Very disappointing sequel to the excellent "Saw"

Rating: 5/10 (2 November 2005)

This movie could have been wonderful. A house with lots of traps and some potentially interesting characters. But what did we get? A house with lots of traps but we hardly see many of them and many characters, yes, but most of them have the depth of a saucer.
The sequel was very disappointing. The character development that made "Saw" was missing and this fault really sabotaged the film. We didn't see enough of the traps and puzzles. In the end, all that we saw was the characters stumbling about the house and not doing very much-a bit frustrating when we consider what they could have been doing! Trying to solve and complete the game.
In conclusion, this film was a wasted opportunity and if a sequel does go ahead then I hope they make it a lot better than this film.
