a a standalone movie highlander ii the quickening be definitely a bad one and with uninspired plot and ludicrous scene such a the one with the accelerate metro train and and pretty bad act performance . maybe not bad enough to become an unforgettable classic of bad film making and but certainly awful and ridiculous all the way . however and this movie deserve a special place in the realm of modern disaster in the film industry and because a a sequel it be absolutely abysmal and out of place and and an utter disgrace to the first one ( and to the whole series and which never recover after the atom bomb that this movie drop on the plot ) . this flick could well be a warning for any director who want to direct a sequel to any movie represent if youre not absolutely sure about what you be do and think again . this movie be so incoherent and induct so many plot inconsistency in the whole series that even the credibility of the first one come out irreparably damage . it put a truckload of trite sci fi element in what be just a fantasy story and it deny everything that happen before . literally . the first time i saw this i be totally puzzled and i almost couldn not believe it . a a standalone movie ( and if i felt like be generous ) and i would rate this a negative . but a a sequel and this get . negative .
