I watched the first one at home on a rented DVD and thought it was the most gruesome but gripping scary film i'd ever seen (and i've seen plenty!!) so goodness knows why i chose to go to the cinema for the second one!! I was terrified from beginning to end because what an opening scene and did not see the twist coming at all and I'm usually quite good at guessing the endings of films!! Who thinks up the kind of deaths in these films???...Yuk!! They must not be able to sleep at night because i know i couldn't for about a week after watching it! I would recommend this film highly to anyone who likes a good gruesome horror but with mind games keeping you guessing right to the end!!

I really liked the first SAW movie and decided to rent out the 2nd on DVD.I wasn't disappointed with the sequel at all.I liked this movie better than SAW 1.In fact it is one of the best sequels ever made.This movie was much more scarier,violent,brutal and gorier than the first one ( I'm very sure that they are going to get more violent by each one). It had some many memorable scenes such as the pit of syringes and a helmet that slams shut around someone's head.It is one of the most interesting and original horror movies ever made.It is very intense throughout the movie.I am already looking forward to seeing SAW III when I get the chance to see it.The acting was really good and had improved from the first movie vastly.

after seeing the first one i couldn't wait to see this movie, though this movie isn't as good as the first one its still on its own. Tobin Bell was just as awesome as in the first one, Shawnee Smith exceeded my expectations, Donnie Wahlberg wasn't exactly award winning but he wasn't necessarily bad either, Erik Knudsen was pretty good as well, also another notable actor is Franky G who meanly good. this movie wasn't as scary as the first but was more grisly which made it more disturbing, also i still love the unfolding music at the end. if your a fan of the first one then i recommend this movie to you, and thats why i give 8/10.

Saw 2 revolves around a "not-so-straight-and-narrow" cop who gets involved with the serial killer Jigsaw's latest game of horrible torture and death. Saw 2 tries to do things a little differently than the first film. Saw 2 has a house full of teens (or near teens) locked up in a spooky house where one by one - they meet an unfortunate death (a la traditional slasher film) but all done in the style of the "Saw" franchises death traps. Although there are some nice plot twists (in the original Saw's style) - possibly the final twist (who the killer is) is a bit half-baked and unbelievable. The references however to the first film are quite ingenious (where the final scene takes place)... The acting (like the first Saw) can be a little half-baked too and some of the "death traps" aren't so ingenious as the first (eg: instead of a reverse-facial-beartrap we get a spiky-mask...). Overall - OK masochistic fun if this is your cup of tea... 6 out of 10

Saw 2 was alright, but it's not better than the first one, James Wan, didn't direct the sequel, but at least he produced it. Some are alright with jumpscares, some are not.

Like many others I was riveted by the original Saw from start to finish.The hallmarks of gore, sadism, horror, innovation and tight storytelling are back with a vengeance, although the physical setting lacks some credibility, this is more than compensated for by another ripping yarn. It is difficult to believe that the Director, Darren Bousman, is only 27 years old. My only concern is that he should have the courage to walk away after the forthcoming Saw 3 to develop his talents outside of this stunning formula, and not become bogged down by it. There are not many films which have me closing my eyes and recoiling in revulsion whilst still being compelled to watch. This is such a film. Like Final Destination on heavy drugs Bousman finds ever more ingenious ways to kill and maim people, whilst just teetering on the right side of entertainment The denouement cleverly leaves the door ajar for Saw 3, I cannot wait!
