- The Green Knight offers up a unique -- and pretty weird -- take on the traditional hero's journey of so many fantasy stories. The movie centers on Sir Gawain, a young knight with aspirations of greatness who accepts a challenge from the visiting Green Knight: attempt to lay a blow on the Green Knight, and in a year's time, the Green Knight will revisit that blow on him.
Weird setup? Sure, but it gets even weirder. This is a story with ghosts, hallucinations, talking foxes, giants, and pure nightmare fuel, so it's pretty easy to get lost in the story as it unfolds. The ending is all the stranger, but if you got lost, don't worry. Here's a look at the ending of The Green Knight explained.

You guys left out how he didn't actually die at the end... the Green Knight smirks when he says "off with your head" because it was all a game, to get him to prepare to become a better man. He could only live once he stopped fearing death
(The after credits scene with the little girl putting on he crown implies he lives, becomes king and has a daughter, but doesn't crave power as he does in the other vision)
Yep. He had proven himself and the Green Knight let him go. Gawain learned from his experiences and went on to be a honorable knight and king.
New perspective and I can't believe I missed the end!!! But thanks for letting us know!
@@aferrera99 Think Story has a good breakdown of everything on their channel as well.
I missed that I was so glad it was over I left when the credits started.
Oh I didn’t even know there was an after credit scene. Well shoot.
There's a scene in the beginning with Gawain rolling around on the floor/dirt saying he's not ready. That's for shadowing how the mission ahead is a game constructed by his mother in order to prepare him for the throne. King Arthur even has knowledge of what's going on and tells him that it's just a game. The whimsical nature with how the Green Knight says now off with your head, as well as the knowledge that Gawain survives in the original poem... You can see that this was an orchestration to prepare him for a knighthood/king hood. There is also a little girl in the end credits who puts on the crown. There would not be a little girl with dark hair like that to put the crown on if Gawain was dead.
In the traditional poem, the Green Knight is also his host. The host/Green Knight scars his neck because he failed to reciprocate their game, but otherwise lets him live, teaching him a lesson of honor.
If Gawain dies at the Green Knight's hand, he has learned nothing and died for nothing. Arthur dies without an heir and the kingdom falls into chaos. His mother has led him to a death that robs her son of the throne. This is a very existential ending that would not have played well with Medieval audiences.
You know he lives also because the last part of the poem, the Green Knight says "upon the completion of the game we shall part ways as friends". I believe just the act of accepting death, was enough to restore his honor.
I'm not sure that line guarantees that he lives. TGK coud just mean that Gawain will thank him for the posthumous honor that his axe will bring when he takes off his head. The parting coud be akin to "till death do we part", it doesn't necessitate that both parties survived. I think like most films based on a myth, the director never intended to provide the audience with a definitive outcome.
Like Morpheus always said...There's a difference between KNOWING the path and WALKING the path...
So then mr. Anderson takes the red pill.
Why does the green knight looks so recognizable?!?! That’s BURGER KING!!!
What parts we got to see of him 😅
🤣😂
Looks like an adult Groot.
@@annstillwell730 literally doing a presentation on this tomorrow and I have a picture of Groot in it on my slide about the Green Knight
If you familiarize yourself with the original Arthurian legend , there’s lots of room for speculation
He doesn't die. What dies is his old way of thinking of how to be a knight. To empty your mind as if it is a cup full of crappy ideas, dumping it and letting the new inward.
YES! Gawain has a spiritual rebirth, from callow youth to mature knight. When medieval knighthoods were granted, knights would spend the previous night in prayer, to signify their willingness to ascend to a higher state of Being. This film tells of the necessary quest of a teenager who doesn't know how to become a mature man on his own.
@@cathryncampbell8555 And it was orchestrated by his mother. Why would his mother send a monster to kill her son? Clearly, the ritual her mother and friends made at the beginning of the movie was to summon the green knight.
