Starring: Tobin Bell, Donnie WahlbergDirected by: Darren Lynn Bousman
** Stars
After last years Halloween hit Saw, Hollywood created its sequel Saw II, which totally lacks the horror and plot we saw in the first one.
Tobin Bell is back playing Jigsaw, a menace that finds ways for his victims to kill themselves. When police detective Eric Matthews (Wahlberg) finds out that his son is missing and that Jigsaw might have a clue to where he is, things begin to heat up.
The director decided to go with the "bad father at first but finds out his son is missing so then he becomes the hero" scenario. For the love of god just stop.
Eric learns that his son is being held hostage in a room with several other people. The room is filled with a poison and the antidote is in a safe in the middle of the room. They must work together to solve the puzzle.
For about an hour of this movie, it's just screaming and yelling at each other. Where's the story? Where's the plot? The movie sets itself up for a twist so idiotic and so horrid, that it has no business being in the movie. Saw II is a huge disappointment.
