I agree the first one was temendous. I will admit although I never watched it, the TV series looked like it had its' heart in the right place. Unlike the other movies.
One of my favorite movies. Highlander 2 isn't bad...but you have to get the directors cut for it to make ANY sense. There's a special Tin set on DVD that my bro got me that has Queen stuff in it. Don't think it's available anymore.
First Highlander is a very good film. I like the television series as well. The soundtrack is probably the best part of it though. A kind of magic by Queen is a great album standing alone as well.
I like the TV series better, (and I Adrian Paul!), but the first movie was the best out of all of the others.

The first one is still a damn good film.
The European Cut and director's cuts with the extra footage are the definitive versions.
Highlander 2 had great potential. There are several different versions, but overall the most satisfying version of the film is the "Renegade Version", which has an extended run time and does away with some of the more questionable concepts from the theatrical cut.
3 was mediocre, and I hated the TV series. The cartoon was better.
love the first film. 2 and 3 were absolute garbage and i can't watch them. TV series was great was it found it's groove and it really defined and expanded the immortal concept. Really like Endgame, plot holes and all. HL 5 was the biggest piece of garbage I have ever seen

Didn't even know there was a Highlander 5. Was endgame the one that married the TV Series to the movies?? And is that considered Highlander 4? Higlander 2, whenever I watch it, reminds me of a Hawkman comic...the one from the late 80's/early 80's.
yeah, End Game was HL 4 and merged the movies and TV show. but in fairness the show pilot episode did that first by having Connor in it.
5 was so bad they could not even get a theatrical release in the states so it aired on SciFi. it was called the Source and was about finding the source of their immortality. complete with a thousands of years old jabba the hutt type creature/immortal. stone age immortals with steel weapons.....oh yeah, and the producers did not learn from the disaster that wsa HL 2 and set 5 in the future in a post apocalyptic world
