Frequent flashbacks, equal parts soap opera and historical fashion show, explicate the complicated relationships between Kell, Faith and the MacLeods.

This is the last one in this long dead franchise...unless they do something stupid.

...do not under any circumstances rent this if you've never seen the Highlander TV series.

Thanks to its motley collection of story elements, settings, and acting styles, leaving this film is like getting off an amusement park ride you never wanted on in the first place.

Highlander: Endgame looks sensational, moves like lightning. But its script (by Joel Soisson) makes no pretense about being logical or even comprehensible.

Highlander: Endgame is truer to the original than the sequels, but it plays more like a television program than a theatrical release, which will matter little to the die-hard fans.

Och, lads and lassies, on the souls of our shape-shifting Gaelic forebears, do not enter unwarned into that dark cave of confusion known as Highlander: Endgame.

The special effects are cheap and not at all impressive. For a series that relies heavily on sword fighting, it too is surprisingly second-rate.

Judging by what writer Joel Soisson has come up with here, the franchise is already dead in the water.

The dialogue is cheesy, and the story's decapitated long before any character's noggin goes flyin'.

It quickly goes astray with fight scenes laden with too many bullets, too many explosions, too many sparks, lightning bolts and weird lights -- and too many impalings.

Personally, I enjoyed it about the way I enjoyed the Mortal Kombat movies, meaning that its genuine fun and its unintentionally ridiculous moments are roughly in balance.

The fourth sequel to a film designed to stand alone... In the end, there should have been only one.

Perhaps Highlander: Endgame may emerge as a cult movie -- one of those movies that is so bad, it's good. But for it to register in that way, you probably have to see it more than once. Which is a risk.
