This truly has to be the worst film ever, a bunch of five year olds would surely be able to write a better script, construct more realistic sets and props and act to a higher degree than the actors in this movie seem to have demonstrated and still be more understanding to historical accuracy!<br/><br/>And can someone please explain the wigs? Surely not adding to historical accuracy (for any century!) or even 1984! Added to this the poor soundtrack which seems to suggest that the director, at gunpoint, forced some lonely spinster from the organ of a church in Dunny-On-The-Wolds, Surrey to sit down and construct (with a timescale of half an hour) the film score on a budget of ￡5 and a pickled egg!<br/><br/>I can only describe it as one horrific car crash, so awful, you just stare in disbelief, knowing that you should look away and hoping that no one else will catch you looking! Poor Sean Connery, did he desperately need to pay the mortgage for another month?! Dire!

I thought the movie was entertaining. Sean Connery looked a little ridiculous as the green knight. I saw the movie as a love story between Sir Gawain, Miles O&#39;Keeffe, and the Lady of Lyonesse, Lila Kedrova. It was amusing and cute.

Well, opinion on this movie is universally, shall we say, not very kind (to put it mildly) with numerous critics who have all hastened to point out the many flaws present within that serve to destabilise the films overall structural coherence. As for myself, whilst certainly conceding the films many shortcomings, I have a real fondness for it!<br/><br/>Firstly the movie doesn&#39;t take itself at all seriously and is played throughout with it&#39;s tongue wedged very firmly in it&#39;s cheek. The overall look of the film is excellent with some great locations used for the shooting. In addition it boasts some real star casting including the always excellent Sean Connery and Peter Cushing. The costuming department excel here also with some really great suits of armour. OK, so there IS a problem with the way the film has been edited, thus rendering it disjointed and often bizarre, but who cares? It&#39;s never boring and is a harmless way to spend an hour and a half of pure escapism. <br/><br/>In short, it&#39;s great fun!
