Has anyone viewed the movie "Saw"? (Yes, I changed the wording, "Have you saw Saw", just sounds odd.)

I saw it Friday night, and let me say I loved it! I really enjoy the thrillers such as that, much like Seven.

I heard it got terrible reviews, but I never listen to those people. Any feedback on if you did/didn't like it and why?

I heard the acting was awful so I kinda chickened out.

True, the acting wasn't the best, but I still think it was worth a watch.

I was following the trailers for this movie for about the last 3 or 4 months, I especially liked the ones that said, what the F@#k in the previews. Haven't seen it yet, but plan to real soon.

Saw was all-right, mildly amusing at that.

The acting is pretty subpar...ESPECIALLY Cary Elwes. But the storyline is interesting. It's OK, if you're not expecting too much.

It would have been: "Have you seen Saw?"
"You rise," he said, "like Aurora."

Ya, I heard he is so bad it is hard to take the rest of the movie seriously.

A woman has a bear trap rigged to her face and has two hours to tear open a man, who is alive, to find the key burried in his stomach.

The other scenarios are much worse.

Does this movie say something about those who enjoy watching it?

It was a pretty nasty movie, and I found it funny that the folks at the theater were not scared... they just laughed. Again there were some funny parts. But the movie was f'd up.
