Saw V

As much as I hate to say it, the Saw franchise has officially hit the downturn. Saw V started out somewhat engaging but the film quickly headed into the realm of the boring. This had to be the dullest entry in the series. There were no scares, no shocks, no surprises, and no grim humor. It followed the worst by the numbers formula not see since the sequel crazy 1980's.

And, by the way, Jigsaw is DEAD. Using clips of flashbacks is absurd because it seems as if the series is trying to hang on to its main villain even though the villain is no longer part of the series.

Yes, this film has don huge numbers and the sixth film is on the way, but I can't see the Saw franchise maintaining its audience with anymore weak entries. The series needs a major overhaul or else fans will start looking elsewhere.