@@rafaelstv Yes! The Green Knight starts Gawain's initiation into knighthood/maturity -- at the behest of Gawain's mother. (Mother Knows Best. )
Lol no, in this version Gawain dies; the director has been very explicit about it. In the original lore he lives. It’s different
Did anyone see the post credit scene??? It ties it all together. It's so frustrating to see so many reviewers skip right over it.
What happened
@@DayHunch The Green Knight never Kilss Gawain, he goes back home and becomes an honourable king, and ends up having a daughter.
@@sheikhtahmid7799 its left up to interpretation . We just see the girl take his crown which could also imply he's dead
@@sheikhtahmid7799 nope, that's just your assumption. the little girl puts her dad's crown on HER head, which seems to be like she will be the queen since her dad died...
Gawain isn’t killed by The Green Knight, he praises him for upholding his knightly vows by giving him the girdle his wife-yea, it’s her-to him, and releases him with a symbolic blow to his neck; as all Gawain gave him a year ago was a strike to the neck, he didn’t kill him.
He is dead, trust me. Even the director said it in interview.
@@cezaroptimusii.3795 I’m talking about in the actual story. This kinda leaves it open ended.
@@cezaroptimusii.3795 What he's saying is that's not true to the actual story.
@@cezaroptimusii.3795 No, he didn't. The end is up for interpretation according to the director, I just read a variety interview with him. But is pretty clear to me that Gawain did not die.
@@cezaroptimusii.3795 end credits theirs a couple of seconds scene with a child lifting up a crown, its a girl "his daughter". He lived to become the king.
It’s better to die the hero than to live long enough to see yourself become the villain.
they made a whole movie out of it
Rudy Giuliani
No, because you're dead.
Can't wait for someone to talk about the post credit scene and it's meaning.
What's in the post-credits scene?
Does anyone else think the Green Knight in the chapel might have been Arthur instead of the lord? He wipes Gawain's face like Arthur and says "Well done, MY knight," I'm pretty sure. Plus, Arthur spoke to Gawain's mother before he left on the journey, so I think he's in on it in this version. At the least, they had to be making some parallel to Arthur at the end.
@David Harris really??
@David Harris then again, I feel like in this iteration the lord is also supposed to be king Arthur, Arthur and Gawain's mother are related, the movie already indicates that the old woman that lives with the lord is Gawain's mother, which would make sense for the lord to be King Arthur, plus he gives an indication to gawain that the whole thing is just a game, almost as though he set it up.
I just watched it and the green knight looks like Arthur. I thought it was the work of Arthur, his mother, and merlin. I thought it was a test to see if he was worthy of becoming king. That's why I came for a ending explained because I thought they would say Arthur was the green knight. Funny enough I never watch looper because they usually drag out a 2 minute explanation but this was the only ending explained on this movie that wasn't 30 mins or longer. There's even a explanation on Novum that is 1 hour 46 mins long and the movie is only 2 hours 11 mins so that is jist absurd for it to be that long.
In the poem he was the lord but here it seems clearly he was Arthur. The look of disappointment when he chops the head off the green knight and the mirroring of how how he touches his face etc
As I see the film's meaning, it's all about Gawain's mother's aka Morgan le Fay's plotting to make her son the new ruler of Camelot. She summons the Green Knight in order for her son to challenge him and prove himself as a knight in the eyes of the King, gives him the magical sash (two times actually, first time herself and second time as or through the enigmatic Lady, the fellow witch) assuming by that fact that he will flee from the Green Knight anyway and will say to the King that he defeated the Knight, just as the Fox (which is also Morgan in disguise) suggests him to do. Thus, we see the alternative ending, conjured by Morgan, where we see her scheming bearing fruits and her son first becoming the knight and then succeeding Arthur as the king. But that scheming, brought about by foul, pagan magic, is come undone at the end and Gawain's ruling ends in a great tragedy for everyone in Camelot. But in actuality, Gawain defies his mother and her magic at the very end, removes the magic sash and allows the Green Knight to behead him, thus proving himself as a true knight, but failing his mother's wicked ambitions for himself at the same time.
