Saw VI - 7/10
Better than V, maybe even a little better than IV even though I gave them the same rating.
The Saws so far:
Saw - 9/10
Saw II - 6/10
Saw III - 8/10
Saw IV - 7/10

M - 7/10
It's the 1931 Fritz Lang version, of course. A very intriguing film, with a great performance by Peter Lorre. He was a bit over-the-top in some areas, but in just the right way.
