Review of The Green Knight (2021) by Shoulderoforion — 19 Aug 2021

I'm conflicted over this movie and my review, it's a story based off a 14th century chivalric romance poem, based on characters from the King Arthur/Camelot myth. The movie itself is beautiful, the characters/actors/acting/sets/scenery all the toppest of top notch, but the story is almost empty, like a ghost of a movie that could have been.

This is such a barebones recreation (with changes) from the original 700 year old poem, they could have fleshed it all out, I mean they had sooo much to work with. As it was it was "nice", but could have been epic, they had all the working pieces already in place.

A chance missed.
