Not sure what is wrong

What am I missing here?

products/views.py
import datetime

from django.db.models import Q
from django.shortcuts import render, get_object_or_404

from . import models


def good_reviews(request):
    reviews = models.Review.objects.filter(rating__gte=3)
    return render(request, 'products/reviews.html', {'reviews': reviews})


def recent_reviews(request):
    six_months_ago = datetime.datetime.today() - datetime.timedelta(days=180)
    reviews = models.Review.objects.exclude(created_at__lt=six_months_ago)
    return render(request, 'products/reviews.html', {'reviews': reviews})


def product_detail(request, pk):
    product = get_object_or_404(models.Product, pk=pk)
    four_weeks_ago = datetime.datetime.today() - datetime.timedelta(weeks=4)
    reviews = product.review_set.order_by('-created_at').filter(Q(created_at__lt=four_weeks_ago)|Q(rating__gte=8))
    return render(request, 'products/product_detail.html', {'product': product, 'reviews': reviews})

You are very close. Comparing datetimes can seem backwards. The challenge is looking for review in the last 4 weeks. When comparing to four_weeks_ago, you want datetime objects that are newer, which means they have a more recent datetime value. datetime object value increases as they get newer (and time moves forward). So you want dates greater than or equal to four_weeks_ago this means using Q(created_at__gte=four_weeks_ago)
