Highlander the Source. . .lived up to it (NO SPOILERS). . .! - NewtonMP2100 - 09-16-2007
. . .the SciFi original movie curse. . .
I would say slightly better than the average SciFi original movie (in terms of acting, plot, etc.) but basically the same thing. . .
no real answers (not really) and at the end just thinking. . .it took you that long and all that blech to come up with that? Not crazy about the "special effect" they used either. . .
It was good to see Adrian Paul again. . .but nothing like the series. . .and while you can never tell. . .I think fans of the series will be disappointed. . .
though if someone likes it by all means I would like to hear about it. . .
didn't expect a masterpiece and not surprised but waste of time. . .the best thing was. . .I didn't pay to see it in a movie theater. . .
oh well. . . better luck next SciFi Saturday. . .

I've got it set to record. I was hoping for something as enjoyable as the series, at least.
Really too bad, based on your report, Newt.

Big fan of the first movie and the series.
This one was mildly entertaining. Fight scenes were disappointing, and the main adversary didn't come off as terribly menacing. Editing left a lot to be desired as well.

Better than the average Sci-Fi Saturday night movie, but still not a good movie on its own. I was disappointed, too. But, Adrian Paul really may be an immortal, since he didn't look like he had aged a day since the series ended.

Back when they were looking for a new James Bond, I often thought that Adrian Paul would be great in that role.
I watched every episode and loved Tessa as his love interest, although I have to say they always had some wonderful actresses playing that part.
Never thought too much of Richie, though.
Always one of my favorite fantasy shows.