The fox is not his mother. It said so itself that it is the same as the green light. The fox was a friend.
He would have become king anyway. Arthur has no heir, except for the missing Mordred. Guinevere never bore him a child. Gawain is his sister's son, so his closest living heir in Camelot.
Yeah, part way through that first ending, I started to realize that we were into Last Temptation of Christ territory, and that we were watching a hypothetical future of what would happen if he ran away.
Yes. I thought the exact same thing. A couple scenes in I was like "this is the Last Temptation of Christ....."
I think he's spared. Any filmmaker worth the name isn't going to allow the actor playing GK to make a pointing gesture. It could be Gawain's head GK is pointing at but it seems to me he's pointing behind him. Toward home. "Now...off (leave) with your head."
I am surprised by how so many people can miss what seems obvious to me. Green is the color of envy. Green is also the color of the natural world. To go against ones honor or natural state is to live a life unfulfilled and to wonder in envy of what could have been
"green is what lust leaves behind" that message stuck to me throughout the rest of the movie. Made the green wonder how the green knight came to be.
Green can also be "Naive", "Gullible", "New", "Novice".
They make it pretty obvious that the Green Knight is part of nature. He looks like an Ent. He slumbers all year in a moss covered chapel with a spring running through it. The Scavenger calls the forest "the Green Chapel".
Another interpretation is that Gawain dies in the forest, starving from being bound. His skeletonized remains are all that are left of him, just as the Scavenger foretold.
The rest of the story is the tale that is spun in Camelot about his adventures when he fails to return.
Just got back from watching this and honestly I liked it allot. Allot of bad reviews but hey it's an A24 film did you not expect it to be weird.
Gawain doesn't die at the end of the movie, he finds his courage...
I would’ve like the movie a lot more if the sequences with the Lord and his wife were scarier.
the "off with your head " line at the end was off with your "old" head welcome to manhood and leaving the dynnn. duuuu. hyve. mynd
Very good clearifying stuff!
I would have chopped the very edge branch when he offered his head(pause) then a year later would be a hero who returned with a haircut
You’re definitely playing 5d chess out here
But why did the mother summoned the green knight? Because she wanted to bring King Arthur down? And didn't she expect her son to Challenge the Knight so she tried to protect him in the form of the fox and the blind Woman?
It was to get him to become a better man. He had to live all of those trials and willingly give up his life to learn true courage. He doesn't really die at the end, as implied by the little girl in the after credits scene
The fox thing was confusing, yeah
Morgan le fey in the Arthurian lore tries to take the crown from King Arthur. I believe that she expected him to take it and gave him the green belt so that he would be protected and be able to take the crown in the future. Mirroring what happened in his vision originally. When he takes the belt off he becomes honorable and being able to become a better man and future king
@@abbyc7815 the Fox was Winifred
does anyone know why the lord kisses Gawain? it was the only thing that really confused me, especially since it’s played out very differently in the poem.
In the poem there's both hetero and homosexual tension with the lady and the lord. They explore it a bit further to visit different kinds of potential temptation not to complete challenge.
it's to give the kiss of his wife back
@@trianamitsanas7299 that’s how it is in the poem, but in the movie it’s the lord who gives the kiss, not Gawain
The lord tells gawain to give him anything back that the house gives him. The wife kisses gawain and the lord knows this as he kisses him to “get it back” as he asked
@@dannycookieguy5992 Lord says "he can take it", so he took it with that kiss.
So if Gawain had just gently tapped the knight on his neck with the back of his axe, would the green knight have done the same in the end??
Yes. At the very beginning of the movie the Green Knight even states that the strike “Whether it be a scratch on the cheek or a strike to the neck” he would return the blow. So Gawain could have scratched him and that would have been it, but he didn’t want to be humble.
