Arguably the Best Saw Film

Rating: 10/10 (24 October 2008)

With it's psychological turn from it's predecessor, unique editing style, and fantastic script writing, not only may Saw II be the best Saw film ever, but it may also be the best horror film ever made.
The movie starts up showing off it's bigger budget and amazing editing, while at the same time introducing what the next sequels of the Saw series will follow which is a tense and gory trap leading up to a great storyline that will keep you locked in your seat for the rest of the film. Soon you meet Eric Matthews, an aging, stressed out detective who fathers a troubled teenager named Daniel. They are two of many intriguing characters who all have their own opinions on how they should live their lives.
Of course, Jigsaw's is the only opinion that matters. As the film moves on, your brought further and further in to his twisted head which helps you understand the reason he is what the press has named him.
Unlike the other Saw films, the acting is great and keeps the movie more realistic. The writers of Saw give the actors excellent lines and the director gives out the best direction, making the movie very, very well done, especially with it's arguably low budget.
Then the movie is topped off with the epitome of twists, which will leave your jaw dropped down to your feet. You might have to watch it a few times in order to understand it completely and due to it's excellence, this won't be a problem at all.
Saw II deserves every single one of the stars I'm giving it now.
10.0/10.0
A+
