Highlander (30th Anniversary Edition) [4K UHD]

Great product!

Excellent seller. Excellent movie. I have to admit, as much as I love the 4K transfer, the audio is still not where it should be. Not the seller's fault though. Thank you for the quick shipment!!

Main THING....Ya got the T-Shirt message, Right?

Magnificent 4k transfer of this classic film. Beautiful slip cover art. Comprehensive menu selections that come with extras on the 4k disc. This is a true 4k resolution, unlike some of the others that I’ve ordered recently

One of the best movies

DVD arrived in excellent condition.

Cool Steelbook. Superb picture and audio brings the movie alive like never before. Fantastic movie with a story the spans lifetimes of a hero with a soundtrack to match it’s epic story.

I am reviewing the Director's Cut of this DVD. The film his added scenes, and greatly enhanced surround sound (very muy bueno). Don't bother with the Immortal Editon. It has nothing to offer.So here we go. The 16th century collides with modern day. Good vs Evil, with immortals. Could it get any better!!! The cinetography is superb in its darkness, the soundtrack is great (Queen), and the editing is tight. There is enough swordplay between the Immortals to keep a samurai glued to the screen.When this film came out, it was the cutting edge of sci-fi/ incorporated rock sound track. Christopher Lambert burst into this film as a soft-eyed hero, and there is immediate empathy to the character. He plays a Scot from the 16th century who discovers he is immortal. Unfortunately, the rest of the immortals are trying to kill each other for `The Prize', which is undisclosed until the final moments of the film. Throughout the movie, you `feel' his sadness at being immortal, and outliving those he loved. Unfortunately Lambert accepted roles in too many B films later on. But I still like the guy.The film does a great job of connecting modern day events to the past with flashbacks, ending a New York scene with a rise in the camera angle into ancient Scotland as if you are on an elevator emerging from the earth. Very nice touch, an effect I have yet to see since. The Scottish clan battles set in the 16th century are pre-Braveheart, yet realistic. In the DVD I have, there are replaced scenes of `McCloud episodes' through history.Along with fairly decent (for the time) special effects, you have a most excellent villian in The Kurgan (Clancy Brown...and where did HE go). He plays the role with virve, and a bit of humor (modern day, he kills another immortal, stabs a vigillante, and steals a car. In the car is an old woman. He calmly turns to her and says "MOM?"...singing `New York New York after he kidnaps the heroine...)) His role is so impressive, in a way, you he steals the movie.A nice treat is Sean Connery as another immortal who trains Connor McCloud in the art od swordsmanship (which, by the way, was actually played by the actors, and very well choreographed). Bad part is he plays a 16th century Spaniard, who is actually Egyptian, and has a British accent. Still, he adds a very real touch of class even though he is only in the film for fifteen minutes.There isn't a better example of Good vs Evil in a sci-film (okay, maybe The Matrix). Like my other reviews, I refuse to ruin the movie or the ending with an easy give-away. (okay, the final scenes are SUPERB swordplay and the hero wins...sorry. had to do it).As to the soundtrack. You can't beat Queen for feeling and being in touch with the scene. There isn't a soul who has seen this film who cannot feel the pain and agony of loss (set 16th century Scotland) as Connor McCloud's wife, Blossom, grows old and dies to Queen's `Who Wants To live Forever'.You who have seen this film will want the Director's Cut. You who haven't, well, trust me, you'll want it too.
