I will not be talking about the technical aspects of the film because all reviews agree that they are superb, as they are.
This review will touch on the plot and themes as some reviews here are cruel and say this is a boring film.
The Green Knight follows our hero from the time he is young man living in his community. He comes from wealth and seems to have a drinking problem. When one day a challenge arises and he accepts hence we have our story.
Our hero constantly battles himself and self doubt throughout the film. We also so many instances we see him do things not because it's his choice but because he's pushed. The final scene is all about him choosing to what HE wants to do. What HE believes is right. Nobility. The able to do what's right no matter what, nobility. What makes a Knight a Knight.

This movie has its issues as all do. But it has really good moments as well. It follows the lives of all these "birds" and how they have been "preyed on by society". That is what this movie is going for and it does a good job of it. This is a legitimate girl super hero movie and follows such as its script.
What is the most heroic thing a girl in society can do?
Break out of chains and doing what they believe in! People like Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman they all follow these kinds of acts. Overcoming horrific things and coming out at the other end
Think of this movie as a hyperbolic Female Super Hero movie and you'll enjoy it
7/10

Lenny Cooke follows the story of a former #1 ranked high school basketball player and his challenges and struggles while trying to get into the league. The documentary style film-making makes it very easy to follow and gives a unique perspective. It amazes me how much footage was filmed during the 2000s but the movie really comes together and leaves an imprint on its audience.
The story is impeccable and very interesting especially to basketball fans. This movie isn't necessarily groundbreaking but has good core elements. It is my least favorite Sadfie brothers film but it is a doc so they dont get to play with it as much.
Overall very entertaining and better than lots of films out there today 7/10
