Conner Macleod is a Scot who should have died in 1536. But he belongs to a rare race of immortals that can only be killed when beheaded with a sword. Their destiny is to duel through history until the Gathering, when the remaining few will battle for supremacy. Macleod lives in peace for four centuries.

And he will wield more power than any man ever dreamed existed.… (meer)

Immortal people want to kill each other for some reason.

2.5/4 (Okay).

Most of the concept is just a lot of arbitrary "this is how this works because I said so." But I kind of like that sort of thing. The plot, though, of "these people need to kill each other, and then they do, the end," is just... why? Why is that all that happens in a two hour movie? ( )

Yes, this is the film that captured my imagination for all time. Connor MacLeod, (Christopher Lambert) an immortal, who learns what that entails from his mentor, Juan Sanchez Via Lobos Ramirez, played by Sean Connery. Great scenery, great costumes (particularly Sean's), great story, and music by Queen done specifically for this film that has become classic in so many other films. Lots of questions, lots of layers of history. Life, love, war, and for how many generations? What would it be like to be an immortal? And who could play the canny wolflike, yet vulnerable Connor better than Christoph? ( )

There are two reasons to see this movie. Sean Connery- who makes a rather funny part as the hero's mentor, and Clancy Brown's villain. He plays the Kurgan with gleeful humour. Unfortunately, Lambert is a wooden and rather unsympatethic her. With one facial expression only. Then one can wonder why he plays a Scot, and the real Scot plays an Egyptian... ( )

This 1986 fantasy/action thriller has since spawned two sequels, a popular syndicated TV series, numerous comic-book spinoffs, and a loyal (if somewhat oddly obsessive) following of fans. Directed by music video veteran Russell Mulcahy (which explains the dizzying camera work), the original theatrical release made hash of an intriguing story about an "Immortal" from 16th-century Scotland (Christopher Lambert) who time-leaps to modern-day America with his archenemy (Clancy Brown) in hot pursuit. It becomes a battle to the death (yes, Immortals can die), and Lambert seeks survival training from an Immortal mentor played by Sean Connery. Dazzling, energetic, and altogether confusing in its original form, the film has since been released on video, laserdisc, and DVD in this revised widescreen "director's cut," with additional footage, director and producers' commentary, a photo and artwork archive, the original trailer, and an official time line of the film's evolution from script to screen. A must for Highlander fans ... and you know who you are!
