Been a massive fan of Highlander for years, although it's more from the TV series than the films (let's forget about the Animated series, okay!) but for some reason, I was never in a rush to see The Source... until last night on BBC 1...

Oh dear... How I managed to sit through the whole thing, I don't know. It was an absolute travesty of a "film", barely had two coherent scenes in it, made no sense whatsoever, killed off one of the best supporting characters ever seen in the series, and had the worst choreographed and badly filmed fight scenes I have ever seen... and considering that a large part of Highlander is about the sword fighting, it's a pretty fundamental thing that they need to get right.

I feel as if I have been robbed of 90 minutes of my life that I can't get back. I bet Christopher Lambert is glad he left the franchise a few years ago now!

I kind of lost track of the Highlander franchise after Highlander 3 (or Highlander 1.5 as I tend to think of it) so I haven't seen The Source, but I do remember reading some reviews that made me wonder whether they had accidentally left the actual film out whilst they were making it.
