DVD Reviews of Highlander

DVD Review: Highlander is a fantastic,romantic and awesomely good film
Summary: 5 Stars

Highlander is a tremendously entertaining,very impressive,exciting and enjoyable film to experience.It is a very romantic fantasy adventure and a great supernatural film.I love this movie.The music by QUEEN is so beautifull.Highlander is part love story and part action adventure film.This movie is the perfect film,it has everything in it action,romance,tradgedy,immortal heroes and villains and life after death and immortality.They should have shown in the second film the immortals divine origins.Not they are aliens from the planet zeist.That doesn`t make sense and it contradicts the first film.They should have shown the immortals get eternal life from the supernatural powers from GOD or supernatural powers from satan.I wish they also resurrected the Kurgan in the second film.Also they should shown a spiritual dimension or spirit world and heaven and hell.

DVD Review: Highlander DVD
Summary: 4 Stars

The DVD version is great! One star was taken out of my review, because subtitle options are very limited (french only), but this is one of the greatest movies I've seen!!! Recommended purchase!

DVD Review: Great quality
Summary: 5 Stars

I finally ignored many of the reviews and got tired of waiting for whatever Blu-ray version that may one day exist and bought the DVD and to say; the music is excellent and also nothing at all wrong with the DVD quality. Sure not 1080p quality but fairly good for DVD.
So much so I can now say I proudly own all of the 6 seasons of the TV series and all of the movies. The original Highlander movie finally convinced me to finish off the collection and to have all of them.
Great to see the original again and I had forgotten so many things and it was great to see how it all began. I told recommend this edition!!Highlander (The Immortal Edition)

DVD Review: One of my favorite movies ever! Forget all the old DVD editions, the Immortal Edition is the one to have!
Summary: 5 Stars

First of all I have to say that Highlander is one of the greatest fantasy pictures of all time. I saw it for the first time on DVD, the one DVD that Republic put out back in 1997. Now of course I was not too big on picture quality and audio and widescreen ratios but as the years passed my mind changed. The DVD did suck balls despite the THX logo on the front of it. So much for a good transfer. But it was a huge improvement over the theatrical release on videotape. So when I saw the 2-Disc Immortal Edition online and on shelves I decided to have it for myself. I bought this bad boy for only 9 bucks at a Wal-Mart and thankfully Anchor Bay put it out. Now Anchor Bay does a kickass job with their DVD titles and Highlander really comes to life in the Immortal Edition. It does get the THX treatment but with a better quality than Republic's version. Anchor Bay did put out a single-disc version of the film, but come on! I bought the Immortal Edition at Wal-Mart for 9 bucks and the single-disc version was sold for like 15 bucks plus elsewhere. Kind of odd if you ask me. Correct me if I'm wrong, but oh well. Most of the extras do come from the older DVD versions but the Queen CD that comes with the movie is brand new. If you do want to hear all the best songs from the movie's soundtrack buy the Queen Platinum Collection, which is 3 CDs. It's worth it and is a great companion to movies like this, Flash Gordon, Wayne's World, and also The Mighty Ducks. As for Highlander, grab the Immortal Edition above all else. If there can be only one, then the Immortal Edition is it!

DVD Review: Aye
Summary: 5 Stars

Highlander. Where do I begin?
I enjoy the whole story line of being immortal and fighting other immortals, slicing their heads off with swords. There can be only one!
I didn't see this movie until I was like 17 which was what like 3 years ago, and this movie has no era to me, just the past and the future. Its like it was neither old or new to me, it was just a cool movie.
I bought it for many reasons, I like to have unique movies added to my collection. I'm very choosy with movies I like. This one won a spot on my shelf. If you like sword fighting. If you like fantasy type stuff. If you like a little bloodshed. If you like being forever young. If you like Queen. If you like men with long hair and kilts and say aye, then this movie is for you.

Description of Highlander

This is where the epic of the immortals begins a legend that spans centuries with a power that transcends life itself. Studio: Starz/sphe Release Date: 11/11/2008 Starring: Chistopher Lambert Sean Connery Run time: 116 minutes Rating: R Director: Russell Mulcahy
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
