My two cents...(possible spoilers)

Rating: Null/10 (11 November 2005)

When I watched Saw 2 I found a few problems with it. Overall it was an alright movie, I give it 6/10, however I did find the ending very good. I kind of knew this would be a "teen slasher" type movie and I was kinda right.
In the first Saw, it was so great because the main focus was on just two guys, and because most of the movie focuses on them, you got to learn lot about them both and see how the characters develop. In Saw 2 I barely know anything about the characters, one guy gets killed after he says about 3 lines. In the first Saw it was SO much more captivating, with both the story of the two guys in the room, the detectives on the outside world, and flashbacks, it created a bloody awesome movie, and thats why its my favorite.
Also in Saw 2, there were only about 3 cool deaths, the guy at the start,Obiin the furnace, and the chick with her wrists, the rest were either a guy killing another guy or something else.
Not enough happened in this movie, most of it was just the people trying to find a way out of the house. A lot of the time they were all intoxicated by the nerve gas and were stumbling around like idiots.
They should never have made this movie, the first Saw was brilliant in ever way and I give it 10/10, but making a sequel was poor especially with the simple idea of just having people in a house, getting killed in traps.
The fact that Saw was made by Leigh Whanell and James Wan, who are both Melbourne, Australia blokes, means a lot to me, as Melbourne is my home and to have such a damn awesome film come from them is awesome, especially with Australian talent just starting to emerge.
Saw 2 - basically not enough story line, not enough character development, not enough cool deaths and was not very scary in a psychological way, as was the first one.
Please give me your feedback on your opinions :)
