I'm still recovering from how bad Saw I was...

Rating: 4/10 (1 November 2005)

I ended up being pleasantly surprised with Saw II; it was a great deal better than I thought it was going to be, but that's still not saying much. The second installment in the Saw series had a lot going for it that its predecessor didn't: More gore and...well that's it really.
Beside the fact that we can see more it still fails to deliver in the acting department. For some reason the critics are focusing on how grotesque the violence is, but in actuality, they should be appalled by the grotesque acting. Aside from Tobin Bell and Glenn Plummer, the performances were laughable at best and painful at worst.
Oh...just like before, Saw II delivers a twist ending that seems forced and elaborately over the top.
