To me, this movie is perfection.

Save your money for something good and enjoyable

Admirable film.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Fortress 2: Re-Entry is actually a good sequel, it's nice to see Chirstopher Lambert playing as John Brennick again. The violence from the first film isn't in this one as much but it's still there in parts.The idea of having a Fortress in space than underground was clever and adds something new. The prison director isn't as sinister as Poe in the first film but he is good.The special effects were OK and the prison looked good. Another interesting thing was instead of having a device that causes pain in the body we have a camera that allows the prison director to monitor them and stop them from escaping. But for John and a few other prisoners they can out smart this device and use a way to escape. Fortress 2 is a good sequel and sci-fi movie.

Well, lets be honest here, the first Fortress movie was nothing too special even though it was directed by Stuart Gordon and featured some excellent cheese filled moments. You may think that the craptacular enjoyment provided by the first movie would translate over to the lower budgeted, even more b sequel.Sadly I was totally wrong with this assumption.Things just happen in this movie... There's really no effort by the script or director to give us any characterization. We're stuck with " Brennick is in prison, now he must bust out " as soon as the movie starts.There's plot holes galore, stupid scenes, and some terrible special FX.Lambert must have been really hungry for the fifty or so grand he was paid to do this train wreck.I'm a fan of cheeseball, low budget films... But they have to at least be entertaining in some form or another to be enjoyable to me. There are a few moments like that found in this film, but unless you want to see how NOT to make a movie, don't bother with this one.1 out of 5.

I think most people who regularly watch movies will be somewhat familiar with the (unofficial) genre of the "good bad film"; movies so bad, it makes them actually quite entertaining to watch for reasons entirely different from the intentions of the people who made them. I find it somewhat hard to determine though, whether or not I can consider "Fortress II" to be such a movie.Sure, all the ingredients for an unintentionally funny film are there: ludicrous script, bad acting, lousy effects, laughable dialogue and a gross neglect of even the most basic laws of physics (where did this space station's gravity come from, again?). Fortress II goes flat on its face at every turn which, in theory, should make it a blast. But for some reason I felt somewhat embarrassed rather than really amused while watching it.I still can't really tell for sure why I didn't like this film, even as a parody of itself. Maybe the actors just seemed a little too desperate as they struggled to "look cool" despite the meager story and amateurish dialogue, which actually made me feel a little bit sorry for them. Or perhaps it was because it was a bad film, but perhaps just not blatantly bad enough to be really, really funny. Or perhaps the problem was just simply the fact that it was broadcast on a Wednesday night in the middle of a working week, so my mind was still mostly on work-related issues. But whatever the reason, I didn't really enjoy this film in any way. I didn't think it was all that funny and I just can't possibly make myself think of it as a serious sci-fi/action flick either. All in all, I could advise you to perhaps take a look at this film when the chance happens to present itself (read: some network uses it as schedule filler while there's nothing else on). Maybe you'll be better able than I was, to appreciate the undeniable potential for unintentional comedy in this scholarly example of how not to make a movie. But under no circumstance waste your time and/or money purposely looking for it, buying it, renting it or even downloading it. Not even if you did like the first "Fortress". It's just not worth your trouble, not as a worthy sequel to the actually quite bearable first "Fortress" and not even as a "Plan 9 from Outer Space"-like dud.

Well well well, words simply can't describe just how s**t this film really is. tragic? hold on, i need a thesaurus. appalling, awful, bad, calamitous, dire, dreadful, grim, lamentable, painful, pathetic, pitiful, terrible, wretched.... and that's just a few. I totally didn't understand how they used the retarded guy to gain entry into the office. he remembered the tones of the numbers pressed, but surely a secure system would only have one tone for every key, it ain't no bloody telephone. some funny bits with the computer annoyingly naive computer system. and the nudity, well it always helps. and the stereotypical funny black dude who always swears was kinda funny, but that's only cos i like those kind of characters. and the bit with the cockroach going into the office, oh my... to think that woman was in jackie brown.....like the previous comment, she needs a new agent, not only a chat with her current one.one of those films worth seeing because it is just so bad!!!
