I havent watch se7en in a long time, (thx for reminding me, shld go rewatch it sometime soon), but as i recall, the endings thenselves reflects the quality of both movies. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « In Saw, the twist ending was surprising yes, but you couldnt care less about who jigsaw is/was. Personally, i didnt give a damn if Jigsaw was the guy lying there all the while or if he was George Bush, because the film didnt make me feel that it was all that important. A friend who watched it with me was gasping at that scene, but the rest of us went, "yeah so?" In se7en however, the twist was not so much of who the killer was, but how he made Pitt's character commit the last murder, and thus fulfilling the seven sins. Now that was shocking, twisted, and horrifying all at the same time, and it MOVED me. Emotion is the BIG difference between the two films.

And of course there is a need to compare, since good movies set the benchmark. If movie viewers, script writers, actors, directors, and critics do not compare, then we will just get more and more watered down crap aiming at nothing more than to make money at the box office. Oh wait......... This post has been edited by GhettoSuperstar: Apr 3 2007, 12:08 PM

Excellent movie, but im not sure how that compares to Saw and Se7en's genre. Not that i'll put both that movies in the same boat.
