A brilliant movie. An epic tale of honor and glory. As we all know the original "Highlander" in 1986 was originally done by Gregory Widen. Unfortunetly his second and third movie made the "Highlander" movie series popularity drop greatly. The forth movie called "End Game" was a great bounce back for the series. However, due to the great disapointment of the second and third film, "End Game" never really made into theaters and was never really heard of. "Highlander" seemed all but done till June 2007, when Manga entertainment brought out "Highlander Search For Vengeance". This movie is a must see for any "Highlander" or anime fan. A new immortal is on the scene called Colen Macleod. After suffering the murder of his wife and his 400 villagers to the Roman Empire, Colen now searches for the one immortal named Markas. The man responsible for the death of his wife and all that he loved. One era after another Colen finds Markas and time and time again fails to quench his thirst for vegeance. 2000 years have passed and still Colen has not found piece, or claimed the head of the one who stole his love. Will Colen ever find piece in his heart? Will he ever learn to love again? Or will his heart remain poisened through the vegence and hatred that has been building in his heart for 2000 years? All will be revealed in what is critically claimed to be the best "Highlander"/Anime movie of 2007.
