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! --Jeff Shannon

The bluray is superior honestly. The 4K is so grainy it's sad. I literally paused at same point playing both and compared side-by-side and the bluray was clearer due to grain being less (but still fairly high).

4k is a big improvement in video and sound. The video is still a bit grainy but certainly an improvement. The previous Blu-ray was a disappointment in quality. Remember this movie when it came out and on tv. Always a fan.

Highlander classic cult film. The story of immortals batteling till only one is left en gets the Prize. Great soundtrack by Queen.

They should have left it at this film. Highlander 2 is one of the worst films ever made. Only to be beaten by Highlander V. Which is in my opinion and I am not the only one the worst movie ever made. IV was also not good at all. The series however where very good and Highlander III is also watchable.

5.0 out of 5 stars There can be only one!
Reviewed in Canada on July 1, 2019

When Highlander was released in cinemas in 1986, the film suffered a massive attack from critics. Insults and demeaning remarks; in complete opposite to the public’s support for that story.

Indeed, the film, right from its release, got a massive support from viewers and fans of heroic-sword-fight -fantasy adventures. Spectators mentioning quotes from the film, recounting moments to others. Word-of-mouth that has made Highlander a staple of 1980s classic. Of Scottish drama where a Macleod clan member, Connor, discovers he is an immortal after an enemy clan lord named Kurgan, another immortal, slays him. Due to his new powers, Connor’s community outcasts him as a hellspawn, forcing him to become a hermit, then the pupil of another immortal named Ramirez who trains him for his upcoming new life as a Timeless Warrior. Life of duels with others like him until only one will remain. The winner of the Gathering. A prize that can revolutionise this Earth’s Future for good, if in the hands of people like Connor, or destroy if people like Kurgan obtain it.

So Connor is plunged into a war that spans centuries. Right till 1985. When he and Kurgan’s final confrontation occurs. And in between them, a Forensic analyst named Brenda Wyatt; who has stumbled on the Highlander and his existence. Fallen in love with this man who has endured much loneliness due to his powers.

In sum, a great love story that again shows how landscapes like Scotland are haven for romantic treasures such as Outlander, Highlander, and Breaking the Waves. All three classics that people of the regions have loved and praised as great classics of their folklore. Even showing these films in schools to show the importance of Scottish culture and its perception worldwide.

And although I know there have been sequels surrounding Highlander, even tv shows that show alternate universes to the Macleod story such an animated series that I have loved and which was my entry into the Highlander culture. and a great TV show starring Adrian Paul whom I have met at Montreal Comiccon and who is very kind with fans, I consider this film the definite storyline. Complete in itself and irrefutable in its conclusion which i shall not reveal.

But in a way, these sequels and those TV shows are all proofs that the film, unlike what the critics wrote, is a superb classic of action-fantasy cinema.

And what a classic it is.

From its excellent direction from Russell Mulcahy whom I first saw his work on Tales from Teh Crypt and its masterpiece episode Split Second which he directed. Showing, like he did in that episode, long takes that follow a person’s movements either in a small or large space area. Without the slightest cuts. Innate talent for filming actions scenes. Especially as he filmed Sean Connery’s scenes in one week due to the actor’s time schedule. Which shows how reliable this work load would be perfect for a TV landscape. Which he has shown as well in TV shows like Teen Wolf.

As for the actors, much praises to Christophe Lambert, who was perfect as the Highlander Connor Macleod, and also to Clancy Brown, who did the frightening and powerful Kurgan. Which makes me laugh considering that most kids nowadays know him as Mr Krabs in the SpongeBob Universe. A series that is incomplete opposite to his antagonistic role of Highlander. Where, although I haven’t seen much episodes, I do hope they made references to Highlander as it would have been a great tribute to his pop culture popularity thanks to that Kurgan character.

Kudos also to Sean Connery as the charming and roguish Ramirez, but also to Roxanne Hart who filmed her scenes as the sharp and intuitive Brenda Wyatt, and also to Beatie Edney (Connor’s first wife) and Sheila Gish, who played his adopted daughter he rescued during World War 2.

