SAW II (Fear Room 2)...

According to convention, whether local or overseas, the sequels of recent films are not expected to be well received, especially after the unexpected big sales of the first episode, most of its siblings or consecutive brothers and sisters are "geeks" "Don't look at it!
And I have often said recently that all filmmakers are "dry pond", and the above-mentioned sequel is one of the tricks, followed by adaptation and remake. It can be said that there are so many people who have a sense of freshness and can impress the audience, and they have to take into account market needs and box office. Is it really high? The seniors in the film industry did not dare to try, and the opportunity fell into the hands of some newcomers.

James Wan, the director of the last episode of "SAW", was the first director to direct the film and succeeded in making a high-quality film at a low cost. Of course, it is not that simple for him to gain both fame and fortune. He said, "No resources are his source of inspiration." In this episode, the film company once again used new director Darren Bousman, which can be regarded as a new surprise for the "SAW" series.

Audiences who have watched "SAW" may be able to feel that the selling point of this film series is not actually the bloody violence, but the closely related plot and the deep meaning that is worth reflecting on. Did that claustrophobic room terrify you, or did you also agree with what Jig-Saw did? The idea that a patient like Jig-Saw is entitled to exercise his own set of extreme truths.
Although, the murder scene of the victim, various agencies and most of the suspects are somewhat familiar, and the contrast with the previous episode is not big. At the beginning of the big house, I thought that there would be a plot of "Battle Royale" in the old land, because a contestant who had participated in the competition and won the competition came back again, and the other victims bore the brunt of this. on the athlete. The process of the middle part is of course inconvenient to disclose now, but in the story, the two same relationships fall into different situations. Who is the angel, who is the devil, and who is leading others by the nose? And in other words, the murderer was benevolent?

And what surprised me about the ending was that everything was laid out so that I could only trust my own eyes, because the editing in the film seemed to mislead the audience (at least me), of course, until that appliance appeared, and now I understand why the retired demolition team members in "SPEED" were so angry, and the authorities were as stupid as fans.

Finally, a pre-paved back road was also blatantly placed in front of the audience, "I will shoot the third episode~", and sure enough, it has been announced on the Internet, "SAW III" will be released on Halloween in 2006, I hope it will be there This sacred trilogy has a happy ending.

Saw II quotes

  • John: Some people are so ungrateful to be alive, but not you... not anymore.

  • John: Hello, Xavier, I want to play a game. It's similar to the game you play as a drug dealer, the game of giving hope to the desperate. I think we can agree that your situation is desperate, so I'm going to offer you hope. By entering this room, you have started a timer on the door in front of you. When the timer runs out the door will be locked forever, locking away the antidote inside it. If you want to find the key, you will have to crawl through the same squalor that your customers have. I'll give you one hint where to find it.

    [Xavier and Daniel move a bed frame, revealing a pit full of hypodermic syringes beneath]

    John: It will be like finding a needle in a haystack.
