Darkman II: the Return of Durant
A disappointing sequel, but is there any other kind? Durant, the crime lord from the first movie, somehow survives a huge explotion and returns to the crime world. He starts to develope a new weapons and soon crosses Darkman's path, and all hell breaks loose. That is, if hell is really boreing and repetitive. This movie was kinda lackluster and there was nothing real exciting about it. Oh yeah, and I really hate it when they replace the lead actorin a series. Especially if the new actor has an accent and the original didn't. Skip it. 2 out of 5.