@@Caedus696 well yea, that wouldnt result in much of a tale though :D I scratched him then he scratched me back, end of tale. :'D
@@Caedus696 I don't know if you have answers to my questions but let me put this here in table anyway.
Didn't he know he is going to die when he meet The Green Knight?
And why did the lady said 'You are no Knight' after tempting him?
What's with the story of fox and the spirit who told him to bring the skull? How is it connected?
@@leroy9419 The entire movie was about Gawain trying to be a knight and upholding the codes of chivalry, which he fails in badly for some parts. He goes to the green knight because a knight always keeps his word. The bandits in the woods a test of courage in which he almost fails. The ghost girl was a test of selflessness. A knight helps those in need because it is righteous, but he asks for payment which is why she had a bad reaction to it. The lady in the manor was a test of virtue, he failed in that as well letting her get sexual with him. The fox I think was just sent by his mother to watch over him in the wilderness since this whole thing seemed to be a scheme by her to make him find his courage and better traits.
@@leroy9419 - He wants to honor his word as to be a real knight, but he was afraid of dying that's why he asks the gk is there more to this?.. hoping its just a test or whatever. It is just a test but he needed to show real courage and he did when he took off the girdle.
- Because he nutted too fast.
- the fox and the spirit are just symbolic representations and character growth. I dont know if they are present in the original literature. Its the story in the castle that was important.
Great flick!
Glad you enjoyed it!
So happy I watched this cause that movie lost me
I'm here to find out about the movie they made with the Burger King King in it.
"Better to burn out than to fade away"
Can be a little slow at times but still a good movie. Acting was fantastic and the visuals were spectacular. I do feel the pacing could have been faster but I can see what the director was aiming for when looking at it through a poet's perspective which can alienate some people due to their taste for an action sequence every 15 minutes. I give it a 7.5/10.
Super slow, the movie needed editing, too many scenes lingered an extra 5 minutes. The ending didn't need explanation, most of the rest of the movie did.
I agree with the second poster, there were scenes that literally dragged forever. You don't need fight scenes, you don't need epic wars or battles, but you also don't need people hanging on each other for no reason for several minutes at a time. There were whole blocks of this movie that did nothing for the story of the plot other than to drag it out into a 2-hour movie, this could have been half the run time cutting out and or halving many of those dead points and you would have shown the same movie
Why didn’t Gawan just gently cut his cheek?
I feel.. to reward his eventual bravery and knock the melancholy off this too obvious ending - if written - the final line would be "Off!....with your head". It's a command.
I need answers on the scene with the Giants. I didn’t quite get why they were there and what the meaning behind that scene was. I did think it was really cool but yeah… don’t understand the meaning behind it.
He was just high on mushrooms
I've been interested in this movie for a while so I might give it a watch
It was very bad i saw it just recently. Watch it online for free on a site
meh, don't bother.... nothing special
I enjoyed watching The Green Night on Amazon Prime
I'd rather see them bring back the BBC version of Merlin
Yep I'm going to see it
What about the little girl after the credits?
Does anyone have an explanation for the scene with the giants? None of the articles I've read or videos I've watched so far have even mentioned it and it was the only part that I didn't get.
that is the "ONLY" part you didn't understand in the movie?! lol.... the whole movie is completely insane - besides the message of bravery and doing what is right - the beheaded woman, his mom being a witch and summoning the green knight, then the origin of the knight himself, the identity of the fox, how is the knight so easily defeated by 2 women in the forest, why when he runs away abandons his sword, does he die at the end or not, etc......
I have read that in some versions of the old medieval poem, he sees giants in the mountains of Wales while on his quest
The ending of a film explained?
Seriously?
Why would a well made film need to be explained?
Watch the original movie called sword of the valiant. Sean Connery played the green knight!
I was just about to say that....
The old movie is pretty bad though. I'm so glad we finally got a new version of the story
Why did Gawain’s mother summon The Green Knight?
