The third entry in the series has no discernible plot and suffers greatly from the absence of Sean Connery as the Highlander's mentor.

Another feeble sequel to Highlander that again ignores it's own rules. Tries to recapture the magic of the original, and fails miserably.

Just when you thought it couldn't possibly be any worse than Highlander II... Logic takes a vacation in part three of the increasingly-mind-numbing Highlander series. Van Peebles is frozen in the 14th century (or thereabouts) and thaws out in the 20th. Macleod is no longer "on... read more

Couldn't leave well enough alone. Marginally better than the second movie.. which is an abomination to the Highlander mythos.

*sighs* Why do franchises ALWAYS do this? The first and/or second tend to be good and the rest usually aren't. Don't these people LEARN?

Critic Reviews
How could an action-adventure film that cost $34 million, most of which clearly went into pyrotechnics, computerized special effects and scenic locations, end up looking cheap, silly and lifeless? Full Review
As for Van Peebles, he's quite the ridiculous sight and sound. Full Review
Mostly the film morphs into a block of dullness. Full Review
Lambert is as uncharismatic as ever, while Van Peebles is as frightening as a wrestler in mock angry mood, and just as ridiculous. Full Review
This has got to be the worst franchise every created.
There should have been only one!
How tough could it be to make a "Highlander" that makes sense?
One of those uninspired films that gave sequels such a bad name.
