Damn man. This was by far the best highlander movie, because it had the real deal, Adrian Paul as Duncan Mcleoud. Freak. Damn, this one part in the movie almost made me tear. Friggin good, especially if you're a highlander fan. Makes me wanna grab my katana and go through forms and crap, then take off my neighbor's head.

If all movies sucked cause their names sucked, we'd have a hell of a lot of sucky movies out there.

wasn't there a third one, so that would make the new one the forth? right? I knew this discrete math class was good for something.

Can you guys explain why you think Highlander:Endgame is the best of the set? I still think no. 1 is the best. IMO, EndGame's coolest part is the Asian dude with the bigass spear. I don't watch the series so I guess I don't know much about the Adian Paul guy. But his acting is very mediocre.

I guess I'm trying to give it a medium suckage.

Oh please, Christopher Lambert sucks. Adrian Paul is the friggin best actor in the whole damn movie. He's had martial arts training since way back and weapons training as well. Christopher Lambert has had squat. And the fight scenes all suck on part 1, although it was the most decent out of the first 3. Christopher Lambert just has the same expression and that stupid raspy voice and turns his accent on and off, all in the same time period.

Ha, I'm looking forward to what my discrete math class can do for me. If it allows me to reason that well, I am greatly anticipating it!

the third one was the one with mario van peeples as the bad guy-it straight sucked
i'm sick of that dude making one crappy movie after another, he's the king of straight to video now, i think eric roberts comes in a close second

Hey...eric roberts wasn't bad in best of the best part 1. Just part 1, the others sucked big time. I like the korean training better, friggin punching trees and crap in the snow. And eric roberts role as Alex Grady was pretty cool.

Thumbs up

I thought Endgame was pretty good despite who gets killed(I'll keep it a secret for those who haven't seen it). Kind of a surprise.

Thumbs down Two thumbs down

Sorry, but I can't agree. Highlander: Endgame was pathetic. I saw the movie. It had poor plot development, was contrary to all the other movies, had poor fight scenes, and just all around stunk. I liked the first movie and the series but they should have quit while they had the chance.

uh...how can you say endgame had lousy fight scenes. It had duncan in there and the "chinese" guy fighting. That must mean the first three movies had REALLY lousy fight scenes. Cause its painful to watch christopher lambert swing a sword, much less kurgan and the other guys. Its just wailing at each other, no need for any expertise.