To give him a reason to grow up. He was acting like an irresponsible brat early in the film, and not a heir to the throne (noting that he was in line due to Arthur having no children, and Gawain was his nephew). I reference this in a separate comment in this section.
@@rhythmoriented so in order to make him a responsible heir to the throne, she has him killed?
@@chiron3719 not necessarily. We don’t see the cut.
@@chiron3719 He doesn't die. The final line of the movie is delivered as almost a 'congratulations, you passed' kind of way. The game was over.
@@chiron3719 there's an extra scene after the credits. He becomes a better man, knight and king.
....but he doesn't die does he,. no. He lives.
Why didn't Gawain's mother use magic/witch craft during that Siege tho not for nothing? lol
Cause that was probably her ghost. She wasn’t aged but everyone else was. Symbolizing that her spirt was with him but even in the end it could do nothing.
BACKGROUND MUSIC, WHY?
It's actually quite a good movie with a good story and good acting.
No
The acting is good, the CGI was pretty good, and the sets were fantastic... But the movie itself left much to be desired story-wise
@@Darthalas agreed on all points
Thanks! This confirmed that I understood the movie perfectly well 😏
This video needs an update. The after credit scene changes the ending described here.
huh... so, if the movie goes ahead and spells it out for you, why is this guy having to go out and spell it out for us? Seems like its pretty heavy handed, kind of like getting slapped across the face with a gantlet full of coins.
Your Bgm is TOO LOUD!!!
Ok so the ending was basically what I thought it would be in the first place...doesn't make the ending more appealing tho. I liked the movie all in all because it was different then the typical fantasy telling and it had extraordinary beautiful set pieces and camera work in my opinion I really liked the acting too but the end left me with a bitter taste in my mouth so to speak because yeah it's consequentially the right ending for him but it's too bad they didn't show us a "way out" of this situation and generally speaking showing us the viewers a way on how to find peace and fulfillment even when the odds are against us and we are not as great as we think we are. It's a pity because now we were left with a) live a life that is extremely miserable or b) die immediately which are both very frustrating outcomes lol. So I don't know if frustration as the last emotion your viewer takes out of this movie is the best idea. But yeah at least it's an emotion that's better than overall disappointment that's for sure too.
The casting for medieval Europe seems spot on lol
I hope you don't really think people have been saying "mid evil" all this time.
Not questions it’s should say we will tell you what we thought.
_But did he die?_
Nah the Knight points in the direction of the entrance and jokingly says to the main character “now, off with your head”. He’s also smiling when he says it.
no.
This story is actually about a soy boy who needs his mom to do everything for him: from summoning the green knight to giving him protection. She’s always there checking in on him and he is a coward all the way through because he needs his mom.
Only after he detaches from his moms boob (the sash) does he actually then become a “man”.
“Take that n**** bitch off the plane” - Green Knight
You're an excellent writer.
Seems more like this is summary than an explanation.
did u notice a bear on the hill?
they clearly showed he died after he was left alone by scavangers. what was that about ?
That was one possible future
This movie is so bad at first untill you fully understand it. i know its based on an old story but the film could do a better job of explaining the story. Beautiful cinematography though.
Who was that old creepy lady at the lord's house?
probably Gawen's mom, she watches him every moves, in any disguises.
It was his mother
the movie undermines itself in the first 15minutes by establishing its lead character to be a cretin. It's very hard to care after that, especially since there is no real redemption arc
He seems like Bollywood's Abhishek Bachchan 🥵
tanx yo
Fell asleep. During the movie. Not this video.
I'm crying ..me and my girl did too!😭😭
I stayed awake, but it was a challenge. The movie would've worked better at 90 minutes. So many scenes just go on with nothing happening. And then just jump to the next long uneventful scene.
