* Often as a point of criticism, the trap plots of this movie and the previous one are parallels to each other. In this movie, the protagonist, Rigg, is tested by Jigsaw [[ChronicHeroSyndrome to show him that he shouldn't everyone]], while the protagonist in the previous movie, Jeff, he was tested for not getting over the grief over his son's death and letting it harm his relationships with his family and the victims he hesitated to save until it was too late.

* The Mausoleum Trap: Art’s mouth is sewn shut, rendering him mute, Trevor’s eyes are sewn shut, blinding him, and a tape recording or at least a video with Billy, isn’t played until the *end* of the trap. It’s [[ThreeWiseMonkeys “see no evil, hear no evil, and speak no evil”]]; that phrase has been associated with turning a blind eye on wrongdoing. Art is a corrupt lawyer who speaks to get his dirty clients out of jail time, Trevor must’ve turned a blind eye [[TheUnreveal towards something serious]], and nobody hears the tape from the madman who forced the two guys into this trap, at least until the end.
