Saw II (2005)

[Repo]

Jigsaw locks a few unlucky people in a booby trapped shelter and they must find a way out before they inhale too

much of a lethal nerve gas and die. But they must watch out, for the traps Jigsaw has set in the shelter lead to death also

I remember the first time I saw this in theaters, the twist absolutely knocked me on my ass. Even today, I think this was the pinnacle of the series.

[Repo]

1’s twist knocked me on my ass more, but both of 2’a are way up there. Eric is by far the best lead of the series, and seeing Amanda get a role upgrade is awesome too. John is interesting, and the series hasn’t gone off the rails with expecting us to like him on some level yet. Still firmly and unquestionable a villain.

House stuff is ripped from Cube, but still plenty entertaining with a couple of neat twists and moments. The traps are also awesome, and I liked the characters.

I’d say it’s my favorite overall. Got pretty much everything I want from a Saw movie.

I didn't like this at all on a rewatch, was so confused about why that I watched it twice to be sure LOL.
