Product Description

An epic fantasy adventure based on the timeless Arthurian legend, THE GREEN KNIGHT tells the story of Sir Gawain (Dev Patel), King Arthur's reckless and headstrong nephew, who embarks on a daring quest to confront the eponymous Green Knight, a gigantic emerald-skinned stranger and tester of men. Gawain contends with ghosts, giants, thieves, and schemers in what becomes a deeper journey to define his character and prove his worth in the eyes of his family and kingdom by facing the ultimate challenger. From visionary filmmaker David Lowery comes a fresh and bold spin on a classic tale from the knights of the round table.

Two different Green Knight 4K UHD Blu-rays each display a fairly similar problem
The five stars in this review are for the movie itself. But, the quality of the disk is also a relevant subject. I want to talk about disk playback issues we have been experiencing. Some disks may be fine. We may have been very unlucky and got two bad disks. We would like to know who else has had the same or a comparable problem.Two different Green Knight 4K UHD Blu-rays each display a fairly similar problem when playing, fast-forwarding, and scene selecting. We want to know if anyone else with an equivalent player, or even a different player, while watching this disk, experienced a similar problem. For those who say this might be a problem with the player and not the disk, why would the player have the same problem in the same place with two different disks?We bought the Green Knight 4K UHD Blu-ray on, October 12, 2021, and exchanged it for another because it stopped at about 54 minutes and would not play any further. We briefly tried to forward past 54 minutes. Using scene selection, we checked about three scenes immediately following 54 minutes and nothing showed up. We were not as thorough as we now, after the fact, wish we were.Next, we checked other 4K UHD Blu-rays on our player, the Sony UPB X700. We know this player can freeze and a reboot allows us to go back and see the complete scene. To rule out the player as the problem, we checked for a similar problem with other 4K UHD Blu-rays. We encountered the usual problems but not this same problem. One person says this 4K UHD disk plays without problems on an Xbox Series X gaming console. No one should have to pay that much just to get through a movie without a glitch.After requesting an even exchange that same day, a replacement arrived one week later on October 19, 2021. Naturally, as you would do, we checked different places on the new disk. Yes, there were places where the new disk showed the usual problems and my hopes were getting up. Now we went to about 54 minutes and, as Gawain turns into the gloomy dark facing away from the camera, the film stopped at about 54 minutes and 2 seconds on the same eerie image as the first disk. This time we waited a few minutes and eventually it started again at 89 minutes. We repeated this exercise a couple of times with the same result. Then we tried, starting around 50 minutes, fast-forwarding. While fast-forwarding, the image skipped at around 54 minutes to 67 minutes. Using scene selection, we tried to access some time in the interval between 54 minutes and 67 minutes and the disk jittered and froze at 59 minutes.

Do you want an action packed swashbuckler?
Do you want a movie with good guys who vanquish the bad guys (or who die heroically and tragically)?
Do you want an authentic period-piece set in the 14th century?
Do you want some righteous blood-and-guts knightly battles, and maybe some thrilling jousting sequences?
If so... this movie is NOT for you.

If you want a thoughtful, beautifully crafted tale which ponders the question of the meaning and value of life, then watch. Read the rest of my comments afterwards, not before.
* * * * *
SPOILERS FOLLOW!!!
* * * * *
1. This is to the Tale of Gawain and the Green Knight what the Last Temptation of Christ is to the Gospels: a radical interpretation which ultimately honors the source material while seeming to radically betray it, plus both involve a bit of a visionary switcheroo.

2. This is a film about failure. He fails at every step of the way to do the honorable thing. Dumps his girlfriend. Treats the crazy peasant-brigand like a crazy peasant instead of like a human being. Tries to bargain for a reward from a ghost for helping her out. Cheats on his host. Abandons his spirit animal. Cheats on his quest. He deserves to have his kingdom fall apart and unravvel completely as he becomes truly a king with no honor. (That house burning in the background opening scene foreshadowed his whole disastrous journey.)

3. This is a film about redemption. He DOES learn as he goes (a little). But he's a screw-up until almost the very end.

4. This is a film with a happy ending. "Off you go now!" (said in a hilariously drole form.) Plus, after the credits roll, we see who is really ruling the world. (Delightful! And a touch of angelic Christmas spirit - which in Last Temptation, of course, is Satanic - here it's wry wink.)

5. The architectural choices are great! High fantasy - a mix of gorgeous 19th century Romanticism frossed with scenes of Flammant-style High Gothic plus the dreariest, drabest imaginings of what the supposed "Dark Ages" looked like.

6. There's even a lovely eco-parable wrapped up in the whole business, not that it needs to be interpreted as such, but it's all about working honorably (with respect) with Nature as opposed to just killing it pointlessly.

* * * * *
I had friends who saw the trailer and decided to pass on the film. "Bleh," they said, "Yet another story of a knight like we've all seen before." Then I saw all the people who rated the film with one star, having been lured in with the trailer and horribly disappointed. It's a shame we have to stoop to prostitution via trailer to turn some coins to get an audience for a beautiful, superbly crafted morality tale, but - we live in a world where honor has very little cachet, do we not? And isn't that the whole point of the film?

