Los Angeles Times -
It makes clearer much that was so vague in the original; it even jokes about how confusing its premise is. In short, audiences who made the first film successful enough to warrant a second will be getting a bit more for their money.

Washington Post -
With its fancifully moldering sets and technical effects, Highlander 2 is little more than a barbarous arena, a Conanistic return to paganism for those among us who still laugh at violence.

Empire -
No plot, no real story, no point really.

IGN -
The problem is – the film plays more like a brainstorm exercise than a feature length film. There are gobs of great ideas here, but none of them connect in the way fans likely wanted.

Variety -
Audiences unfamiliar with the first film will be hard put to follow the action as it incoherently hops about in time and space.
