Synopsis

Watch: Fletch Lives 1989 123movies, Full Movie Online – Ailing Los Angeles newspaper reporter Irvin “Fletch” Fletcher, in debt, inherits from a aunt “Bell Isle”, a sprawling 80-acre Louisiana plantation estate, quits his job and moves east expecting to live like a Dixie king. But he failed to inspect the run-down inheritance, leaving him only a shabby mansion with a shifty caretaker instead of reliable staff. Having celebrated anyway with an attractive lawyer in bed, he wakes up finding her mysteriously murdered and himself jailed, soon to be bailed, as prime suspect. Undaunted by a neighborly lawyer’s warning to leave town, he waves foxy real estate agent Becky Culpepper’s persistent offer well above the apparent value from a third party and starts snooping why with Becky. That proves a dangerous activity for him and almost anybody around, everything pointing to local magnate Hamilton “Ham” Johnson and his ‘Confederate’ circle of friends; including TV preacher Jimmy Lee Farnsworth and a dodgy chemical plant..
Plot: Fletch is a fish out of water in small-town Louisiana, where he’s checking out a tumbledown mansion he’s inherited. When a woman he flirts with turns up dead, he becomes a suspect and must find the killer and clear his name.

Reviews:

They should have adapted another one of the books…
This movie for me epitomizes the arrogance of Hollywood. The first Fletch movie was a hit, thanks in large part to the fact that it was a fairly faithful adaptation of the first book in the Fletch series by Gregory MacDonald. The book was a tightly woven, well-plotted mystery in which a smart character solved the crime by buffaloing less clued-in types. However, when time came to make a sequel, the studio decided that none of the other dozen or so Fletch novels would be suitable and Instead put together a generic comedy mystery with a plot right out of Scooby-Doo. This is dumbed down generic 80s action junk of the worst sort, partially saved by Chevy Chase’s deadpan use of the trademark Fletch trick of disguising himself and impersonating people to get information. To be fair, Chase and the writers manage a few genuine laughs with this, so the gimmick still works, but it’s in service of much inferior story, and this simply shouldn’t be. A hit book series produces an original hit movie, so why mess with something that works? Simply put, Hollywood studios are staffed by people who think they know better but don’t. A comedy-mystery, like any other hybrid, has to work effectively in both genres to be a success and the mystery plot line is just too weak to carry the film.

This movie for me was a special disappointment, as the Fletch series ended here, when Chase could easily have made a career out of starring as Fletch in adaptations of several books before Chase-as- Fletch wore out his welcome. It was a great fit of an actor to a role and should have gone on much longer.

One of Chevy Chase best !
When Gregory McDonald created the character I. M. Fletcher “Fletch”, he must have had Chevy Chase in mind. Both “Fletch Lives” and “Fletch” are perfect vehicles for Chevy’s brand of dry humor. Snappy dialogue and amusing disguises by Chase make these two Fletch movies, his best film work. If you like Chevy Chase you’ll love “Fletch Lives and “Fletch”.
