Review of Highlander (1986) by Mcgillotine — 29 Jun 2015
Possibly one of the best films of all time and i'm not even joking. Russell Mulcahy's 1986 action flick Highlander is a film with so much raw ambition it is definitely a film worth re watching. The Plot takes place in present day 1986 and Connor Macleod played by Christopher Lambert is one of the few immortals who remain, congregating together in an event known as the gathering to battle to the last for the ultimate prize.
Co-staring Clancy Brown and Sean Connery in strong performances as The Kurgan and Ramirez respectfully, a plot that may have seemed absurd on paper just works so cleverly and with a amazing soundtrack by queen the film certainly doesn't disappoint.
Where the film is no doubt at time goofy and silly the combination of both add to the films charm and memory, but don't waste your time on the sequels as there can only be one.
