Bad Bad Bad Bad...

Rating: 6/10 (19 June 2006)

After seeing the first movie, I was excited to see the sequel. After seeing it, I was disappointed. Really disappointed. I was expecting a lot more from it but I guess they are too scared to push the envelope.
This film is about Jigsaw locking a few unlucky people in a booby trapped shelter and they must find a way out before they inhale too much of a lethal nerve gas and die. But they must watch out, for the traps Jigsaw has set in the shelter lead to death also.
The beginning starts off good but it went downhill from there. The movie is weak. There are more people and more deaths but they're not good enough to make you happy. We don't care for some characters. We don't even care what happens to them. Then at the end, there's this twist. I heard the twist in IMDb before I watched this movie so maybe that's one reason I don't like this movie. Saw was such a great success that this sequel feels so sad, it shouldn't even be called a sequel.
The plot is repeated for this sequel.The score for this film is great like any other Saw films. The energy and suspense from the first film did not came back for the second. It's not thrilling, suspenseful, nor scary. Fortunatley, there are moments that makes you cringe including the needle pit scene. Saw was just a great crime thriller that this must be the opposite.
This is an OK movie. It's not that bad that I hate it. It was that I was expecting much more than just deaths and more people and twists. If you're a big fan of the original, this might disappoint you.
