Stevecorp Don't listen to the negative reviews

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

Smoreni Zmaj Movie has some really dull moments and its concentrated more on people panicking than on solving new puzzles and that disappointed me a little. At the other hand, it has some advantages to previous one. While in first movie Jigsaw appears just briefly, in second we have a chance to enjoy great performance of Tobin Bell. Twist at the end, that's maybe even better than in prequel, revels to us a puzzle more complex than last year's. Idea on which movie is based is better than one from previous movie, but realization is weaker. Overall, Saw II is somewhat weaker than its prequel, but still within solid eight.8/10

Gavinanimator This movie was way better than Saw I! You get to learn more about Jigsaw's character and why he does the things he does. The story is a lot more interesting and descriptive than in Saw I. There is also a lot more locations to get interested in! BTW, the ending was really well done!

SnoopyStyle Michael Marks is a prisoner of Jigsaw. He fails to dig into his own eye socket to find the key and the head trap closes killing him. Police detective Eric Matthews (Donnie Wahlberg) has rebellious estranged son Daniel who lives with his mother. Eric and Detective Allison Kerry (Dina Meyer) investigate another strange Jigsaw murder. They and the SWAT team track down John Kramer (Tobin Bell) at a booby-trapped warehouse. Kramer shows them a monitor with previous survivor Amanda Young (Shawnee Smith) and Daniel among others in a room at an unknown location where they are threatened with death by lethal gas. The group has to search for the hidden antidotes.The most appealing aspect of the original is the simplicity of two men locked in a room. There are plenty of asides but it is essentially about the two men. I miss that simplicity. Instead of a whole SWAT team, it would be more compelling to have only Eric finding John Kramer. They could face off directly mano-a-mano. There are some memorable kills but the movie does tilt over to campiness with the elaborate setups.

Rickting Saw II continues the tale of modern horror's greatest villain: Jigsaw. This time, 8 people are locked in a brutal test while a detective, the father to one of the victims, and the police try to save them. S2 is a rough, brutal ride. It has been treated unfairly by critics because of the bloodshed. That's just what it uses for scares. Some horror movies use jump scares. Some use tension. This uses violence and uses it reasonably well. It's not always enjoyable as it does get pretty unpleasant at times, but it is undeniably effective. Therefore, it's easy to write it off as a nasty gore-fest, but it counterbalances the gore with thought-provoking thematic material on morals, justice and how far one will go to save themselves. It's a nasty film, but it is effective. It's far from a perfect movie admittedly. The characters aside from Jigsaw and the main detective are weak, the drama is somewhat superficial, it's not as tense as the first one and things are a bit sillier this time. That being said, it's a watchable and reasonably thrilling horror film, although for many it will be a bit much. It's worth watching for all the twists and turns, as you will never see them coming.6/10
