John Kramer (Tobin Bell) is back. The most chilling installment of the SAW franchise yet explores the untold chapter of Jigsaw's most personal game. Set between the events of SAW I and II, a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure in hopes of a miracle cure for his cancer -- only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable. Armed with a newfound purpose, John returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature visceral way through a series of ingenious and terrifying traps.

Critics Consensus

Led by a franchise-best performance from Tobin Bell, Saw X reinvigorates the series with an installment that has a surprising amount of heart to go with all the gore.

Audience Says

Adding dimension to the franchise's main characters while still leaving plenty of room for the gruesomely graphic horror these movies are known for, Saw X might be the best sequel in the series so far.

Charles Bramesco

Inside Hook

X frames Kramer like a tragic hero instead of a complete maniac with a thing for Rube Goldberg homicide, and swears by the wobbly moral mechanism he believes will balance his soul’s ledger.

The Atlantic

[Previous reboots] both failed to grasp Kramer’s star power. Saw X does not make that mistake, leading to one of the franchise’s strongest installments since the original, mostly because it gives Jigsaw center stage.

Joshua Rothkopf

Los Angeles Times

[Tobin Bell's] half-cracked grandeur, boosted by [Shawnee] Smith’s skewed stares of adoration, sends the movie into a loopy giddiness. Saw X may not be the best one to start off with, but it’s hard to imagine a better one to end with.

Daily Dead

It may have taken nine films to get there, but Saw X finally figures out that playing to its strengths and getting in on the joke is the best way out of its own trap.

John Kramer: antihero is so, so much more interesting than anything this franchise has done in eons.

Marlena Love love love it ! Cant wait until the second part ! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/23/23 Full Review Jason by far the worst song movie Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/14/23 Full Review Andrew pretty good fell in line of what you expect from a saw movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/27/23 Full Review Juandi This movie is so overhyped. It’s very repetitive & completely predictable from start to finish. I should’ve went with my gut & skipped this. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/14/23 Full Review Joanie I'm a huge fan of this series and this one is by far my new favorite. It's interesting to see Jigsaw put into an anti-hero role. Surprisingly wholesome with some fun cameos from fan favorites with some really good plot twists! I'd love to see more like this, and, as always, Tobin Bell is a treasure. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/15/23 Full Review Dj A good all around movie. The violence wasnt everything I wanted but it met the plot. Im anticipated another chapter. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
