Saw 2

Rating: 9/10 (8 May 2006)

Saw 2 is not your average horror film. Like its predecessor, you will not see teenagers having rampant sex and you won't be screaming at the screen "Don't go there, moron!" Saw 2, however, is also not all that scary in and of itself. It is a gory movie, which might scare some people, but where the fear comes into play with the Saw movies is that they are, ultimately, plausible. Unline many horror movies.
"Jigsaw" is back. The first scene of the movie is, in my opinion, more gory than the entirety of Saw. This time, Jigsaw gets caught early on in the movie, but that was his whole plan in the first place. The story that unravels is filled with twists and half truths, and what befalls a certain detective could have been averted by simply listening.
The ending is a bit obvious, but the plot is excellent.