1.0 out of 5 stars Love the ORIGINAL story--this movie does not do it justice.
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2021

A waste of time. This is one of my favorite pieces of Medieval Literature. I know the original story well, but this film strays from the plot and is a misleading rendition. The soundtrack is also hard to hear. So disappointed. I will read the original text again to get over this twisted, warped rendition of a much-beloved winter-time story. This film is a convoluted, senseless plot, the original story is brilliant and purposeful.

To restore the story to its original brilliance, read Simon Armitage's translation.
For a fun remake of a medieval tale, A Knight's tale strays from Chaucer's original but does such a great job telling a story. Chaucers' original text AND the movie are complimentary. NOT THIS ONE that features the brilliant GAWAIN.

--Dev Patel could be an amazing Gawain, but this film does not live up to his potential as an actor. i kept watching and hoping, because of Deve Patel, that the film would save itself. It does not. The plot and film do Dev Patel and the character of Gawain a disservice. Gawain is a loyal, fun-loving, charismatic, ethical and purposeful knight. On a scale of 1-10 Dev Patel has the potential to be a 10, but this film is a ZERO. It does not allow Dev to fulfill the character of Gawain's role.

The countryside settings at times seemed realistic, but the dark dreary nature of the film and the ugly, meaningless indoor settings do not even come close to the warmth and intense loveliness, lustiness, and gorgeous drama of the original story.

What a waste of time, energy, and storytelling. They should have kept to the original version. I'm waiting for a brilliant tale about the great, grand, green nature knight, and the charismatic, fun-loving, and competent Gawain for a brilliant, winsome winter tale about humans and nature. IT HAS DEEP MESSAGES ABOUT HUMANS, NATURE, MEANING, PURPOSE, LOVE, LOYALTY, AND INNER INTEGRITY. HOW DO WE AS HUMANS LIVE UPON THIS EARTH AND NOURISH OURSELVES AND OTHERS?
THE ORIGINAL STORY IS HEARTWARMING AND INSPIRING.

NOT THIS DARK ANATHEMA--THIS FILM WAS DISGUSTING. IT LOSES ALL OF THE DEEP MYSTERY, POWER BEAUTY, AND TRANSFORMATIVE PURPOSE OF THE ORIGIANAL TALE.

SIMON ARMITAGE SHOULD WRITE A SCREENPLAY A GOOD FILMMAKER SHOULD HAVE MADE THIS FILM.

DEV PATEL, YOUR TALENT WAS WASTED, AND I FEEL SORRY FOR YOU.

THIS FILM IS SUCH A LOSS.

5.0 out of 5 stars König Artus/Gawain-Saga in elegischen Bildern plus Erklärung/Spoiler
Reviewed in Germany on December 12, 2021
Verified Purchase
Zunächst ist das Grundproblem des Films, das er auf einem Gedicht aus dem 14. Jahrhundert basiert und der Regisseur wesentliche Elemente für den Film übernommen hat – viele Zuschauer aber den Hintergrund der Handlung – also wie dies in The Green Knight metaphorisch umgesetzt wurde, nicht unmittelbar überleiten können. Am Ende dieses Beitrags gibt es dazu einen Spoiler. Bezüglich einer Gesamtbewertung ist zu sagen, dass The Green Knight natürlich kein typischer Action-Film ist oder wie Game of Thrones funktioniert. Dafür brilliert durch eine echte „Helden“-Saga, die von dem Regisseur mittels geradezu halluzinatorische Bilder umgesetzt wurde. Wenn man die Hintergründe zur Story kennt, kann dem Film auch logisch gefolgt werden. Hoffentlich beschert uns der Regisseur David Lowery (A Ghost Story, The Saints) noch weitere solcher Meisterwerke.

