"There can only be one." muttered Christopher Lambert, ready to knock Sean Connery into eight million pieces.And quite frankly as many people can agree, there should have only been one.But unfortunately Hollywood always sees dollar signs in it's eyes and so that's why it's been running around like some cheapo Hanna-Barbera knock off and throwing all these so called "sequels" to the cult classic in our silly little faces.Many people run up to the hills and shout the second is the worst one of all. Others walk to the forest and laugh at the sheer cheapness of Endgame. And a few others choke up when The Final Dimension is mentioned. (Hey that rhymes but you won't give a crap.) But this miserable, this really really shoddy and miserable excuse for a sequel also cuts the mustard. In fact it doesn't just cut the mustard, it causes the mustard to explode onto the floor, making a gigantic mess of everything.That also explains the film's plot. It is quite frankly a gigantic mess, it honestly feels like the writers were running all over the place to find the most silliest plot devices as possible.Here's the deal matey, Duncan and a bunch of other no-ones must find something called "The Source." What is it? Well I don't have a bladdy clue because no one can be bothered to go into any detail on what it is and what it does.I hope you have a ton of beer and a couple of friends at the ready because this would surely make a fun drinking game. You all could take a drink and laugh out loud at all the childish Channel 5 level dialogue that the actors churn out of their mouths.Also I'm sure there must have been some decent effects somewhere... because at this point I can't find them at all. Just some incredible amount of dodgyness. Dodgy CG, dodgy models, dodgy everything. Even everyone's hair feels dodgy and I'm pretty sure that's not what they were going for, trust me.Every single one of the cast members looks bewildered by the silliness of it all, Adrian Paul looks like he walked out of a pub incredibly drunk and Jim Byrnes is crying on the inside of his brain, probably asking the producers could he leave so he can head back to Voice Acting Land? Everyone else is a bunch of unknowns and most of em can't act for toffee.Also there is no such thing as "Direction" as not a single bit of it is to be found here. Then again I didn't expect much from Brett "I made that Lawnmower Man film where all the effects looked cool back then but are now unbelievably awful to look at" Leonard.Final drill to your brain or your eyes or any part of the body is that it was done by the sheer mastermind of awfulness, Syfy. Ahhh yes, that channel that can do great programs and miniseries but can't make a film to save their lives. It's no wonder we keep getting cluttered with this kind of crap.Davis and Panzer (the producers trying to keep this dead horse of a franchise alive) pretty much agreed with us all so the plug was pulled on the franchise and despite news of a remake coming soon, no one has attempted to make a sequel ever since.Thank goodness for that, these sequels have been getting more sillier and sillier. It's like these films are actually a competition to see who can make the worst sequel. Mr Mulcahy still takes the cake with 2 but Mr Leonard ain't behind with this stinker.Fun for aficionados of truly bad cinema, painful for everyone else.

God, how did they manage to make a film so bad. They completely managed to destroy what was left of The Highlander series. (There wasn't that much left after the many disappointing films and TV shows). This was a million time worse than any of the other films that came before.The fight scenes are almost cartoon like and I almost expected to see speed lines. The real question is how on earth did they spend 13 million dollars? I have to assume it was spent on giving the chimps that wrote the scripts a daily supply of glue to sniff. The director should be horrified with their career. Unless they get a professional they should leave this series alone. This is my opinion on this god awful 'film' but my opinion could just be orbital wobble.

Just one question? What were the producers when they made this film? It just kept getting worse and worse as the film went on, so much random stuff was happening and the acting wow, you seriously can't get any worse than this. The fighting was downright awful, and they were moving as if they just took some weird drugs off of the streets. It really was that horrible and I hope and pray that no one else has the chance to see such a bad film. No words can truly describe how terrible this film is. It's so bad, I just can't stop laughing. I grew up as a hardcore Highlander fan, and now this, this is just icing on the cake. It's that bad, that you must laugh.It should be rated 0 stars/10.

The TV series was awesome, amazing with a morality story in almost every episode. There was something classy about the show and the characters. What the heck when wrong with this film!! All the actors are back. The core is there, but the story - the source, it is NOT. I will not tell you the story,so no spoiler here, but the use of special effects, right out of Matrix. That alone ruined whatever bit of storyline existed. The costly effects ruined the movie to the point having no association with the series. This is NOT Highlander. While it is great to see all the same faces and actors playing the parts - Duncan McCloud is NOT the McCloud we love and cherish. It is like the series and all the struggles he went through just never happened. What a waste.Honestly, just skip this, I am sad to say, very disappointing. And I am a huge fan of the show.
