Revealing mistake: During the opening trap, at one point one of the five "Bucket Heads" starts banging on the wall behind them. If you look very closely, you can see the set-wall waver slightly as it's struck, revealing it's not really a concrete wall. (And it's not supposed to be the doorway that is later revealed during the final twist. It's a separate section of wall). (00:05:40)

The belated eighth installment of the "Saw" film series, "Jigsaw" is a bit of a conundrum in the overall franchise. It's arguably the most polished of the series, and it benefits from strong visuals and likable characters. But at the same time, it just feels like more of the same. As a fan, I was ultimately satisfied... but I wasn't wowed like I was with some of the earlier installments. It's a mostly solid sequel, and nothing more. 3 out of 5.

Trivia: Writers Josh Stolberg and Peter Goldfinger were big fans of the original seven films, and spent two years attempting to woo the producers into hiring them. Their passion and dedication is a big part of what got them the job.
Question: Why was Edgar asking for Halloran on the roof? Was that his game where he had to kill Halloran or trigger the remote?
Answer: Spoilers: As revealed at the end, Halloran is a crooked cop who has a past connection to Edgar. Edgar therefore wanted him there, since he presumably assumed Halloran could help him out of this jam. It's also possible that Edgar's tape instructed him to find Halloran, but we can't know this for certain, since it wasn't on-screen.
Suggested correction: No it's not the section that is a door, but that door does prove vital here. By showing the door, shows there is a section behind the wall. Meaning the wall we see is most likely a completely false wall and not the structural wall. With it being a false wall it is entire pleasurable that it could move.

When Jigsaw opens the door, you can see the walls are indeed solid and are at least 6-8 inches thick. Given the fact they appear to be made of concrete and run floor-to-ceiling, sorry... there's no way they are moving when someone bangs on them. Also, why would Jigsaw make a "false wall" that was so easy to move when someone hit it? He'd be setting himself up to possibly be caught. Sorry, but this particular correction is just too far-fetched. It's just a mistake.
