Review of Saw X

Saw X (2023)
8/10
Different take and surprisingly better sequel.

4 out of 5 stars.

Saw X is a good horror film that takes the franchise into a whole new level which has more of a story than letting blood and gore take over. Yes it does have blood and gore but focuses more on John Kramer perspective as he goes after a group of scammers.

The film starts out a little slow with John going to Mexico. Discovering a group that saves people from there terminal illness. Only to find out they scam people for money while they don't perform the miracle surgeries. He grabs each one and places them into bloody traps for there redemption.

Good plot. The traps are brutal and gory. But the film does not let the gore take over while letting the story be the focus group. Great cast ensemble lead by Tobin Bell. The films plot twist was good but the fate on one character in a trap is left with a little disappointment. There is a mid credit scene that will leave the fans surprised. Overall, it may be a fresh new direction for the franchise and it was really needed.
