  Saw VI 2009

  ★★★★½ Watched 29 Sep 2023 1

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  When Devon Bostick said, “You killed my father, you motherfucker”, I just knew this was a certified hood nigga classic.

  ★★★★★ Watched 20 Jul 2023 3

  By far, one of the best films I’ve ever seen in my lifetime. It is an abstract, mature, dialogue-heavy, and beautiful movie that creates a new standard for dramas and blockbusters for today’s time while also taking us backwards through time. It’s a film that has blown my mind of what is possible in order to tell a gripping story in a cinematic way.
