Highlander: The Source (2007)
Considering The Predecessors...Not Bad.
I've seen the TV series as well as the movies. I would say that you are sadly mistaken if you are expecting this movie to be any different from the others. Besides the first movie with Lambert and Connery, all of the successors have been far-fetched with poor acting and even worse screen writing.
This movie is not much different, but it does offer an answer for the average highlander fan as to why more and more immortals keep popping up in movies after, they keep saying there can only be one.
This movie offers a conclusion to the series that looks as if it will be final. For a low-budget action film, the last fighting scene with the villain (guardian) is actually quite enjoyable and really well choreographed, despite extremely cheesy special effects that can be expected from a low-budget film.
Overall, this movie was not quite as bad as the last two installments, and I would say that it is somewhat enjoyable. Most importantly it offers finality.

How they got funding...I just don't know!!
Let me start by saying that this movie was so bad that it inspired me to register as a user on this website and write a review.
This movie is only entertaining for the sick and twisted. I've seen movies like Hostel and Saw before. I would agree those movies are far more gruesome, however they do offer a plot line, which offers the audience some intrigue and interest.
Unfortunately, this movie is just disgusting. It offers absolutely no plot line, not even a piece of a story. The script was horrendous at best. There is also no resolution. On top of which, the killer is also a total incompetent pussy, which is contradictory to movies of its genre.
The only good side to this movie was the acting, which was pretty good for this genre of movie. If nothing else, this is why I give it 2 stars instead of 1.
