    • Trivia
      To conceal the ending, most of the actors were not given the last 25 pages of the script. Only the principal actors involved in the sequence knew.
    • Goofs
      (at around 9 mins) The message written on the ceiling ("Look closer, Detective Mathews") misspells Eric Matthews' surname.
    • Quotes

      John: Those who don't appreciate life do not deserve life.

      Eric Matthews: My son appreciates his life.

      John: But do you appreciate yours? Do you appreciate your son's?

    Its Very Violent and Gory,but Not as Scary,
    Saw 2 is a better than average movie with a promising storyline that just didn't turn out as good as it seemed.I did enjoy the dialog between Donnie Wahlberg and Tobin Bell,but the scenes with everyone stuck in the booty trapped room set up by Jigsaw was terrible,the dialog and acting was very mediocre and it mostly relied on gore.It is definitely more gory than the first Saw,a bit too gory for me,the way everyone is killed is just disgusting and graphic.The movie also wasn't as frightening as the first Saw and the story didn't have a build up as exciting as the original.I also didn't like how we didn't get to see much of the Jigsaw puppet and the direction isn't as dark (the director is different) as the first.Saw 2 is very gruesome,but its not very scary,if your a fan of the first you should still check it out,mainly because of Donnie Wahlberg and Tobin Bells impressive performances and a very unexpected twist,but you will be overall disappointed.

    The Jigsaw Killer has kidnapped the son of cop Eric Matthews.Jigsaw gets Eric to talk to him while his son and many others try to survive.
