When I first saw this over 10 years ago I thought the producers had finally got the series back on track after the outrageous 2nd movie and retread 2rd movie. It had a good plot, fairly good acting, a wild villain which was not just a copy of The Kurgan and it had both "Movie Highlander" Christopher Lambert and "TV Highlander" Adrian Paul together.
When I look back at it now I see that it was just a spin off of the TV series (which I was never into at the time) and Lambert was in to "pass the torch" to Paul.
The movie's tone is about redemption and I feel is a worthy send off for Connor while making Duncan the main protagonist for movies to come which unfortunately we only got 1 which was pretty dreadful.
If you really want to get into Highlander I suggest the best is the first film then ignore the end part and watch this.
7 out of 10 for me.
