Saw 3D 2010

Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: It's all bunk and has been for years. Read more

Mike Hale, New York Times: Be aware: if you see the film in a theater equipped with RealD 3D and Dolby sound, you'll come away with a pretty good idea of what it would feel like to have flying body parts hit you in the face. Read more

Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out: Like a stumpy limb requiring quick cauterization via steam pipe (our first cringe), the Saw series is begging for closure. Read more

Nathan Rabin, AV Club: Saw has shown a ferocious unwillingness to evolve. Read more

Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: This series never cared for filmmaking. It never cared for human life. Now it doesn't even care for its audience or itself, scraping together the gist of the other movies, simply in order to have something to sell for Halloween. Read more

Ignatiy Vishnevetsky, Chicago Reader: Strange, dumb, and sometimes even fun. Read more

Adam Graham, Detroit News: Saw 3D is the dumbest and most illogical entry in the Saw series -- quite an accomplishment, given that the Saw movies are the dumbest, most illogical series of horror films of the millennium. Read more

Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: Saw 3D is sicko-exploitative, viscera-spewing trash, but at least it has a lean and mean pace and focus, and it isn't clotted with backstory. Read more

Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter: It's unfortunate that the creators killed off their villain so early in the series, since Mandylor's Hoffman is an exceedingly bland stand-in. Read more

Michael Ordona, Los Angeles Times: Cinema's premier torture-porn franchise at long last comes to a grisly end with Saw 3D, its seventh and possibly most meritless entry. And that's saying something. Read more

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News: You know things are bad when you've started feeling sorry for your villain. Read more

Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com: I'm grateful that I (presumably) never have to see any more of these ever again. Read more

Jason Anderson, Toronto Star: Though the film hardly ends the series on a triumphant note, it still qualifies as one of the better entries. Read more

Rob Nelson, Variety: At least for non-fans, the sole mercy shown by Lionsgate's latest Saw is that it's billed as the last and plays that way, wrapping things up without the threat of making another killing after this one. Read more

Nick Schager, Village Voice: The same old putrid corpse. Read more
