What an absolute atrocity. The picture quality on this DVD is the worst I have *EVER* seen. I’m fortunate to have the same edition on laserdisc, in addition to the original US release on laserdisc, and the quality in both cases is far superior. You’ll think something is wrong with your DVD player if you buy this version. If you can’t find the LD, go for VHS.
Now, that having been said, the MOVIE is my all-time fave. Love the idea, love the cinematography, and love the performances of all the actors, especially Connery. It’s true that the original US cut makes somewhat less sense than the Director’s Cut, but that’s a two-edged sword. The flow of the original US cut was better, while the Director’s cut drags a bit in places. Also, the US cut, while “confusing” is also mysterious in a way that made it fun to watch again and again, because you had to figure out little details that are simply explained in the Director’s cut.
Overall, it’s a pity this DVD is such a hack job. If it’s ever remastered (which it should be), then they should do the same thing they’ve done with some other DVD titles — allow you to select whether you want the US release or the Director’s Cut. Also, think ANAMORPHIC!
‘Highlander’ released to the theaters in ‘86 was an instant cult classic. And why wouldn’t it be, clashing swords, severed heads, a secret society of Immortals living secretly amongst us battling to the death through the centuries in hopes of being the last Immortal standing. It doesn’t get any better than that. As the sacred prophecy predicted, “In the end there can be only one”. Add to the mix a killer soundtrack written and performed by Queen and you’ve got yourself a franchise.

Christopher Lambert plays Connor MacLeod, the Highlander in the role that made him famous and unfortunately typecast him for all time. Be that as it may, this is his signature role and he is perfect in the part. Sean Connery is also wonderful as his best friend, mentor and fellow Immortal Juan Sanchez Villalobos Ramirez.
A lot of previous reviewers have already voiced their concerns about the quality of the DVD transfer. To be honest, whatever technical problems may exist with the sound quality and picture resolution, they haven’t been noticable enough to me to lessen my enjoyment of this classic action/adventure.
