Plenty of double crosses and a conspiracy that leads to a fortune. Him running for his life only this time while also trying to protect his girlfriend and her son. Him getting blamed for something gone wrong. The character of Rollie would be sucked in again to working freelance for law enforcement. Even the storyline is kind of moronic as it is hard to believe that after what happened in the original. The right hand man/Hitman is rather generic. While entertaining there is nothing too memorable about the look, Direction or plot of the film. I am a fan I fin his good looking charismatic and funny. Who sadly after this really went on to nothing.
Fx2 the deadly art of illusion 1991 movie#
One of the sad things about seeing this movie is seeing Bryan Brown a good actor and leading man. One of the true joy of the sequel is the chemistry between Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy. Those effects felt more personal and artistic like hard work really went into it. Watching this film now makes me at least nostalgic for simpler times when effects were more robotics, make-up and illusion based. So they came up with a way for the character to be lured into the same sort of circumstances from the first film this time only a few different details and not as nihilistic. Studios figured there was more money to be made. I remember really looking forward to seeing this film as I was a fan of the first film. They get more impressive and distinguished.
The aging of the film is to be expected as special effects and technology grow older. The film seems dated, but still impressive considering the time period it was done. While this is more fast paced then the original.

Mike's boss, Silak says it was the killer who killed Mike but Rollie knows it wasn't. The operation goes well until some unknown man kills both the killer and Mike.
