Reviews for Highlander
Another example of a decent first film that led to a mediocre series. Great performances from Connery and Brown.

No equal among sword-and-sorcery flicks.

Lambert, with his beetle brow, broken nose, and vaguely crossed eyes, remains an amiable oddball presence, and Sean Connery radiates charm and nobility in a bit as an elder immortal who shows Lambert the rules of the game.

Lambert is likeable as the highlander of the title and the villain is quite memorable and steals the show.

This is a bad, bad movie that I really, really like. And I'm not embarrassed to say so.

A truly heroic stomp through time and space.

A terrific idea, taken about as far as it can go. Why, oh why, did they start making sequels?
01/22/03
It is a silly film, but it is fun to watch.
04/16/02
Highlander's plot is one of the most original ever filmed.
09/30/05
OK fantasy adventure film that has achieved cult status to many.

Great concept + sharp-edged weapons + Connery = enduring fantasy classic.
10/10/03
Connery, on the other hand, is a welcome sight. It is director Russell Mulcahy's style that doesn't work here.
