7.5/10.A slightly less good sequel.But however it still maintains a good pace with a decent story as Chevy Chase delivers another solid performance.He's capable of being funny with the right script.Here Fletch is in Louisiana dealing with sinister forces.Yes they play to Southern stereotypes but I can ignore them despite myself.Far as I'm concerned, Chevy Chase's career ended once he stopped doing Fletch movies.
Continuity mistake: When Fletch goes to visit Calculus in his shack, he knocks on the window and sees Calculus sitting in a chair, wearing boots. The next shot, as Fletch is walking inside, Calculus is now wearing socks and no boots, despite never having left the seated position, nor having had any time to slide his feet out of the boots. (00:35:55)
Hamilton "Ham" Johnson: So tragic when this happens to somebody so young and healthy. Was she feeling all right last night?
Fletch: She felt great to me.
Trivia: Chevy Chase has a scene with actor Geoffrey Lewis in this film. The same year, Chevy played Juliette Lewis' dad in Christmas vacation...who is Geoffrey's real life daughter.
