Movie Review: The End Of A Great Saga
Summary: 2 Stars
I will tell you right now this marks the end of the highlander movie series, This movie first came out via the internet as a torrent file as the russian cut leaked. Everyone saw this movie it was supposed to be originally released in theaters but the reviews were so bad that the producers were not going to take the risk of releasing it theaterically. So a couple months later the dutch cut of this movie premiered on the sci fi channel on september 15th. It was basically identical to the russian cut with very little editing. THe thing that hurt this film the most is its story line, Editing, quality, Dialogue, This film is missing so much. It makes the previous highlander movie Endgame look like a master piece. With that said i wouldnt recommend buying this unless your a die hard highlander fan like myself. If you are a new fan of the Highlander series i recommend only the first and third movie. Or the first and fourth movie and tv series/
Good Luck
Movie Review: I'm a fan, but this movie was a let down
Summary: 2 Stars
I hated the atmospehere as it opened. Reminded me of a bad attempt to used some of the stuff from a Terminator movie, or even Mad Max. There was no originality. I stuck through it and it just got worse. I enjoyed seeing Jim Byrnes as Joe, and of course Adrian Paul as Duncan and Methos...but after I waited years to see a sequel - the writing was bad for this movie. Endgame was a great movie, and so this one is dissapointing. I do like the end though. I wish they could have told us more about his wife - how they met, their life, their marriage, their troubles...seemed like it lacked character development. It's hard to vision Duncan separated from a 'wife'. I do hope they make another movie showing Duncan having a son, and make it more like the series Highlander and the movie Endgame. Then I'd go to the theatre and see it.Movie Review: Bad Film
Summary: 2 Stars
There is no nice way to say this...this is a bad movie. It's not even one of those that's so good it's bad, it's one that's so bad I actually have to own a copy so when people don't believe it's that bad, I can show it to them & we can then mourn the loss of those hours of our lives together.
The performers did what they could with what they were given, & the story line, while appearing dedicated to killing the franchise rather than rejuvenating it, is easy to follow. The direction and cinematography however...
The movie has the look and feel of a poorly shot mid to late 80's music video.
I have loved the Highlander franchise for years. This film is the worst of the worst of it.
Movie Review: Methos
Summary: 2 Stars
After hearing this was a straight-to-Scifi Channel movie I had my doubts. The only reason I continued watching after the first five minutes was because I knew Methos was in this movie and I would walk through fire, or sit through this movie, for that ROG! This could have gone in such a better direction if only the ridiculous special effects hadn't been thought of nor the idea to go futuristic b/c that worked so well for Highlander movies in the past... I really don't have any words to describe the epic failure this movie left with me and I blame Methos for making me watch it.Movie Review: Peter Wingfield in leather
Summary: 2 Stars
Ok, ok, ok, it's not the best movie ever made. Years of Highlander mythology is kicked to the curb, Adrian Paul acts like he has a bad case of constipation, and they kill a major character for no very good reason. But people, this move features Peter Wingfield In Leather!!!!
No movie which does this can be judged to be all bad.
