Review of Trancers II (1991) by David L — 18 Apr 2008
In my opinion, Trancers II is the best of all the Trancers sequels produced by Full Moon Entertainment.
The original is a cult classic. Its sequels could be considered mini-classics, although they're nowhere as good.
I like that with part 2, Full Moon decided to bring back most of the cast from the original, including Lena, Ashby, Old McNulty, McNulty, Commander Ruthie and even the main villain (Wardo) was assosiated with Whistler from Trancers I.
The best thing about Trancers II is Jack's two hot wives. The chemistry between the characters is interesting, as the future cop is caught up in the chaos following his late wife's unexpected return.
Quite campy dialogue and a wafer thin plot hamper it down quite a bit, but Full Moon have never been able to rebound any more with fine sequels or great movies in general. So yeah, enjoy Trancers II for what it is - an underrated sci-fi classic.
