SAW II brings Jigsaw back with a VENGEANCE!!
Sequels usually don't live up to their originals, but SAW II does that and more...
Jigsaw is BACK, so is the Music and the Mood. SAW II still offers the Jigsaw factor and the whole "Live or Die" complex that he brings, but it has a completely different feel to it.
Instead of two captives there are eight, all trying to find their way out of a deserted building. Jigsaw has set up quite a gauntlet of gruesome tests to see which captives deserve to live and which are better off dead.
Due to a larger budget, SAW II has more effects, more gruesome death sequences, a better set, and a larger cast of actors and actresses.
SAW II is more action packed than SAW I and less suspenseful, but that doesn't make it any worse than SAW I. I love the way SAW II is presented, and that it isn't the same format as SAW I.
One thing to keep in mind, this is an R-Rated movie for a reason, and if you thought the first SAE was gruesome, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Final Verdict:
5/5
Rent or Buy?: Definately BUY!!! I would've given it a 6/5 like I did SAW I, because it is that GOOD. But I felt that SAW I being the innovator deserved the extra rating point.
On a side note, make sure you watch SAW I before watching SAW II.
