Meagan wrote in her 5-star review for BD, “It’s a triumphant cinematic experience that captures every bit of the wonder that permeates the sword and sorcery films of the ‘80s while feeling wholly new and original. It’s as mesmerizing as it is unexpected, transporting you instantly on a beguiling, surreal journey that gets under your skin and refuses to leave.”

“From visionary filmmaker David Lowery comes a fresh and bold spin on a classic tale from the knights of the round table,” A24 explains The Green Knight.

“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.”
