As I sat down to watch the 2008 movie "Saw V" again here in 2023, it was my second time of watching it.
The storyline in "Saw V", as written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan, is actually a fairly enjoyable script and storyline. "Saw V" carries on the legacy of the previous four movies in a good way, so the writers managed to carry on the torch nicely. I was adequately entertained throughout the 92 minutes that the movie ran for.
The cast ensemble in "Saw V" was good, withScott Patterson, Costas Mandylor and Tobin Bell returning to reprise their characters from the previous movies. And that was a good thing, because it definitely was in the spirit of the continuity of the franchise. And "Saw V"saw new performers make an entrance in the franchise, with the likes of talents such as Mark Rolston and Greg Bryk.
The amount of visceral scenes, mutilations, gore and deadly contraptions was good in the movie. And there were some rather brutal moments as well. So as a life-long gorehound, I was entertained.
If you have been enjoying the previous four "Saw" movies, then you certainly should carry on with this 2008 fifth movie in the franchise, because it is an enjoyable and entertaining movie from director David Hackl.
My rating of "Saw V" lands on a six out of ten stars.
