In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

I am very sensible to animals and i could not watch this movie after the dog scene, such a beautiful loving dog who was all dis formed after they tested the transport machine on him.I purchased the movie on blue ray, transferred it to my PC, then edited it with some software, remove the dog scene and it makes for one incredible movie now.

I can't in good conscious call The Fly II a good film. It's just not. Gone are the memorable characters realized by strong performances and intelligent writing that touched on rich ideas. Gone, effectively, is the humanity.But with Cronenberg, Davis and Goldblum all gone, that's to be expected, isn't it? And as far as cheap cash grabs go, The Fly II is watchable. Strip away all the things I mentioned in the first paragraph and what are we left with? Well, the director of this film did the remarkable special effects on Cronenberg's film, and naturally those are in equally fine form here. And though the central love story here is wooden as hell, there's a subplot involving a mutant dog I thought was surprisingly touching.I went into this simply hoping for a fun, sort of trashy 80's b-movie, and those were appropriate expectations to have. The acting is dumb and dialogue is obvious in a sort of charming way.Unfortunately, what holds the movie back from excelling on it's own meager terms is that it repeats too many plot points from the first film, when it should be distancing itself from it a bit more.If you are in the right mood for it, though, it's a perfectly acceptable, not-boring, joyfully disgusting way to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon.

Critics and most members of the public that saw this sequel when it first came out trashed it. Is it as bad as its reputation suggests? Well, although I don't think it's a very good movie - especially when compared to the more thoughtful original movie - it's a little better than you may have heard.Certainly, it has some severe flaws. The main problem with the movie is that for the first hour or so of the running time, it feels REALLY slow and drawn out. Yes, the original movie wasn't rapid paced, but more things were unfolding in its narrative. Although I wasn't really bored, I was impatient enough to keep telling the movie to just get on with it.After the first hour has passed, things start to get moving. The next twenty or so minutes are okay, and then the remaining twenty or so minutes are kind of fun, with monster action and some impressive gory special effects. Had this gory spirit been with the first eighty minutes, we might have had a dopey but fun spatterfest. But as it is, the movie for the most part is unsatisfying. There are some good ingredients, but something went wrong cooking the entire package up.

fly one and two show" pain of childbirth" which is a science fiction lie and medical invention Orgasmic birth and peaceful or kneeling in water and standing.pain is caused by drugs and on the back legs curled which closes pelvis. one good cry of fear after would do.it should have been easier for her to drop the oblong larva. Davis gave on good long cry with one expression through the first film. no thought went into that flies are all female, and Davis would pick up on those traits too. she would have mutated and had easier birth.Davis went from supportive character to prop. We have a cast of nobodies or barely recognizable to replace them in the second.she should have given herself an abortion, and writers abort fly2, the script thrown out before actors were auditioned.
