A review by MovieGuys
Written on July 11, 2020
We all remember "Highlander". It was an instant classic, memorable, heartfelt, romantic, exciting, fantastic soundtrack.......
Well "The Old Guard" is its antithesis. Its a brittle tale of justification for globalist Western meddling, social justice, politics of sexuality and more. Once again, the story has been mostly fogotten. It wanders around a bit, has a predictable twist and finally falls out of a window, literally.
The action scenes are fine, as is the acting but these are only ingredients and in this case the "mix" is very wrong.
I hope and pray this is the first and last of these. That said, it looks like they are gearing up for a second one. I can only imagine what that will be like.......
2/10.
