THE PHILADELPHIA EXPERIMENT 2 is a cheesy, TV movie-style follow up to the 1984 movie that features one returning character from that film, although his role has been recast. The story is updated to 1993, where another military experiment opens another hole in time, this time leading to an alternate reality in which the Nazis won the war.
The whole staging is what lets this cheesy, family-friendly film down. Aside from a typically fun Gerrit Graham in support, the cast is below par and distinctly underwhelming, particularly the bland lead, Brad Johnson, they've picked for the role. The film features similarly underwhelming CGI effects which look extremely dated to a modern viewer, and a plot that merely goes through the motions again rather than innovating. I found it a bore.
