night tv garbage under the Saw name. If anybody likes this movie they, A. Work for either the movie company or Itunes (I have seen some good reviews here and that seriously puts in question the intelligence of the reviewers), B. Are extremely easily entertained, or C. Have confused Saw 5 with another Saw movie. This is the worst garbage movie and I am a fan of Saw movies. I told you the truth. If you like Saw movies and are not retarded, you will think this is the worst one yet. I wish the series could come back from this but I really doubt it because sequels don't typically get better. The bar is very low so this halloween, if there is another one, it probably will be better. How could it not be? This movie is a FAILURE as a movie. As a money making machine, I don't know; depends on how many retards there are that buy or pay to see it. No need to thank me. If you have the guts to see this garbage, assuming you have the ability to graduate middle school, you will agree that this is so, so terrible when you compare it to other Saw movies. Maybe a "great addition" or "great" to a retard and a retard only. This has been another TRUTH. Thanks for tuning in. What is it that has made these favorable reviewers for lack of a better word, Retarded? If you can't even spell definitely, please keep your opinions to yourself. Intelligence, easy but not so easy to come by; I guess. Only the truth here.
