the sequel to david cronenberg remake of the fly be nowhere near a entertain . i felt like they put more thought into special effect than into storytelling . this time around and we be tell the story of martin brundle and son of seth ( jeff goldblum character from the 1986 film ) . while the first movie have heart to it and this one seem to lack it . it try to mimic the relationship from the first movie between seth and veronica and this time with daphne zuniga a martin love interest . unfortunately and it take a backseat to the fly transformation and gore effect . don not get me wrong and gore can be good . just not when it the centerpiece of the movie . it have be a while since i have last watched it and i have an easy time remember the elevator death than what the actual story be about . on the plus side the fly effect be impressive once again . the various puppet they use to bring the fly to life move fluidly and be more convincing . i do not really like how the fly look less human than it do in the first . that be what make it easy to feel for the character and remember that there be still the mind of a man deep in there . this time it look more monstrous . on the other hand and some of the other telepod mutation come out look too fake for me to believe . they be like puppet reject from sesame street for look too unfriendly . the act really get to me in this movie and and not in a good way . every character the movie want u to hate seem almost cartoonish . the scientist work with martin give me a dr. evil vibe and i half expect them to raise their pinky finger to their mouth and laugh maniacally . scorby and the head of security at bartok industry play by gary chalk and ooze with a hatred for martin from the very begin that the filmmaker never explain . we get some good performance from the main three actor represent stoltz and zuniga and and richardson . it isn not nearly enough to save the movie . if you be a fan of cronenberg fly and i almost recommend against watch this one . this movie be best watch with no expectation and except for that of a mildly entertaining horror flick with some good special effect .
