Author Topic: Saw 2 (2005) Richard Greco Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1180 From: Plant City, FL Registered: Nov 2003 posted 10-29-2005 03:16 AM                     Woah!!! This sequel started a little slow, but once it got going....DAMN!!! All I gotta say is there is a wild twist near the end that will BLOW YOUR MIND from the first one. Absolutely AWESOME for a sequel. Movie 4/5 Twist at the end 5/5 Absolutely cool movie.  |  IP: Logged Michael Gonzalez Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 790 From: Grand Island , NE USA Registered: Sep 2000 posted 10-29-2005 07:14 PM                     I actually didnt see the first one but always meant to catch it sometime on DVD. I didnt really care too much about seeing this one going in but I was pleasently suprised. For a horror movie it was pretty good. I would say 4 1/2 out of 5 stars for a horror genre and maybe 2 1/2 out of 5 for a regular movie rating.  |  IP: Logged Lyle Romer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1400 From: Davie, FL, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 10-30-2005 11:02 PM                     On it's own, this was a very good movie. Compared to the first one, it was a little dissapointing. It just didn't have the edge and constant tension that the original had. I think it was a result of the higher budget that there were too many characters. It was entertaining and had some good twists to keep you off guard. I guess it'll be "Saw 3" coming in October 2006! 2 3/4 out of 5  |  IP: Logged William Leland III Master Film Handler Posts: 336 From: Charleston, SC, Registered: Aug 2002 posted 11-02-2005 09:34 AM                        6 beers out of a 12 pack pretty good considering the first SAW was really good. i didn't really care for all the type cast characters. the big bully, the calm older man, the pretty blond girl, the slut girl, the little kid, the scary hood looking guy and the druggie girl. i was hoping for all the charactes to be killed. the tag line is "there will be blood" well they coverd their ass because the blood is everywhere. the best part of the move is the old man "jigsaw" talking. they explain more qabout him and why he does this. there is a suprise but if u SAW 1 (pun intended), there should be no suprise.  |  IP: Logged