*Spoiler*
Der Grüne Ritter kommt in den Thronsaal und der noch Nicht-Ritter Gawain ist der Einzige der sich für Artus dem Ritter entgegenstellen will. Er solle einen Schlag gegen den Grünen Ritter ausführen und er wird ihn dann 1 Jahr später zurückgeben. Da Gwain unerfahren, überheblich und das Ganze nicht ganz so ernst nimmt, haut er dem Ritter mit Excalibur direkt den Kopf ab (-> es hätte, wie die Aufgabe lautete, auch ein leichter Schlag/Verletzung sein können). Unerwartet überlebt der Grüne Ritter und Gawain macht sich natürlich Sorgen. König Artus hält ihn auch nicht zurück und so muss er sich auf die Reise zur grünen Kapelle machen. Hierbei erlebt er einige Abenteuer, denen mach auch gut folgen kann. Grundsätzlich geht es darum, dass er noch kein fertiger Ritter ist und durch Unsicherheit als auch fehlende Erfahrung geprägt ist – also kein wahrer „Held“ ist; zwar bemüht, aber doch auch immer auf seinen eigenen Vorteil aus ist. Später kommt er zu einem Schloss in der Nähe der Grünen Kapelle und wird von dem Hausherrn darauf hingewiesen, dass er ihm alles „wiedergeben“ solle, was er in seinem Hause während seines Aufenthalts erhalten habe. Es erfolgen Annäherungsversuche durch die Hausherrin (spielt auch die Prostituierte/Geliebte von Gawain) und er wiedersteht zunächst, gibt aber dann schlussendlich doch wieder nach (Sünde des Fleisches); erhält aber von der Hausherrin auch ein magisches Tuch, welches ihn vor Verletzungen und dem Tod bewahren soll. Gegenüber dem Hausherrn gibt er zwar die erhaltenen „Küsse“ wieder, aber gesteht nicht die Verführung und gibt auch nicht das erhaltene magische Tuch an. Er geht dann weiter zur Kapelle und trifft dort auf den zunächst leblosen Grünen Ritter, der zu Gawain’s Pech doch noch zum Leben erwacht und den Preis einfordert. Gawain stellt sich – zuckt aber immer wieder zurück – so wie es bei den erhaltenen Gaben in dem Schloss war, die er dem Hausherrn wie versprochen nicht offenbart hatte. Am Ende flüchtet er und kehrt zum Hofe König Artus zurück. Seiner Geliebten schenkt er ein Kind, nimmt es ihr aber direkt nach der Geburt zwangsweise für ein paar Taler weg, da er eine höherrangige Frau heiratet. König Artus stirbt und er wird dann auch sein Nachfolger. Er führt Kriege, ist aber mäßig erfolgreich und auch sein erwachsener Sohn stirbt dabei. Am Ende rebelliert das Volk und steht vor seinem Thronsaal. Er erkennt den Niedergang und zieht sich das magische Tuch vom Körper – als Folge fällt ihm der Kopf vom Rumpf ab. Dies bedeutet, dass er schon immer kopflos war und nur das getragene magische Tuch ihn vor dem verdienten(?) Tod bewahrt hat….

Plötzlich aber ist Gwain wieder in der Grünen Kapelle. Es erscheint so, als hätte er den Ort nie wirklich verlassen und die erlebte Geschichte nur eine Vision der Dinge war, die sich ereignet hätten. Nun stellt er sich der Situation und der Grüne Ritter bestätigt ihm auch, dass er fürwahr nun ritterlich sei. Ob der Kopf dann tatsächlich fällt, sieht man aber nicht. Im Abspann sieht man ein junges Mädchen, das mit der Krone des Königs spielt — so dass man davon ausgehen kann, dass er tatsächlich wohlbehalten zurückkehrte. In dem Original-Text kehrt Gawain auch zum Hof zurück und die anderen Ritter trugen zur Anerkennung seiner Taten ein gleichartiges Tuch wie er es tat auf seiner Reise zum wahren Ritter.

Good points: brilliant cinematography and captures the medieval "magical/ religious/ nature-oriented" mind-set with startling veracity.

Bad points: s-l-o-w and at times so pretentious you half expect it to disappear up its own... (ahem)

ATM I'm leaning toward the "good points" viewpoint, although I'm also waiting for a few more weeks to watch it again to see if the positive viewpoint lasts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jenseits des Massengeschmacks
Reviewed in Germany on February 5, 2024

Wir lernen Gawain kennen. Unser Protagonist ist Jemand, der sich gern trunken in einem Freudenhaus aufhält und stattdessen vorgibt in der Kirche gewesen zu sein. Seine Mutter – bei der es sich um die Magierin Morgan le Fay handeln mag – ist mit seiner Lebensweise alles andere als zufrieden. Daher beschwört sie den grünen Ritter durch Magie herbei. Der Film erklärt aber nie warum sie den grünen Ritter herbeiruft. Möglicherweise um ihren Sohn zu prüfen, um aus ihm einen besseren Mann zu machen.

Im Verlauf des Films begleiten wir Gawain auf seine Reise und wird vielen Prüfungen ausgesetzt sein.

Solche Filme, die etwas anders sind, rennen bei mir offenen Türen ein. Das wird mit Sicherheit nicht jedem so gehen. Ich habe mir die anderen Rezensionen nicht durchgelesen, kann mir aber vorstellen, dass viele es für ultralangweilig halten.

Schauspielerisch bekommen wir Dev Patel als Sir Gawain, der eine Wesensentwicklung durchmacht. Gawain ist für mich ein durchaus interessanter Charakter. Denn er ist kein Held, der hinauszieht, um sich mutig seinem Schicksal zu stellen. Sondern all das was er tut, tut er nur, weil er etwas repräsentieren möchte, was er nicht ist. Der Kampf gegen den grünen Ritter fand nur statt, da er den König und die restlichen Ritter beeindrucken wollte. Dev Patel die ideale Besetzung, da sein zaghaftes Schauspiel wunderbar für die Rolle passt.

Aber auch die Nebenrollen sind gut bestückt: Alicia Vikander, Joel Edgerton , Barry Keoghan und Ralph Ineson sind wirklich stark in ihren Rollen.

Tarkovskis Einflüsse sind hier nicht zu übersehen. So erwähnte der Regisseur, dass Andrei Rublev eine Inspirationsquelle gewesen ist und er bezeichnete dieses Meisterwerk als eines der besten Filme, die jemals gedreht worden sind.
