Customer Reviews of Guinevere
Visually distracting As much as I wanted to be swept away into this story, I couldn't get past Guinevere with short soccer mom hair (!) and the yarn "chain mail" sweaters. Not to mention the poor sound quality. Sure, maybe they had a small budget, but you see better costumes at any Ren-faire...you'd think some arrangement could have been made. I can't recommend this film.
Guinevere
At first I thought the movie rather dull. Maybe it was the fact that I never read indepth abouth King Arthur. I thought Guinevere to be to tomboyish. I thought Noah Wyle did a wonderful job as Lancelot. But that was all that I thought was good.
EXCEPT FOR THE STORYLINE, IT'S SO ENCHANTING, SPELLBOUND
As an Asian, I have to admit that I knew barely nothing about Arthurian legend. And this " Guinevere " story could be way off traditional. The whole story puzzles me. It's the major flaw. How come Morgan LeFay adopted Lancelot and be the mentor of Guin? Later she commit incest with her half brother, Arthur. In great torment Guin gave birth to a baby, then send her away, to keep her from Morgan's witch power. ( And revenge Arthur, maybe? ). Where's the baby girl? Certainly Merlin has mention of her, once. And all the people seems to forget such a tragedy had ever happened? Arthur is a coward, even not qualify to be a man. Morgan can never dominate Lancelot's will, he's a freeman of his own. Guin was never a feminist as she claimed herself to be. She should follow her heart, never ranaway from Lancelot at first place. ( She's pretty young, not ready for accept a man, yet? ). Nobility heart is more important than nobility birth. Lancelot watch over her through an unhappily marriage. Neglect the fact that she has gave birth of another man's child. Always waiting for her to turn back. Arthur sent Lancelot to fight a unwinning battle, wish him never return, so menacing evil. When two lovers finally meet again, Guin ask Lancelot to rescue Arthur from tyrant. Gave up the great opportunity to runaway with him. Always give, ask for no reward. What a Valentine! He answers her plea, to save Arthur and disappear from her life, forever. A sentimental lament. She never deserves a noble-minded man like Lancelot. Somehow Sheryl Lee wasn't quite right as the heroine. ( I can't tell where went wrong? ). At least she's not a good match for Noah Wyle. That's how I felt.
I rate it 5 stars though actually it's not perfect, compare with those thought-provoking, life-inspiring films. Quite magnificent as a TV-Movie. A beautiful castle above in the middle of a lake. Morning fog in the woods. The grand scenery of Lithuania. Make you really crave for go back to medieval age, to live through that time. And the romantic ancient Celtic music, so breathtaking, enthralling chanting. How come Johnny Harris never release a soundtrack? You can also see cute Noah Wyle, while he was a newcomer, in his early twenties. Though he's only a supporting role, shining gem of the whole film. ( I wasn't his fan, till I watch this). All in all, It's charming and irresistible, a dream worth to buy.
