For starters, it became the best-rated film in the horror franchise.
With an impressive 85% critical approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
But this mark far surpasses the original film, directed by James Wan, which only had 50% approval. A notable difference!
Furthermore, the film achieved the highest audience approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Among all ten films in the Saw franchise, X reached 91%, surpassing 2017's Jigsaw, which boasted 89%.
Then directed by Kevin Greutert, known for his work on Saw VI and Saw: The Final Chapter, Saw X marks the return of sadistic protagonist Kramer, played by Tobin Bell.
A New Approach to Narrative
The story unfolds just a few weeks after the events of the first film, where Kramer is facing a terminal cancer diagnosis.
With his days numbered, he undergoes miraculous treatment in Mexico, which fans of the saga know is just an illusion.
When Kramer discovers the truth about the fake cure, he begins a new and brutal plan of revenge, enlisting the help of Amanda Young (Shawnee Smith), an iconic character who returns from the first film.
Conclusion
Saw X represents a triumphant twist on the Saw franchise.
With rave reviews and audience approval, it stands out as the best film in the series to date.
The unique approach to storytelling and the return of iconic characters captured fans' attention and enthusiasm, bringing new life to a franchise that seemed to have lost its way.
But with this surprising success, Saw X has fans excited for the future of the series and what else is to come.