@@ThomB1031 I liked the movie, but this! 😭😭
@@cplova333 it's a shame too... there were interesting scenes were a lot of story happened in a minute, but they came and went so quick in the void that you didn't get to enjoy them. The movie lingered at the wrong moments in my opinion.
this did not explain much lol... i expected some philosophical, mystical, maybe even religious, deep explanation
and if anyone missed it. the green knight at the end who touches Gawen's face actually is his mother in disguise.
thanks for just describing the plot and not adding anything helpful 🙂
I don't understand why Gwane (sp?) Didn't just scratch the Green Knight's cheek.
Because it would have been seen by Arthur and the knights as the choice of a coward, scared to risk his life which is unacceptable for a knight. At least that’s my guess.
because that wouldn't result in much of a tale now would it? "I scratch him and then he scratched me back. End of story"
Because he was immature and at that point had no stories to tell, so he took this as an opportunity to make something of himself in front of King Arthur and his knights.
Hmm l thought it was a early version of the green lantern . Let down
I WILL UNEXPLain it
Wow so he .....wanted to be king and behaded okkk
I just watched this movie n what the hell
It's a direct remake of the Sean Connery film from the 80's
Ey-yo
The movie's previews looked cool! I hated this.
Having just left the movie theater I feel your pain dude... I was very much looking forward to this movie
The explanation is way much shallow.... "off with your head"??
It was a snooze fest.
I concur, I'm familiar with the source material and I loved the set pieces but throughout the entire movie I just kept daydreaming and coming up with ideas for better movies.....
@@Darthalas Please become a writer/director and prove your words. Looking forward to seeing your better ideas onscreen.
@@rondempesmeier1845 oh I get the funding for them and it is happening....but what is it that you think I need to prove to you? I mean, did you go to the theater to see the movie? What was the audience like? What in your opinion made this a "good"movie? Is it winning awards? Is this best picture of the year? The movie still new and so far all I've seen are a bunch of snooty critics behaving like snooty art enthusiasts and pushing the rating up but have you seen the audience rating on rotten tomatoes? The movie is still new and you will see it go down in freshness too I can guarantee it...
@@Darthalas I went yesterday. The movie drew me in to this fantastic world filled with beauty and menace. I thought Patel's performance was excellent and would recommend this film to anyone who prefers a thoughtful, atmospheric experience.
@@rondempesmeier1845 well we were the same mind on that account as I said I enjoyed what they did with the background, and the set pieces were fantastic. And Patel really showed off some excellent chops, I truly believe he was the best thing in that movie, despite some misgivings going in I can't think of anybody that would have done that role better. I just wish as much thought was put into the rest of the movie.
Why are most of A24 movies so weird and have the strangest endings? This movie was good as far as cinematography, music and costuming. Acting was good too. But story really dragged. I was like please let's move along already. And from the very beginning I knew from him chopping the Green Knight's head off made him dishonorable and therefore will never be a knight. I also do not believe he should be honored for going to have his own head chopped off. There's too many people that do evil things then expect forgiveness after the damage is done without any consequences. It's like you doing something evil and then saying ok now that I got that out of my system I will be good now. Not good. As the movie went on, almost everything he was doing showed how he was not a good person and I was just waiting til he got what he deserved already. In the end I was satisfied with him ending up a fake and losing his kingdom and everything but they had to do a whole "Last Temptation of Christ" thing where it was just what his life would have been if he ran away and then deciding to accept his head getting chopped off. Sorry but I hated that ending. I will definitely not watch this movie again and I do not recommend anyone to watch it.
A story in need to be told but never worth to be listened to. Avoid this mess.
I'm making it my life's mission, to let everybody know how boring this movie was so nobody has to go through the pain I went through in theaters
Boring movie, 2 hours wasted on this rubbish.
God, the story was so boring. I had no idea what i was watching!
Such a let down this movie.
This movie was horrible worst I’ve seen in years
Boring and pointless AF
You're just not sensitive enough to pick up the detail. This movie is not bad, its just not for you. You have a different type of brain that has different interests.
Glad I didnt waist my money on this movie.
