I have watched this movie once. This was on .
An immortal Scottish swordsman must confront the last of his immortal opponent, a murderously brutal barbarian who lusts for the fabled "Prize".
From another time comes a man of incredible power. He is immortal. Now he is about to face the ultimate challenge. At stake is the greatest prize imaginable.
Wow, this is an incredibly goofy mismatch of everything. It is bizarre. There is some explosions, poor visuals, cheesy action, strange minor characters with one-liners, more explosions and music by Queen – I can’t believe it is simply a product of its era.
There are some redeeming aspects; a couple of interesting scene transitions and impressive mise-en-scène. Car camera work has a kinetic feeling. The lightning for the final-final sword fight felt it inspired the Shanghai battle in Bond’s Skyfall - great colours and silhouetted characters.
If there can only be one and they knew they’d be drawn to a final battle, why did they all – except the one dude – appear to be best buddies?
All the way through I was thinking it would be perfect for a remake… turns out John Wick director Chad Stahelski has a movie starring Henry Cavill in production!
