I don’t mind because I hate Christopher Lambert with a passion. He is one of the worst actors I have ever had the misfortune of seeing. The guy butchered every role he had. The original Highlander is probably the only movie that is somewhat, kind of, watchable. But man, I hate this guy. He sucked ass as Raiden in MK, as Beowulf, as Highlander, as whatever else he even thought of acting.
I agree he is terrible. But he was kind of the perfect mess for highlander.
I love that movie but it was an amazing accident. I watched the commentary track and so many of the good scenes were last minute replacements for stupid ideas that they weren’t able to pull off.
I think if they had made the movie they intended it would have been just as good as highlander 2.
The amazing Queen soundtrack helps as well.
