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.
