Movie Reviews of Highlander 2 - Special Edition
Movie Review: BRING BACK PLANET ZEIST!
Summary: 5 Stars
Ok, so I know that will never happen. H2 seems to make more sense with the idea of Immortals coming from another planet. Since they have reworked this movie to edit out the planet, things really don't sync up anymore. For instance, they are claiming now that the immortals are teleported from a distant past to fight in more modern times....Ok then why transport them to the year 1500??...That doesn't seem like modern times to me...and further more, the weapons they have in the distant past are better than the weapons they have in modern times.
Like I said, the movie doesn't sync up. You need the planet Zeist back in this version.
All that aside, this DVD is worth the money for the features alone. If you are a highlander than you need this version for all the interviews with the writers and actors. The feature "seduced by argentina" is probably worth it alone for this movie. Listening to the writers will give you a new respect for H2. You will see that there was a spirit of a good sequel. Because of money, H2 was destined to fail. If this movie was actually finished, and edited by the writers and directors and now some outside party, Highlander as we know it would be a totally different universe.
Also, Sound, and new graphics make the movie a lot more pleasing to the eye.
If you're into Sci-fi and love Highlander, you'll dig this movie. I think the best thing about Highlander is it's like a choose your own adventure story. You the viewer have the ability to make out whatever outcome to the Highlander saga with the various sequels that have come out.
