- Synopsis:
- John Kramer (Tobin Bell) is back. The 'Saw' franchise's most chilling installment yet explores the untold chapter of Jigsaw's most personal game. Set between the events of 'Saw I' and 'II', this story finds a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure in hopes of obtaining a miracle cure for his cancer - only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable.

One of the best sequels in the Saw series - Saw X review by AER
Who would've thought that the 11th Saw film would be amongst the very best of the sequels. I may even be the best sequel. Just when it looked like it was all out of ideas, they made Spiral with big stars. It was a disaster and came across as a fan-made fart of a film... Saw X thinks outside the box and gives us something different (whilst still containing the gory traps that are central to the film). Somehow, they;ve made Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) semi-sympathetic by making his victims even worse than he is (by miles). But the film's strength lies in plain sight, it gives the most intriguing charcter, Jigsaw, centre stage. And Tobin Bell is a fine actor, and he recognises that this is his turn to shine.
It's a shame that the film kind of conks out towards the end and the pay-off hinges on coincidences rather than mapped out plans. But given that this is set between Saw 1 & 2, Jigsaw and Amanda were still early in the game and prone to making mistakes. They just claim everything went to plan at the end... even after they lost control of their captives. An interesting sequel. Not without it's faults, it's still very entertaining and stands out from the pack. Definitely an improvement on Spiral, that's for sure.
