SPOILERS With Lorenzo Lamas as the reincarnation of Alexander the Great and Michael Champion as his evil nemesis fighting over the same damn sword down through the ages. (Although the movie starts with the sword being unearthed in an archaeological dig, which means it's been lost all this time? Well, whatever.) Slow-moving and not much helped by the tentative acting of Mr. Lamas, who seems unsure of himself here. Oddly little action: there is some worthwhile swordplay about halfway through, though it's a bit stagy for my tastes. The big climax is a bust as Michael Champion was apparently uncomfortable with extended swordplay sequences: there's far too much intercutting, presumably to hide the stunt doubles. Stick with HIGHLANDER.
