Review – Highlander

I’m surprised it’s taken me this long to actually sit through this whole movie. After all, it was quite popular back when I was just the right age to enjoy it. Even all these years later, the Queen soundtrack took me straight back to the 80s. Christopher Lambert – yes, he was popular back then – stars a member of a band of immortals who must cut each others’ heads off in order to eventually narrow their number down to “the one.” The story is approximately equally divided between the tale of how our hero came to be the way he is and a modern-day final showdown in New York City. Some of the swordfight choreography is cool, but most of the rest of it is dated. Mildly amusing
