My watch history
Saw
I had some preconceptions about the Saw franchise, but there was a lot more to this than I expected. A lot of backstory, a lot of mystery, and a bunch of things I didn’t see coming.
The scenes with just Cary Elwes and Leigh Whannell were a bit underwhelming. The way the two characters interacted just felt weird. Their actions were a bit too hammed up, I think.
