Editorial Reviews and DVD Information about Highlander - Endgame

Amazon.com
Despite a typically haphazard plot, Highlander: Endgame is a marked improvement over previous sequels. This is the "torch-passing" chapter, in which the Immortal Connor MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) passes his life force to his heroic brother, Duncan (Adrian Paul, star of the 1993-96 Highlander TV series). These appealing stars make a fine onscreen duo, and Paul is a terrific choice to keep the franchise alive--strikingly handsome but possessing enough gravitas to make the prospect of future sequels unexpectedly promising. The movie is incoherent to the uninitiated, but established fans will be reasonably impressed by Endgame's cagey mix of romance, swordplay, and history-spanning action. While the movie's chaotic construction is regrettable, the frequent battles (including dazzling work by Honk Kong action star Donnie Yen) are adequately impressive, and Douglas Milsome--cinematographer of Stanley Kubrick's Full Metal Jacket--ensures that every scene is strikingly photographed. All in all, Highlander: Endgame is surprisingly worthwhile. --Jeff Shannon

Customer Reviews for Highlander - Endgame

The Best Movie That Should Never Have Been Made ...
What do you do when you have an opportunity to make a sequel to a mvie with a completely closed ending? Make it anyways. At the end of the original Highlander movie, Connor MacLeod had defeated the last of the immortals. He could grow old and die. He could have children. The power of all then immortals in a single mind allowed him to know the thoughts of others and help make the world a better place.

Oops! Wait! There are still immortals alive, hidden in seclusion on holy ground. Connor only THOUGHT that he had won the prize. And thus, with a blatant attempt at explaining away something that had already happened, the producers opened to door to another Highlander movie.

This movie does have some redeeming qualities. Deborah Unger is the first. Amazingly sexy and paired well with Christopher Lambert, This movie is worth buying because she is in it. Another such redeeming quality is the sequence where Connor returns to the Highlands to find the strength and inspiration to go on. Backed by the amazing music of Loreena McKennitt, this part of the movie almost redeems the whole.Highlander - Endgame

Pretty good for being a decade old
It was good. Better than the latest Highlander that went straight to video. I would watch it again.Highlander - Endgame

Nice and Solid
This DVD epitomizes the best of the best from the Highlander series. There were a few cheesy moments and a touch of overacting here and there, but over all it was a solid hit. If the story were to stop here this would be a good way to wrap it all up.Highlander - Endgame

The Further Adventures...
Highlander: Endgame seems to pick up not long after the ending of the television series, with Duncan seeking his mentor and fellow clansman Connor, who has grown tired of the Game and gone into "Sanctuary" (I'll not give away any more of the plot....watch it to see what happens..).

One thing though...any die-hard Highlander fan knows that Duncan was never married (see season 2, episode 4, "The Darkness", in which Tessa dies), yet in Endgame, his "wife" reappears....whats up with that?Highlander - Endgame

Job well done
As a long time fan of the TV Series I really enjoyed this movie. I'd have given it one more stare if it had played true to the TV plot. In show they make it clear he was never married, now he has been. She is enough of a fox that Duncan could not have forgotten her.Highlander - Endgame
