Goign back to the subject at hand, here is my review of saw II
The original Saw was an excellent movie, the 2nd best of 2004. And for $1mil is was an amazing acheivement, so this sequal has alot to live up too & alot of hype going into seeing it. thankfully it dosent dissapoint.
The basic story is The "jigsaw" killer is still at large and has another game going, involving a house 6 "strangers" & a poison gas. And he is tormenting the lead cop (forgot his name, but played by Donnie Wahlberg) & his "partner" played by Dina Meya. His game isn't quite as sadisdic as before, but in the end, oh yes!!
Do not, i repeat DO NOT see this movie if your a woose, you will be pooing yourself frequently. Its a true horror, full of horrible deaths & one scene that IMO has the most horrific death i have ever seen on film, it was just URGH!
The lead cops played by Donnie (Mark's bro) Walhberg & Dina (Starship) Meya are very good actors. Donnie is very good at putting over emtion & Dina is well gorgeous! All the actors who are in the house are very good actors too, the only problem being that the characters in the house are extremely cliche'd. You have the good guy black guy, the complete idiot who's only out for no.1, the woosey girl & the *****y girl. Plus 2 others. Very cliche'd, but thats the only quarel.
The twists, well the end twist of the first film was superb & i never saw it coming, so again it's hard to think up something new. There are 2 main twists, 1 very obvious. The other, pure genious! Very well done.
This is a superb horror film. Ok it might have a few plot-holes if you dig away at it, but its so well done that if your like me and like to be drawn into a film you'll love it. Oh and one scene is truelly horrible!
8/10
