The Jigsaw Killer Strikes Again!

Rating: 10/10 (9 January 2006)

If you enjoyed Saw, I have a feeling you will enjoy Saw 2. After watching both movies on the theater screen, it was hard to judge which one is best. After all, when you watch the first movie of any series, the story is new and therefore less predictable than when it is developed into a sequel, but I think I've finally decided that the second movie is the best, mostly because there is a lot of movement. Though the confinement in the first movie creates an interesting tension in the theater, the second one creates an overwhelming sensation as you watch the characters travel from room to room. I also like the idea of putting a whole group of characters together in such a creepy situation. The expectation is that they will work together to get out, but this movie shows you how members of a group against each other when their lives are at stake. I also like how viewers are presented with the idea that a group of people who seem very different can have more in common than they realize face to face. The twists in this movie are great! I hope a third movie can be developed from this storyline.
