Saw V

SAW V (2008) - Oct. 25, 2008
Another October, another mediocre installment in the Saw saga. This one is slightly better than the last one, if only because it wasn't ridiculously convoluted. Also, David Hackl's direction, while bland, was at least competent and not full of empty stylishness like the aggressively bad Darren Lynn Bousman. The scenes with the strangers stuck in a typically convoluted series of traps were essentially entertaining, but all the stuff with the detective investigating Jigsaw was dull and pretty much completely superfluous. **1/2
