| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Saw III |
The infamous killer Jigsaw is at it again. In Saw III a man's daughter is killed in a car crash. He is captured by Jigsaw and is forced through a series of tests in order to forgive those who were involved in the death of his daughter. As he goes to each test, he must choose whether the person lives or dies, it is up to him. As this is happening, Jigsaw is sick and dying. This will be his last chance to put someone through his twisted game.