As for the script, I have nothing but praises for its tackle of the harrowing past of Connor’s life in Scotland, and his existence in Modern New York. But if there would be one remark to say, it would be the regret that the story wasn’t done instead as mini series of three/four one hour episodes. Indeed, I feel that we could have discovered more detail about the Highlander and his travels worldwide, but also his psychological journey through the ages. His joys and pains, but also the reality of living in a modern world that has evolved for better and for worse. Especially in a city like New York that had back then, much more criminality and pollution than before.

Again, what I just wrote is not really a criticism. but more of a feeling how this story could have been even more fascinating as a TV series. Which makes sense as so many successful series like Game of Thrones and Outlander have allowed a more exhaustive dive into their storylines.

But if I do have to state one thing, it is how the HD transfer was very good. Not perfect as there have been some unsuccessful transfers for scenes involving special effects and even a shot set in 16th century Scotland that become grainier as the camera followed Connor, his first wife, and Ramirez. Again this situation happened only in a couple of instances. But which I find worth pointing out , in the hope they shall improve their work for any future remastering.

In conclusion, I encourage everyone who loves Fantasy-Sword stories to watch Highlander. Especially fans of the music group Queen who worked on this project as they composed several songs destined for this film and their album A Kind of Magic. For instance One Year of Love. Which is my favourite song out of all their compositions in this Scotland adventure. Songs composed alongside Michael Kamen’s music. A composer known for his work on Lethal Weapon, Brazil, The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, and many other classics.

In sum, Highlander is a masterpiece of 1980s fantasy that can be watched on its own. As the central and most irrefutable conclusion to the storyline of the Macleod Clan.

Ho già parlato del film in sé recensendo il Dvd, quindi non è il caso di farla lunga: uno dei migliori film fantastici degli anni '80 (e quindi di tutti i tempi),visivamente elettrizzante (e a tratti ancora innovativo), ma non banale nemmeno sotto il profilo narrativo, grazie a un'idea originale di partenza, un ritmo sempre alto, una riflessione struggente sull'immortalità (o sullo scorrere del tempo in generale), il tutto sostenuto da una delle migliori colonne sonore di sempre.
Veniamo quindi all'edizione Blu-ray. Molti si sono lamentati della qualità audio video indegna del marchio 'Full HD'. Ma, rispetto al Dvd, i miglioramenti sono notevoli, e comunque (come hanno fatto notare altri utenti) Highlander nacque come film a budget medio-basso, quindi è plausibile che cineprese e pellicole utilizzate non fossero il massimo della qualità. E la tecnologia può solo prendere ciò che c'è nella pellicola originale e trasferirlo in digitale il più fedelmente possibile; non può certo compiere il miracolo di creare la qualità dal nulla.
Ma il vero passo avanti è nel comparto 'extra'. Il Dvd si limitava al minimo sindacale: il trailer e un'intervista a Christopher Lambert.
Nel Blu-ray si aggiungono anche un'intervista alla coprotagonista Roxanne Hart e altre due molto più lunghe: la prima agli sceneggiatori Gregory Widen e Peter Bellwood, e la seconda al direttore della fotografia Gerry Fisher e allo scenografo Allan Cameron, che spiegano le idee alla base del film e la realizzazione tecnica degli effetti speciali.
Ci sono anche sei minuti di 'scene inedite'. In realtà si tratta di scene presenti nel film, ma con l'aggiunta di brevissime inquadrature sforbiciate nel montaggio definitivo.
Certo, si poteva fare di meglio, magari intervistando il regista Russell Mulcahy e le co-star Sean Connery e Clancy Brown, e magari qualche videoclip dei Queen (chissà, magari l'anno prossimo, col 30° anniversario del film...).
Ma, anche così, il 'contenuti extra' di questo Blu-ray resta un dignitosissimo e interessante 'dietro le quinte'. Un must per i fan della pellicola.