Why is Indian guy in every movie?
Do you mean an Indian guy in general or this Indian guy? Because I haven't seen a whole lot of Indians in 99% of the movies that are made here in the West, and if it's this guy well he's a popular actor so get over it. It's like saying why does Samuel l Jackson have to be in every movie... People like him
Hes british
@@j.d.s8942 Okay, so English lesson for those of you who keep saying this.... When we say Indian we mean he is of Indian descent, in regards to his acting and who he is, we are referring to his ethnicity and his race NOT his nationality. Great Britain is an empire, just like France and the USA and China. That means they are multi-religious multi-ethnic multicultural. British is his nationality. That is why here in the United States we have so many different labels for people, we are all still Americans, but that guy's black that guy's White, that person's African-American that person's Hispanic or Latino
@@j.d.s8942 pay attention to the conversations going on in here.... People are mad about his skin color, which is the way it is because he is of Indian descent, they are mad because he doesn't look like they think a good person from Great Britain should look playing a Knight from a story from a long long time ago.... Goodness if you spent more time actually reading and paying attention instead of trying to correct people you might learn something
@@j.d.s8942 "the son of Anita, a care worker, and Raju, an IT consultant.[2][10] His parents are Gujarati Indian Hindus,[11] though they were both born in Nairobi, Kenya, where there is a significant Indian community" by your logic we should be referring to his parents, in every circumstance always, as Africans and never as Indians! Oh and here is the rest of the sentence on Wikipedia " ,where there is a significant Indian community; "
Don't tell me about judging people by their skin color, I'm a black guy in the United States
why do they always race swap classical European characters? achilles, robin hood, etc. i dont understand this need to force "diversity" into everything european.
Probably because everybody's white...and diversity ain't so bad
@@Carlos-dl8ui so it would be fine to have a white guy play an african folk hero then for the sake of sacred diversity?
@@dislikebutton9571 first off, it would be nice just to have an African folk hero be done. Please point out a big budget movie done with an African folk hero. Second, why do you seem to think that people were not mixing and matching throughout history, where do you get that European automatically means blonde hair and blue eyes? You do realize that the Khans ruled all the way in the Ukraine and their descendants were still in power when Catherine the Great sat the throne in Russia. Not to mention the centuries of rulership by dark skin people in Spain and Portugal, who also mixed with the people a hop skipping a jump next door that we know of as France and England. Here in the United States they shy away from this history but I assure you I have been to Portugal and their museums where they are very proud of men that look like they are straight African that built cities there many many centuries ago. And thirdly, did you see the movie? I too thought it was a very interesting cast choice but the darn portraits they did of him, which were basically pictures, look strikingly white and a lot of ancient portraits look just like the ones they did. You ever check out some Greek stuff? A lot of those guys were not white guys I hate to tell you
@@Darthalas why should i point out a big budget african folk hero movie to you when i never claimed they existed in the first place? it was clearly just a hypothetical. you are really throwing a lot of words in my mouth about things i never said, i dont know who you are arguing with but it clearly isnt me.
@@Darthalas also the actor is clearly of east indian race, not european. you need to be very blinded by politics to see anything otherwise.

Get the best actor for the job. Period.
Dev Patel was great!
Turned out as a great portrayal! Loved it
@@travisspazz1624 absolute garbage take.
@@MasterZensei Just how low IQ do I have to be to convince myself without breaking immersion that someone who is clearly from Southern Asia is actually Celt?
This movie just wasn't good.. I fully understood this movie... But it wasn't good in any way. Lazy writing, lackluster action, And a weak ending.
Why not cast someone that actually looks like a Celt. What’s the point of this trash decision not to represent the celts as celts. Incredibly disrespectful to make millions hijacking a people’s culture and mythology but then deciding to write the people that created said mythology out of the cast. Deplorable and exploitative.
exactly
this movie is the worst thing ive ever seen.. I was watching it and we were all laughing and half the cinema left
