WHO WILL SURVIVE WHEN JIGSAW
RETURNS TO PLAY A GAME?
 
SAW II opens on Oct.28
While investigating the bloody aftermath of a grizzly murder, Detective Eric Mason has the feeling that it is the work of Jigsaw, the notorious killer who disappeared leaving a trail of bodies - and parts - behind. And Mason is right. Jigsaw is at work again. But instead of two people locked in a room with only one unthinkable way out, there are eight. Eight strangers -- unaware of their connection to each other -- forced to play out a game that challenges their wits and puts their lives in jeopardy. Jigsaw locks the unlucky people in a booby-trapped shelter where 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. The film stars Donnie Wahlberg, Glenn Plummer, Franky G, Beverley Mitchell, and Tobin Bell.

Reviews

Latest Review Additions:
  
Doom (in Film )
Doom is a far more accomplished film. Granted, my expectations were extremely low, but that doesn't take away from the fact that the filmmakers made a decent film.
North Country (in Film )
North Country is a gripping, emotionally packed stunner of a drama that easily contends as the best film of 2005.
Good Night and Good Luck (in Film )
Good Night, and Good Luck is a major artistic achievement by Clooney and easily one of the best films of 2005.
The Gospel (in Film )
While the script and editing are flawed, “The Gospel” is still an evening’s entertainment with heart and soul. If anything else, the music is what will drive you to come see this film.
Serenity (in Film )
Funny, intelligent, and filled with a lot of action, , 'Serenity", known as "Firefly" in TV land is as good as any sci-fi film ever brought to the big screen.
Two for the Money (in Film )
"Two For the Money" is a sucker's bet with a heart of gold. With Pacino acting without restraint, you can’t lose on this film.
Into the Blue (in Film )
The film is chock full of pretty, physically perfect people, but ultimately, the film ramps up and becomes a mindless yet engaging thriller if that is possible. 
Oliver Twist (in Film )
Polanksi's masterful touch is evident in every frame of this wonderful film. It is another grand achievement by one of film's greatest auteurs.
Roll Bounce (in Film )
Far from perfect, as there are several clichés within the film, and some of the characters go undeveloped, but overall, the film offers enough wit and charm that should please all that come to see it.
Flightplan (in Film )
You know what you're getting with Jodie Foster and Peter Sarsgaard, and they don't disappoint.
Racing Against The Clock (in Film )
A heartwarming documentary of women empowerment.
The Constant Gardener Review (in Film )
The Constant Gardner is an intellectual film with a purpose.  It is thoughtful and provocative, but not nearly the suspenseful thriller it’s made out to be.

The Man Review (in Film )
"The Man" is another black and white buddy movie where the jokes are flat and the talent is wasted.

Carlito's Way: Rise To Power Review (in Film )
If you're looking for a action packed, gunslinging gangsta this is not the film.
