Your dad’s chivalric romance, this is not;
For Lowery’s made a dark and wondrous tale,
That one year wait was worth it, yes indeed.
The epic scope is un-A24.
That cinematography makes me drool.
Patel makes for a handsome Sir Gawain.
Just don’t expect a merry tale, oh no;
There’s gore and sex, that’s why it’s rated R.
So just know what you’re getting into, yes.
But that’s not all there is, because behind
The classic trials and tribulations, thus,
Lies an illuminating perspective
The hero’s journey, yes, Lowery does discuss
It’s beautiful, and dark, and reflective
The grade, therefore: (99 words/A PLUS)
