Jigsaw [Blu-ray + DVD]

good

Jigsaw ( 2017) is one of the best movies of 2017. Definitely the best of its genre for 2017. In Jigsaw, we are treated to a new wave of games, a bunch of red-herrings pertaining to who is the new apprentice? Spoilers: After all the twists the Speirig brothers put in this movie, you wont be satisfied till after seeing it a few more times. It has so many twists you didnt see coming, that is until you rewatch & realize that theres subtle hints that prove both clever & useful. The movie is set up as a half Saw movie & half crime drama, and though that mix hasnt been seen in the previous entries to this degree, it works out very well. The games are very interesting though there is some confusion throughout as to the timeline. It took me a couple of times to figure out the answers to my original questions but then I had more questions pile on that I didnt know to ask the first time around. This isnt to say that the movie doesnt make sense, but rather it keeps you thinking. The cast & crew did an excellent job at revitalizing the franchise after its period of hibernation due to the original plan of making Saw VII be the actual final chapter. Unfortunately, none of our questions pertaining to Dr. Gordon, his pigmen helpers or Det. Hoffman were answered but this movie was focused on introducing a new apprentice and showing said apprentice’s backstory & connection to the franchise. So all in all, great story, epic new games, mind boggling twists & some red-herrings for good measure, all I can say is: Cant wait for Jigsaw 2!

Jigsaw 4K [4K + Blu-ray] [4K UHD]Played 4k disc in PS5 and it played the entire movie perfectlyIncluded code successfully redeemed the 4k digital movie on Vudu / FandangoCase arrived in perfect condition and included the slip coverLighting and colors in this one was stunning on OLED

The media could not be loaded. I think that owning a disc is the move. Streaming services are so unreliable. They take movies off and then you can’t watch them. With the disc you actually own it and can watch it whenever. But it’s a good deal because you get a digital download code, a regular disc, and blu ray disc. Good value. Love the art on the discs. Wish they would continue the series cuz it’s gold. Would 100% recommend to saw fans or horror movie fans.

It's been awhile since we've seen a Saw movie, hell I thought we'd never see one again. Years later and the horror movie landscape awash with new cliches and boundaries, John Kramer's work has returned to show once again that Jigsaw is the king of modern-day horror. I've always thought the Saw series is perhaps one of the best constructed horror franchises story-wise, just in the way that they tie together the timelines and intricate details throughout every plot. To an extent of course, as the films began to suffer from the exploitation of the gore which was one of the many attractions to the Saw franchise. This is the 8th film the franchise, and sets out to rejuvenate the series.Many horror franchises don't see 7 films within 7 years, but Saw did that. So to come back after some time, they had to do something new. While I'll admit that the first viewing of this film didn't particularly impress me, it was after the Special Features that I sort of understood why parts of the film were more bland than usual. And yes, of course a second viewing always points out details in the characters that you didn't notice the first time, so it adds that additional layer to the movie. It's well worth watching the audio commentary to learn about this film as well, and to watch it for the second time to appreciate it for what it is.The Spierig Brothers who did the vampire film Daybreakers, state throughout the Special Features that they wanted to avoid the commonplace things about the Saw franchise, such as the high level of gore. A lot of the producers and crew also agreed that to give this series the rebirth it deserves, they had to take a step back to the original Saw and the suspense that created with so little. While it comes nowhere close to that caliber of tension, it is somewhat refreshing to see new things in an established franchise like this. There were a lot of outdoor scenes for a series that was commonly shot in interiors. Also, not having a ton of gore and it being featured at critical times throughout gave Jigsaw a lot more punch. I think the scene with the 3 syringes has the best FX of the film, it was totally brutal and worth the admission.The characters are all really great too, and the actors all have moments where they have to make the audience think that they could be the killer or reveal their true "crimes". I saw about halfway through the film how it might have ended based on the way the film had played out to that point. However, it definitely keeps you guessing up until the end and when it all starts to click together you know "oh that's why that didn't make sense" or "oh that's why they said that" which is really cool. I commend the team who worked on Jigsaw for trying to expand this universe, as it's completely worth another look for maybe an entirely new Jigsaw series for us horror/Saw fans. It doesn't do anything new, but for those that are essentially tuning into Saw 8 would you expect any differently?Jigsaw does enough differently to stand out among a few of its predecessors, but not enough to immediately revitalize the franchise. I would give the film 3 stars on its own, but this release not only has the Special Features on the 4K disc (a rarity in the market right now), but they're all great ones at that. There's a 5-part documentary essentially about the making of Jigsaw with a lot of great interviews, and then there's a short bit on the props of the film which seems to have been cut from the aforementioned documentary. The audio commentary is also great and one of those that makes the movie immediately worth re-watching at home again. So for all of the Special Features included on both the 4K & Blu-ray discs that enhance the film in many ways, I'd give this release 4-stars.Case came in great condition with slipcover. 4K, Blu-ray, and digital copies were included in this release. Hope this is the beginning of more Saw films!

I’ve seen the movie in theaters and wanted to buy the DVD to finish my collection. It is exactly what is says and plays well.
