After Seth Brundle suffered a face worse than death (uh, mega death?), his son is born. Guess what happens. Here, I’ll give you a hint: it involves acidic fly vomit, gigantic and disgusting bugs, and lots of people dying. ...read the complete Fly II movie review at DVD Clinic ("Quigles")

DVD Talk (Ian Jane)
While The Fly II isn't nearly as good as the first movie, it still has its moments and Fox hasn't shunned the film in terms of presentation and extra features as this two disc set looks and sounds very nice and is stacked with supplements. Walas' film ...read the complete Fly II movie review at DVD Talk (Ian Jane)

It has some of the most graphic blood effects I’ve seen, including a head popping like a zit under and elevator and a man whose face is dissolved away in corrosive fly vomit. ...read the complete Fly II movie review at 7M Pictures (Kevin Carr)
The Tech (MIT) (Peter Parnassa)
THE PREMISE IS INTRIGUING enough: a movie about a "man-fly" growing up. Unfortunately, The Fly II has neither the wit nor the imagination of the film on which it is based. Director Chris Walas (who created the make-up effects for The Fly), seems ...read the complete Fly II movie review at The Tech (MIT) (Peter Parnassa)

Originality is running low in Hollywood these days - the parts IV and V ad infinitum are becoming bearable, but when they start making sequels to remakes it makes one think that enough is getting to be enough. The Fly II is ...read the complete Fly II movie review at SF, Horror and Fantasy Film Review
Q Network Film Desk (James Kendrick)
Near the middle of David Cronenberg's "The Fly," the main character, a brilliant scientist named Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum), declares, "You can't penetrate beyond society's sick, grave fear of the flesh." That statement essentially summarizes the ...read the complete Fly II movie review at Q Network Film Desk (James Kendrick)

ToxicUniverse.com (Daniel Briney)
In the end, The Fly II is a total loss. Cronenberg created a masterpiece of horror; Walas only proved that as a director, he's a pretty darn good creature artist. Indeed, the most horrifying thing about The Fly ...read the complete Fly II movie review at ToxicUniverse.com (Daniel Briney)
