…Highlander III is an utter shambles, but with a few minor points of interest for ironists; most fans of the Highlander movies can agree that there really should have been only one…

Lame, but in a good way.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 3, 2009

An unbelievably trashy meltdown of the tartan warrior franchise.

Lambert is as uncharismatic as ever, while Van Peebles is as frightening as a wrestler in mock angry mood, and just as ridiculous.

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?

This has got to be the worst franchise every created.

How tough could it be to make a "Highlander" that makes sense?

One of those uninspired films that gave sequels such a bad name.

This is the end of the Highlander series, they say. Not an eon too soon.

If it wasn't set eight years later, no one would never know the difference (and of course, never mind the ultra-cheesy, low-budget special effects!).

As for Van Peebles, he's quite the ridiculous sight and sound.

| Jan 1, 2000

The most illogical of the trilogy.

What it can't copy is the first movie's sense of surprise: we're never jolted by any of the sword fights here as we were with the original's broadsword battle in a carpark.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 1, 2000

Mostly the film morphs into a block of dullness.

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jan 1, 2000

They definitely don't come any worse than this.
