Review of Highlander: Endgame (2000) by James C — 12 Feb 2013
After an explosion rips his antique store apart, Connor reunites with Duncan to face an Immortal more powerful than any they have fought before.
The Highlander universe just keeps getting more and more convoluted (and confusing) with each new entry!!! With the events of this installment we can pretty much disregard the end of "Highlander" and the entirety of "Highlander II"!!!! I think it would also help immensly if you have watched all the episodes of the TV series (which I have not), as characters turn up with no explanation that must have appeared there. Christopher Lambert plays his role with his own special 'flare', and Adrian Paul makes an admirable job of the movie's main character. As with all other entries in the series we have an over-the-top villain with a name starting with a 'K', and some very well choreograhed sword battles. The thin storyline feels a little stetched in places to fill the 96 minute running time, and the whole movie feels like an double-length TV episode. But apart from that, this is a much better entry than "Highlander III", and turns the franchise back in the right direction.
