Quick Hit

Curse of the Fly either bites hard or fizzles out; this one lands comfortably above water. Not flawless, but it gets the job done.

Full Take

There’s a real hook here, but the follow-through decides the damage. It lives or dies on execution, not reputation, and that matters here. British genre discipline gives the film a cleaner shape than many of its pulp peers. The set pieces are what matter, and this one gets some mileage out of them. That’s enough to push it into SOLID.
