Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Finally on DVD, thank God!
Review: It's hard for me to pick a favorite between this one and the first. I don't understand anyone who says this was was considerably weaker. Most people I talk to like this one better! This is one of the ones I've been waiting for since I bought my DVD player!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Where's The DVD
Review: Love this movie. Chevy is great. I have been waiting for the DVD forever. C'mon Universal! This movie is awesome.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perhaps beter than the hilarious original
Review: My best friend and I are probably the biggest fans of Fletch in the entire world, and often argue which of the two movies is the best. I personally love the sequel, especiialy the scenes with the Klu Klux Klan and the Harley Davidson biker bar. If you've seen it, you know what I'm talking about. If not, definately order it. Fletch lives is Chevy Chase at his zany best and is without a doubt one of the funniest comedies of all time

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Main Problem - Not based on an actual fletch book!
Review: Not based on an actual fletch book. funny at parts - especially the second tim

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: The epitomy of a sequel. It's not as good as the original.
Review: Prison Inmate: Take your pants off. Fletch: I don't even know your name? Prison Inmate: Bend Over. Fletch: Ben? Nice to meet you, I'm Victor Hugo.

Fletch Lives has it's moments, but the spunk and hilarity of Fletch is gone. Chevy just seems a bit bored with this one and the script is just not appealing overall. Chevy saves most of the movie with his occasional one liners but I can't say this one is worth owning. But if you're a Chevy Chase fan, you might as well enjoy what it offers.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: More Fletch but Less Script.
Review: This is a fun movie if you a)love Fletch; b) love Chevy Chase; and c) use the dull moments to use the restroom and replenish your snacks. Fletch fans will love the new characters that reporter Irwin F. Fletcher creates for his new setting. The basic story line is interesting and the cast features a ton of talent and well known actors. However, it moves a little slow and doesn't grab your attention like the original.

On what seems like as stroke of luck, Fletch ends up inheriting a mansion in Louisiana and quits his job to settle in. Things don't turn out as expected and Fletch turns to his investigative reporter tactics to get to the bottom of it.

Put it this way, if you've seen Fletch and can recite every line of the movie (like me and a half dozen of my closest friends), you will want to see this one, too. You will probably like it after having seen it a few times. But if you're new to Fletch or Chevy Chase, stick with the first Fletch movie, the first Vacation movie, the first Caddyshack movie (notice a trend here?), Three Amigos!, Spies Like Us, Funny Farm, The Groove Tube, Foul Play and reruns of Saturday Night Live from the 70s

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Beyond Hilarious!
Review: This was so funny that when my father watched it, he made noises I'd never heard him make before because he was laughing so hard...That combined with the movie made my stomach cramp up and I thought it was going into a ceasure!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Amother Excellent Chevy Chase Movie!
Review: This, to me, is by far much funnier than the first Fletch movie. Irwin Fletcher, investigative reporter, is back in the sequel to the original film, 'Fletch'. This time, he's quitting his job as a distant relative has died and left him a mansion. He arrives to find he's in the middle of murder plots and dodging bullets.

Chase dons lots of disguises in this film, as he did in the first, but these disguises are more numerous, and funnier than before. There is some adult humor, as is the norm with Chevy Chase movies, but not a lot of it. This is a must have for Chase fans, or comedy fans in general.
