Sam KohnI'm 11 years old, I was told to watch this. I normally don't write reviews, but I have written because I am so traumatised by this movie. Everything about this movie is disgusting, the jaw being pulled off, the finger nails having goo out of them, and the vomit. Iโฆ

This movie taught me two important life lessons: 1. Buy duplicates of a single outfit so you donโt waste brainpower trying to decide what to wear. 2. Donโt drink and teleport.

this movie is one of the only movies that genuinely weirded me so out that I had to look away. for that reason I love it.
Morgan likedThe Flyi liked the creative ways that they showed his slow transformation, even from the beginning he was kinda fly-like, the monster and gore effects were insane but some of the characters were kinda terrible for no reason and some uncomfy moments, really good though!
Kareem likedThe FlyLmao why did her ex keep rolling his eyes like he was having an orgasm or smth while his leg was getting melted by the fly's white liquid thing ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ. I'll never look at shrimp the same way ever again after this. Just above meh.

Obihulk lovedThe FlyIn all honestly even past all the description, I never expected this film to be as Morbid as it turned out. The Prosthetics used for this film are extremely lifelike and impressive beyond compare. Jeff Goldblum puts on a Fascinating performance even under all that makeup. Cronenberg truly knockedโฆ

I really didnโt know what to expect with this. I thought it would be stupid gory fun but it was so much more than that. The practical effects are disgustingly great and as the transformation goes on it gets even nastier. The final form was crazy looking
Colin Williams lovedThe FlyAn entertaining and disturbing watch. One of the greatest monster movies of all time with almost no contest. Amazingly written with a simple yet perfectly done narrative. No less than a joyous and interesting watch time after time.
grace lovedThe Flythat was fuckedddd up but absolutely brilliant. the acting, pacing, the special effects and makeup were incredible!! scared the hell outta me but was also devastatingly tragic
Atom Users Reviews
Metacritic
In its galvanizing portrait of a body ravaged and sexual stasis infected by bugs, The Fly might be Cronenbergโs most direct horror film ever.
Eric Henderson
Slant Magazine
It's an interesting experiment Cronenberg's attempted, if ultimately in the wrong direction.
