Even if you never saw the first Highlander, The Quickening will leave you as blind sided as Norman Rockwell in a Picasso exhibit. The story wanders in weird directions, taking the characters with it. The mind boggles. Subways can travel at 400 mph. Corporate executives pack heat.
Trunks are bulletproof.
The oldest men's shop in Scotland takes earrings instead of money. Katanas are magic. Shakespearean crowds are pretty jaded. Immortals have indestructible clothes. Theater prop swords can stand up to a real sword.
