Sean Connery (nonsensical as his character in this movie is) looks like he's really enjoying his role here too, and he's got a good, fun screen chemistry with co-star Christopher Lambert. Also, the latter' old man voice in the 1st act is just about the most unintentionally funny thing ever.

Put simply, I love this movie, and for all it's baffling plotholes, ridiculous performances and every other wrong decision they made in production, it's actually the film I enjoy the most out of the whole Highlander franchise.
That makes me wanna go look up that old 90s Highlander show. I remember watching the **** out of that as a kid.
