Movies to watch, but not recommended

I haven't read the original, but I believe the original is better than the movie, because it has become a law that the movie cannot surpass the original.
The author of the original book is a woman, and the story of King Arthur's era is narrated from the perspective of Morgan, the heir to the sacrifice of the goddess of the lake, so the film is filled with women's sadness and sorrow. The first third of the film is a fatalistic argument, one of the three in the middle is full of accidental arguments, and the last third is an ancient Greek-style patriarchal tragedy. From start to finish, you're not watching a movie, as if you were slowly drinking a bitter drink. Don't watch it when you're in a bad mood, it makes people feel bad~~

I never like that when I watch a movie, characters are always influenced by emotions. Although I admit that human beings are emotional animals, in addition to emotions, people also have responsibilities. Undoubtedly, the emotions of this film are the main line of the development of the story. The emotions of the main characters are intertwined like a spider web, and their respective responsibilities and obligations have disappeared, so I give them three stars. All in all, the movie is good to watch, but not recommended.

    The knight and the queen are a pair of dog men and women, and the king and sister are very nice. The most disgusting thing is that incest. Oh, the British Saint Seiya and the Secret History of the Qing Palace...

    6/10. King Arthur's text that preaches chivalry turns into a struggle between nascent Christianity and pagan religions, Vivian forces her married sister to marry Usher to a compromise between goddess blood and secular kingship, but Arthur and Guinevere's freedom Love destroys the meaning of Christ's asceticism. In order to obtain God's forgiveness to be able to conceive, Arthur forced Arthur with tears to bring down the pagan dragon flag that his father Uther held high on the battlefield, abandoned the goddess belief, and finally threw the sword in the stone into the air. Shaped into a cross by lightning, the earth goddess represented by Avalon in the middle of the lake is hidden in the mist along with the somber bells of the Christ Church. The costumes are sloppy, and the special effects seem ridiculous now. The frequent switching of scenes (Morgan becomes a priest and Igreen misses his daughter Morgan, Arthur and Morgan have sex and bonfire dance scene switching) does not avoid the flattening of emotions. The witch Morgan re-turned the case into a poor woman who lost her father, incest, gave birth to a child and was married by mistake, and put King Arthur and his knights in a puppet position and victim in a religious struggle. Arthur seems to be dealing with women and forced to kill each other. The Fool, lost the legend of the grand adventure narrative.

The Mists of Avalon quotes

  • Morgaine: No-one knows the real story of the great King Arthur of Camelot. Most of what you think you know about Camelot, Gwenhwyfar, Lancelot and the evil sorceress known as Morgaine le Fay, is nothing but lies. I should know, for I am Morgaine le Fay, priestess of the Isle of Avalon, where the ancient religion of the Mother Goddess was born.

  • Igraine: But I'm married to the Duke of Cornwall, I've borne him a child! I will not betray him! I gave him my vows!

    Viviane: You gave them first to Avalon.
