Ohhh well look at that, Se7en has 93% of the vote and Saw has 7%.....deserves more if you ask me...Se7en is better than Saw, but it still deserves more.

After having watched Saw today, I can safely say it has nothing on Se7en.

I've seen the movie Saw, and its pretty good, but it has major plot holes, and a lot of questions that are not answered by the end of the film, which I hate. I have never seen Se7en, but after looking at this thread I feel like going to rent it, and see what it is like.

Saw is an innovative movie. But Seven is an exceptional movie. It has great acting (which Saw clearly lacks), a good story and a fantastic ending. Seven is a clssic and Saw is a decent movie.
John Doe (Spacey) has one of the best replies ever to Pitt's comment that they would have eventually caught him.

A worthy original screenplay. Give it a chance and no need comparing it to Seven. Cause it was never its intention to be compared to it.

 Re: Ok Folks.. Which Is Better?? SE7EN or SAW??? BKB_The_Man wrote: I was at Blockbuster Video last night and sort of had a Morbid Curiosity as to what the movie "SAW" was like and decided to give it a shot and the Blockbuster Video Girl said this movie was Better than the movie "SE7EN" With Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman.. I looked at her and said, "Really"?? "That's Quite a Bold Statement"... Unfortunately, All copies were Sold Out which shocked me..  Is this true that this movie is better than "SE7EN" before I give this movie "SAW" a shot or what?? I thought "SE7EN" was quite good, but barbaric as hell and after the movie was over, you sort of felt like shit and needed to delouse and shower.. Is "SAW" much like this or what??  Se7en is one of my all time fasve movies "Saw" is good but not as good not even close.
I saw it in the theaters. No its no where near as good as Se7en c ause that movie rocked! and had no plot holes at all. this has lots of holes but its still very good. Its slow moving and odd. scarey part for me is the bad guyt looks like my old boss I think you might enjoy in if you liked Se7en you should pretty much like this film still its not as good.

HOLY SHIT!!!! "SAW" was AWESOME!!! I can't believe how lopsided this Poll is with "SE7EN" running away with the results here and "SAW" taking it in the ass the way you all go on about it.. This movie had more twists and turns that threw me off in every scene I watched that was well executed in both story and ending that was flat out more BRILLIANT than anything "SE7EN" Had to offer.. Come on folks.. You all harp on about how the acting in "SAW" was cheesy and that Cary Elwes over did it and all, but Jesus if I didn't see that ending coming at all.. That was PERFECT... Hell, 1 moment I thought it was the Doctor, than I thought it was Adam, but no it wasn't Adam, and then I thought it was the Orderly when the Doctor was discussing that patient who had a tumor, but CHRIST!!! What an Ending and all around movie.. Better than WHITE NOISE, Better than AVP, BETTER THAN ANYTHING I'VE SEEN THIS YEAR THUS FAR.. I thinik based in the results of this Poll, "SAW" should be ALOT higher than all you refuse to give it credit for.. BRILLIANT and out of a possible **** stars, I give it ****/****..
AWESOME AWESOME MOVIE!!!!! =D> =D>

Saw is a good movie that completely falls apart at the end. It totally kills the credibility of all that came before. Se7en is better.
Saw B

AWESOME AWESOME MOVIE!!!!! =D> =D> Holy jumpin' fucking Jesus. For once in the history of time... me and BKB COMPLETELY agree. It's time to throw a party, where only myself and BKB are invited. A pants party? No no no, I'll leave that joke for bABA. But, free DVDs of Saw for everyone!... well, you can get your free DVD at your local Blockbuster... well, for a price, actually. And pick up Se7en while you're there, most of you like it more anyway.

I actually didnt have a problem with Saw's acting, it was mostly the script dialouge that was weak. Anyways I liked the movie - but I guess teh hype with the ending and everything being so great ruined the movie for me a bit. The ending wasnt anything special and sorta stupid ( the guy just lying there that whole time unnoticed, never moving ) the movie wasnt even scary at all. Yeah it's like Se7en in the vein that it tries to copy it in alot of ways - but it isnt as good as it.

To add insult to injury, the VERY observant DOCTOR who was in the room with him for hours didn't notice him breathing. #-o
He noticed just about everything else in the room...

lol../..BKB the ending in saw sucked....Well...no it didnt suck, but it wasnt possible. It was sort of a let down for me. Plus, seven is just...brilliant, brilliant actors...everything. It will always be miles ahead of saw in my opinion

Saw is a fantastic movie. The ending is absolutely brilliant. Se7en is also brilliant, though. Though Se7en's ending is nowhere close to the greatness of Saw's ending. I freakin' loved Saw.

Think about it. Jigsaw makes Zap do all this by putting a type of venom (or something, I forget what he put) into his body, and only he carried the antitode. That's possible. Jigsaw lays in the middle of the room during this whole thing, possibly using the thing he used on that one guy who got ripped open by the girl. Basically, he was temperarily paralyzed. Why not? It's not like he timed it, because technically, it didn't end at 6:00pm. There were events that happened after 6:00pm. He had a mask on. They obviously couldn't have known it was the old guy from the hospital if he had a mask on. That's not impossible.
He could have manipulated everything in the story easily. Everything was pre-planned. I don't see how it was impossible.
