I have to admit something embarassing. I had never seen this movie before. I knew it was about a Scottish Highlander, but then I saw the picture to the right here --->
and I got confused.
Now, I've seen it. I feel like I've received admission to a special club or something. And I gotta tell you, this movie is pretty frickin' cool. We don't own any of the rest of them -- or the TV show, which my husband swears is even better -- but I want to watch them now. I'm glad they don't explain the whole Immortals thing - where they come from, why, and why the heck they're duking it out. But the idea of a battle royale as old as mankind is pretty cool. Maybe we'll pick up the other ones one of these days.
