This score has to be a little to the left of the normal distribution.

Since this series is touted as a classic, it should be viewed with the requirements of a classic, but from the first minute of the film to the end, there are unreasonable plots everywhere, it is more suitable as a negative teaching material, "How is a classic destroyed by a sequel?" dropped".

Eight people were trapped in a large secret room, known as poisonous gas. I was curious how the criminals kept the whole house airtight and airtight. When the door was smashed open, it was obvious that the outside was made of iron bars instead of steel plates, which meant that it was breathable. As long as it was facing the outside, it would be fine. Even if all the windows and doors are sealed with steel plates, the house of the American Emperor is not made of reinforced concrete. No one would have thought of breaking through the wall? Well, our clients were all too flustered to blame them. In the face of an incinerator, the basement is full of so many blunt metal weapons, and you only know how to wave a small dagger with your bare hands? Do you know that in a big house, you can't think of checking all the rooms first, so that the prostitute alone puts her hand in the trap, and two more? That son found out the photo and didn't put it away, and even threw it on the ground to show off to the muscular man? Isn't the muscular man just wanting to see the numbers on the back of people's heads, does it take so much effort to kill everyone? Also, muscular men have a good memory, 8 groups of numbers with color combinations, so you don't need to memorize them at a glance. Did you practice shorthand when you were a child?

On the side of the police, the useless and unbelievably stupid continued in the first episode. A serial killer who has killed at least ten people, the FBI doesn't intervene, and the Task Force doesn't work, just two detectives doing nothing? The female detective, known as a jigsaw expert, sat in the criminal's lair for an hour and a half, but she never thought to search the evidence. Her only thought was to let Eric destroy the evidence? File cabinets, drawings, documents, computers, safes, should you take a look first? The police did not follow the procedure at all, Eric could avoid suspicion, there was no negotiating expert, and the suspect could stay at the crime scene for two hours without being transferred to custody.

Let's talk about the protagonist Jigsaw, the magic is a bit too much. The key to the first act of the film is hidden behind the eyeball. As a former practitioner in the medical industry, I have to be impressed. This old man not only understands anesthesia and surgery, but also knows how to operate an X-ray machine, spanning three departments. The film did not explain John's background. Seeing this posture, he is proficient in medicine, mechanics, and electronics. He is very hard to grasp both theory and practice. In the first episode, John's choice was about redemption and understanding the meaning of life; in this episode, the seven people are strictly Eric's victims, and they have become pure killing for the sake of killing.

The last thing to complain about is the movie poster. The first episode is a foot. It is understandable, where are the two fingers of Saw2? Made me wait a long time.

I heard that the third episode mentioned the logic loopholes in the previous work, let's wait and see.

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.
