Fun fact: This is the longest episode of 'The Chris Rock Show' ever.
Jokes aside,
I appreciate Chris Rock for trying to breathe new life in this dead franchise while also bringing something topical into the mix. They tried at least.
Not the best in the series, but not the worst either. Although I thought some of the Saw traps were really lackluster this time around. Bland and nothing special. Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson were fine, but I couldn't shake of the feeling this was the longest comedy sketch that kept building its punchline.
And why is it called 'From the Book of Saw'? Where's the box filled with saws in it!?
Also, it's weird how the movie 'Forrest Gump' exist in the Saw world, because Chris Rock's character makes a joke about it early in the movie. So Tom Hanks and the goofy looking Robert Zemeckis exist in this sick world....well our lives.
So yeah, those were my random thoughts on the movie. It kinda says a lot about the movie itself.
