Saw III
Directed by Darren Lynn Bousman
Jigsaw has disappeared. Along with his new apprentice Amanda, the puppet-master behind the cruel, intricate games that have terrified a community and baffled police has once again eluded capture and vanished. While city detectives scramble to locate him, Doctor Lynn Denlon and Jeff Reinhart are unaware that they are about to become the latest pawns on his vicious chessboard. From TMDB

neutral · AI labelView post →It's the fourth month of 202Saw, which means it's time to watch Saw IV, a movie that mostly takes place at the same time as Saw III. But that's a spoiler!
neutral · AI labelView post →Saw III. I have a specific thing for the film in the series where the direction team just decided to stop trying to make clever films with a horror twist and decided to cash in on putting absurd contraptions on tape.
negative · AI labelView post →My silly little random movie thing will be about Saw III at some point but I think it will actually be about the Zero Escape games. I should play one of those again, they ruled. Saw III doesn't rule.
negative · AI labelView post →After the absolute misery that was watching Saw III with @jazzpomegranate.bsky.social I made her watch Saw IV (a much better movie) and goddammit I forgot how funny the editing was. Also the ice block ending still is as hilarious as it ever is.
negative · AI labelView post →Jeff, the sluggish theoretical protagonist of SAW III. Especially since people keep having to exclaim "Jeff!" throughout the movie.

neutral · AI labelView post →SAW III (2006) also known as "how it's made: saw traps". really more of a recap movie than anything but not a bad one even as the main saw trap is kind of pushed to the background. insane toxic yuri potential in this
neutral · AI labelView post →Holy shit! The Saw III script is even more brutal than the actual movie. Both are cool, though.

neutral · AI labelView post →"Saw III" (2006) was an ok entry in the series. The deepening of the lore and the tie ins with Amanda to the first film were fun. Little twist at the end, of course. But, for fuck's sake. How convoluted and confusing can a plot become? Then, again: how about that "rack" scene 😳 5/10 snowballs ⚪️

To this day, I still regard Saw as a great trilogy, afraid to venture further into inevitable sequelitis of diminishing returns. I’ll probably check out the rest sometime, especially with this movie (1/7)

neutral · AI labelView post →Movie #37: Darren Lynn Bousman's #Saw III: The focus on a strained mentor vs. apprentice relationship and improved directing give this a cut above II, but it's continuing ugliness and cruelty still make it not suitable to be an above average sequel. My ⭐⭐1/2 review
negative · AI labelView post →74. Saw III It's crazy how this movie took three of the most fascinating characters the series had and killed them all off. Meanwhile, Slow Mother Fucking Ass Jeff is here. That said, Amanda's deconstruction of Jigsaw's ideals were fascinating.

Shawnee's wig was terrible and I'm pretty sure this is the last SAW movie they can use any of the actors, because age. But ironically, at his oldest, this movie was the most demanding on Tobin 1/
neutral · AI labelView post →I watched Saw III last night. What a perfect movie when you treat it as the finale it was intended to be. It's not just Amanda's final test, it's John's. He bets everything on this final test. If it succeeds, his methods work. But they don't, because they don't, and everyone dies as a result.
positive · AI labelView post →Saw III(2006)* Score: 7.5/10 Very interesting narative a game participant choice in this movie, because Jeff and Lynn aren't bad people, they're just grieving. But that's what makes Jigsaw a great villain. He's evil even tho he thinks he's not
positive · AI labelView post →2026 movie watches and rewatches Movie #51 Saw III Synopsis: Jigsaw abducts a doctor in order to keep himself alive while he watches his new apprentice put an unlucky citizen named Jeff through a brutal test. Rewatch My Rating: 4.5/5
positive · AI labelView post →Saw III (2006, dir. Darren Lynn Bousman) this film is still partly a chore, the jeff side of the story is a slog and establishes a trap gauntlet formula that is done better later on in the series love the john/amanda stuff, it's like a demented parody of a father/daughter drama 6/10
