Before his movie career completely tanked, Chevy Chase made one of the few films that gave him a chance to display his comic versatility: 1985's Fletch, the Michael Ritchie-directed comedy about an investigative reporter who specializes in going undercover on big stories. Lightning, however, didn't strike twice when Ritchie and Chase went back to Gregory MacDonald's novels for a second helping. This sequel features Chase once again as Fletch, super-reporter, who heads from L.A. to the South, where he supposedly has inherited an estate. Before long, he's become involved in a murder plot and is trying to stay out of the killer's sights himself. The material is considerably weaker, revealing Chase's shortcomings as an ad lib comic. --Marshall Fine

Rating:  - You know what they say about sequels
Luckily they avoid completely revisiting old ground by setting this one in the South. It contains quite a few gags but the laughs are fewer and far between. It has a more serious look at some time honoured cliches about the South (evangelism, racism, quaintness) which may be less fair as time goes on, but as they say cliches exist for a reason. Chevy Chase's swansong and the last passable effort of his career - unless you want to count Memoirs of an Invisible Man. Buy the double CD with Fletch or else skip this one.
Having said this, I have fond memories of this film. But don't expect high art. The comedy is passable and dry.
Rating:  - fletch rocks
fletch is such a great movie. Fletch lives was better. The product is great and came ahead of schedule.
Rating: - Fletch DOES Live
I bought this today and I do not regret it all. I watched it tonight and laughed out loud several times. His disguises are hilarious and all of the southern jokes and stereotypes are here. I'm from the south so watching all of the over the top stereotypes in this movie is a lot of fun. I think Chase does very good in this movie with his one-liners and sarcasm.
As with the first Fletch movie, there is a mystery as to who the antagonist is. That really doesn't matter in this movie because it is so funny throughout the rest of it. This may be Chase on the slight downside of his career, but it is still very good and very Chevy Chase.
Rating: - Fletch Lives DVD
My boyfriend asked for this for Christmas and it is definitely getting well-used...I think it's been played thirteen times in the last fourteen days. I guess you could say he really likes this movie...you'd think we didn't have cable or other DVDs it's gotten so much play.
Rating: - Fletch F. Fletch
While not quite as biting and fresh as the original Fletch movie, this is still vintage Chevy. New disguises, new aliases, and a big poke in the eye to the high dollar scandalous TV preachers of the 80's makes this a thoroughly entertaining watch. If you like Chevy, you can't miss this one.
