Fortress 2: Re-Entry
Locked in a prison orbiting 26,000 miles above Earth. Escape was never thought possible...until now.
In the not-so-distant future, Earth is controlled by a giant corporation called Men-Tel. After escaping from a maximum security prison known as The Fortress, renegade John Brennick (Christopher Lambert) and his wife and son are fugitives on the run. But Brennick is soon apprehended again and placed in a furturistic state-of-the-art maximum security prison recently completed by Men-Tel. Orbiting 26.000 miles from Earth, the prison houses the planet's most fierce criminals, forcing them to perform dreaded space labor amidst meteor showers and other harsh elements. Here, Brennick is locked down by hi-tech security jail cells and surrounded by an elaborate system of computer surveillance devices, including a camera placed inside his body. If Brennick ever wants to be re-united with his wife and son, he has no hope by to try to escape -- an idea that was never thought possible...until now!

Should have locked it up after the first one. - ChiPPy
I really enjoyed Fortress, it was one of Lambert's better movies, but this movie really sucks! A weak plot, let down further by poor acting. If you enjoyed the original, I would give this one a miss, and avoid disapointment. I'm just happy they didn't make a third movie, and ruin it further.NOT WORTH WATCHING - armchaircritic
This movie is a classic example of why Hollywood should NOT make sequels to cult classics.
This movie was made YEARS after the original in a vague attempt to cash in on original. The plot has so many holes in it you put a Mack truck through them. The acting was mediocre at best, with terrible dialogue. All in all, this is a movie best avoided.
