About
You may like Saw V if you enjoy grim, puzzle-box horror with brutal tests and an investigation that keeps circling back on itself; not for you if you want a clear story or fresh surprises, unlike The Collector or The Collection.
Pros: tense investigation; brutal traps; strong returning presence | Cons: confusing story; uneven pacing; weak surprises
