Moviegoers are saying
Christopher Nolan's ambitious Greek epic adaptation divides audiences with its spectacular IMAX visuals and Ludwig Göransson's powerful score, though many struggle with the loud audio mix and slow pacing. While some hail it as a masterpiece that justifies its 3-hour runtime, others find the first half a 'snooze fest' despite praising the stellar cast including Matt Damon and Charlize Theron.

    Went in without expectations and enjoyed it a lot. I think this movie is needed in these times Added: I think this movie would be even better with lesser known actors

    The Odyssey

    They completely skipped the wind bag. Odysseus never exposes himself to Polyphemus. There’s a random second fight scene with made up enemies. The armor looked unrealistic. The gods are hardly shown expect Athena here and there. No Hermes either

    The Odyssey

    Problem with Nolan movies is that my expectations are now unreasonably high! Overall it was very good and didn’t feel like a long 3 hours, though it took me about 20 minutes to start to really get into it I sometimes got taken out of the moment when I’d see the star studded cast that was almost…

    Epic film. Excellent story, cast and visuals. Did not feel like a 3-hour film. You are drawn into the story. Action scenes are incredible - Especially in the 70mm format. Must see in an IMAX theater with that option. By far this is the movie of the year for 2026. …

    just saw it and I had no idea what to expect. The first hour and a half was a snooze fest. but then the second half finally picks up and it's a great ending

    So bad! Really a warrior king regrets fight like a little punk! Casting was putrid - completely takes you out of the period.
