why do all the interesting characters have to die?!

Dash is rather piqued at the fact that all the interesting characters die in the movie "Highlander: Endgame". Now, what kind of scriptwriting is that?!

Dash likes the Donnie Yen's character, Jin Ke.

As the immortal with *really* nifty martial arts moves, he also obviously has a thinking head on his shoulder, making astute reflections on his boss' behaviour and values. (Though the learning lesson from his fate seems to be - when making such remarks, do not think aloud.)

Dash also likes the character of Kate MacLeod, wife of Duncan MacLeod.

Her anger at Duncan for not giving her a choice to stay mortal or become an immortal, and her efforts to better understand herself and the consequences of her immortality in terms of building relationships over the centuries, all made her much more interesting.

Dash also thought the melodramatic way the character of Jacob Kell speaks is so apt for his angst-ridden personality and history.

In one night, he witch-hunted the mother of his friend Conner MacLeod; and then watched his religious leader who is also a father figure to him fatally wounded by Connor, followed by the shock of his own death and awakening. No wonder all the wires in his character are jumbled! Still, the dramatic delivery of his lines often bemused Dash : )

Of course, they all had to be killed to increase the quotient of angst in the movie. Oh well. Great.

So, if you have a penchant to watch interesting characters get slayed, this movie would be excellent.
