Espiral: O Legado de Jogos Mortais

While this had some good moments and good traps and a decent storyline, this isn't anything special or new, and should have been far more superior than it was. Chris Rock was better than I expected but I still think I'd like to have seen someone else in the role. Unfortunately though this was far too predictable as it's very obvious early on who the Jigsaw copycat is. Unlike other films there wasn't much subtlely. A shame as they had an opportunity here to make something really exciting.

This movie legitimately could be the worst in the series, and this is coming from a Saw fan. What makes these movies great is trying to connect the puzzle pieces as to 'who's behind all of this?' You know you the killer is within the first 10 minutes of the movie.

Chris Rock is a let down also. Give him props for stepping out of his comfort zone but man it looks like he just came out of his first acting lesson class.

Save your money, it's awful.

This movie had potential, but the writing was just awful. If you are looking for a nice plot twist, then us best watch the previous ones. Chris Rock made a valiant attempt, but fell short...by a long shot...and should stick to standup or comedies. The kills scenes were rather decent but were a little redundant with the design. Overall, the movie is hollow and falls right in line with the rest of 2020-2021 movies leaving us hungry for a quality product.

What was his big idea, just to be in it? He's easily the most obnoxious Saw character of all time. Traps sucked, b-movie gore was mediocre, for a thinking horror fan this feels feeble AF. If I were a producer, I'd be wishing I spent that budget on cocaine.

Zeke Banks (Chris Rock) is a reckless undercover cop. Twelve years earlier, he had brought down a dirty cop and became an outcast within the department. His father (Samuel L. Jackson) was his supervisor at the time. Captain Angie Garza (Marisol Nichols) is his present day boss and she forces him to partner up with rookie Detective William Schenk (Max Minghella). They're assigned a strange case of a dead body in the subway.

Chris Rock has been trying to act hard in a few roles recently. Some comedians can pull that off especially as they get older. All I think is that this is an unfunny Chris and it's weird. This is his acting face and it's fake. I try to image him without his past greatness and I can't do it. As for the movie, this is a lot of Saw essentials; overly complicated kills and morality lessons. The complicated tests are getting repetitive after almost two decades of Saw movies. I actually like the self-righteous morality in this one. The reveal is fine although it's somewhat expected coming from this franchise. Quite frankly, I wonder if this would be better if Sam Jackson takes the lead role.
