Los inmortales

Dos actores estrella, la música de Queen y el hermoso paisaje escocés crean una aventura anticuada, desde el punto de vista actual, pero agradable. Lo anticuado se debe principalmente al guión basura, que funciona solo con pistas y símbolos, pero no utiliza el tema en profundidad. Para la audiencia mayoritaria de la época, un entretenimiento sin cerebro muy atractivo. (12.10.2009)

A nice start to an even better fandom. Today, it’s an old hit, which I return to regularly, although I found it almost unwatchable after the year 2000. There's no point in addressing which formal aspects have aged and which haven't, or that the perfect happy ending virtually eliminated the possibility of a sequel. There are sequels and not all the ideas are bad. Queen's great soundtrack also helped a lot and of course so did the cast. "In the end, there can be only one." (16.02.2009)

This film has one great thing: the beautiful Scottish landscape and the mysticism of the flashbacks. The story taking place in the present is predicable and boring, and it’s not even helped by the B-movie like performances, which in this case I found incredibly annoying. To be fair, though, I’ve never liked fantasy in any form, not only in film. (10.04.2009)

An interesting and original plot plus solid technical execution, those are the main strengths of Highlander. The story is well presented and full of mystery, the flashbacks to the past are very intriguing, the music is captivating and, oddly enough, Queen's famous song fit perfectly here. And that's what the viewer needs and expects from a film of this type. At least that's how it was for me. It's also worth mentioning Sean Connery and the demonic Kurgan portrayed by Clancy Brown.

To be honest, 2 stars are perhaps too luxurious a gift for a B-movie with a terrible screenplay and clumsy acting performances, but I will be accommodating today and will appreciate primarily the atmospheric music of my favorite Queen, led by Mercury, and a few impressive flashbacks to medieval Scotland. Nothing else holds up today, even though it is evident that this title greatly elevates the nostalgia of older users and the conformism of younger ones. Overall impression: 40%. (15.08.2015)
