 | Saw II - DVD By: Matt Paprocki - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 1/17/2007 2:24 AM | | As brutal as they come, along with a shocker ending. This is an incredible series. Saw II is loaded with cringe worthy deaths, masterminded by the insane "Jigsaw." Like any true horror film, it doesn't sell itself on the gore. It's the gripping plotline, constant guessing, and suspense that keep it moving....read the full review |

"[It] takes the lead with its smoother landing, which is again primed to blow the movie wide open, but manages a more compelling job of it than the original's cheat finish." -- Grade: B- 11/04/2005 p.51Sight and Sound
"As Jigsaw, Tobin Bell is unnerving as the film's cancer-ridden, albino-skinned puppeteer." 01/01/2006 p.71 Rolling Stone
"Tobin Bell makes Jigsaw, the clue-dropping killer, a classic." 11/30/2006 p.100 The Village Voice 7 of 10
Saw II represents Hollywood's latest calculus, not that different from the old math, which holds that the coveted teen audience can be bought for as little as a flimsy horror sequel or remake (House of Wax, The Fog) lacquered in a cast plucked from the WB...In the hackneyed role of the shady cop whose delinquent son is one of the captives, former NKOTBer Donnie Wahlberg is simply hypnotic. Though he shares his more talented younger brother's face and something of his runt charisma, in those pouched, sallow eyes the disappointment of living in Marky Mark's shadow flares. - Benjamin Strong
