Verdict on In the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds

In the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds is a sequel to the fantasy adventure movie. It has no real connection to the previous movie. In this movie, we follow a soldier from modern times being transported to the kingdom to fight the latest battle.

This is a sequel that doesn’t seem to bring much to the table. It has the fantasy battles, without bringing enough new to the table. Or offer very much of the same. While Lundgren gets to have fun in the leading role, it ends up feeling flat throughout.

Final ThoughtsIn the Name of the King 2: Two Worlds is an uninspiring sequel.
