I read Sir Gawain and the Green Knight in college and looked forward to this movie. The story is meant to convey deep truths. This movie is a betrayal of the source material. This movie is garbage. I watched every second of this movie, carefully, with a friend (Please forgive me, friend.) I have no idea what the director or screenwriter was aiming at. Like no idea whatsoever. The movie is painfully slow, with nothing happening onscreen for minutes at a time. The "lessons" are cheap ones you could garner from a much better movie. I could go through all the reasons that this film dropped the ball, but I don't want to waste your time. Give it a miss. Spend those two hours of your life doing something, anything, more productive than watching this giant mistake of a film.
