Not as good as the first.

Rating: 6/10 (16 November 2006)

I was terrified to death by the first movie and my expectations was huge for this movie when I entered the cinema. The beginning, I must admit, made me scream and then I was convinced that this movie would be a new step in horror genre, unfortunately I was wrong.
After the first horror scene it goes downhill for each minute. It was as if everyone in the movie was waiting for something to happen but it never came. Don't take me wrong, it is still Saw were talking about so there is a lot of blood but the physical part that actually made the original Saw scary is missing throughout the whole movie, making all the gore effects rather dull. Another problem is that the new characters lack depth and is very unlikeable. It didn't really matter if they all just dropped dead or not to me.
Overall its not a awful movie but compared to its prequel its unforgivable and I just hope Saw III resurrects the series.
