Highlander 2 - Renegade Version (The Director's Cut) description
Theatrically released in 1991 as Highlander II: The Quickening, this sequel was later reedited and gained a small but loyal following (prompting a spinoff TV series), but at the time of its release critic Roger Ebert called it "the most hilariously incomprehensible movie ... almost awesome in its badness." In other words, you might find some guilty pleasure in this chaotic sequel to 1986's Highlander, in which Christopher Lambert reprises his role as Connor MacLeod, a member of the alien race known as "Immortals," banished to Earth from his home planet Zeist some 500 years ago. In the year 1999, Lambert owns a corporation that has created a shield to protect the Earth following the depletion of the ozone layer. But the shield is seized by an evil cartel, and Virginia Madsen plays a scientist who assists MacLeod in his mission to destroy the cartel. Sean Connery also reprises his role from Highlander as the Scottish Immortal named Ramirez (?!), but by the time he starts engaging in dashing swordplay you may wonder if he's wandered in from another movie altogether. Highlander fans welcomed the laserdisc and DVD release of this "renegade" director's cut, which attempts to clarify the original version's confusing plot. --Jeff Shannon

Renegade Version or Special Edition?

I just bought a copy of the Renegade Version, having what I thought was the original cut of the movie in this Special Edition. I come to find, they're the exact same movies. At least, in the length of the movie. The only visual exceptions to either version is the coloration of special effects in the time travel sequences (the renegade version is purple; the special edition is blue) and the color of the Shield (red in the Renegade; blue in the Special). If anyone thought the Renegade version would give you a completely different story than the original (what I mean by original is a version in the last few years) they're probably the same thing and don't bother buying both. I've never seen the 1990 original and I hope I never do if it truely is worse. I was hoping this Director's Cut was going to save the Highlander sequel, but you're better off just skipping the movie entirely and continuing the Highlander saga with Highlander 3: The Final Dimension (the story line of which follows more closely to the original premise).
