The Deadly Art of Illusion

Overview

F/X man Rollie Tyler is now a toymaker. Mike, the ex-husband of his girlfriend Kim, is a cop. He asks Rollie to help catch a killer. The operation goes well until some unknown man kills both the killer and Mike. Mike's boss, Silak says it was the killer who killed Mike but Rollie knows it wasn't. Obviously, Silak is involved with Mike's death, so he calls on Leo McCarthy, the cop from the last movie, who is now a P.I., for help and they discover it's not just Silak they have to worry about.

A review by JPV852
Written by JPV852 on 2022-01-31
Not as good as the first but still plenty of fun elements and liked seeing Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy working together (we only get a glimpse at the end of the first film). Nothing special and not exactly a necessary sequel (kind of like Another 48 HRS and Another Stakeout) but still worth a watch. **3.0/5**
