I really don’t understand many people here, if you didn’t like the movie talk about it debate it not just giving thumbs down to everyone who liked the movie, I understand that everyone has different tastes and what many can find masterpiece others can find it not good but at least you can talk about it and discuss this is what community is about and all what you’re doing is just hating nothing more.

christopher nolan took one of the greatest epics ever written and displayed it on screen EPICLY!!! It not only felt huge and terrifying at times but also very emotional. All the build up of the journey really paid off in the ending, the last hour was incredible. I also felt like this was a continuation from themes brought up in Oppenheimer, where man might not know the damage he has caused in his own idea until after. And even though this is an…

Is movie good? Absolutely. Does it do the justice to Homer's Odyssey? I don't think so.

Monstrosity!As a Greek Homer deserved much better than a movie from Nolan.This movie constantly trying to impress.The choice of Helen of Troy only laughs can cause.It could have been a truly worthwhile, memorable project that would stand the test of time; instead, we're left with a mishmash of pointless theories and rambling that seem to be there just to pad out the story and deliberately create so much confusion that the viewer doesn't realize…

very good film. don't let far right chuds convince you that it isn't. Elliot Page does incredible, Lupita Nyongo is great and plays way less of a role in the film than culture war dipshits would lead you to believe. this movie isn't about the story, you've already read the odyssey. this movie is about the aesthetics and the spectacle, and they nail the "historic fantasy mixed with cool shit" vibe.

can't understand the good reviews on this one. The movie starts fine but switches to horror mode with the ugly cyclop (come on, it's 2026). It continues with bad CGI, dumb constant bass to make it "epic" (hello Hans Zimmer), loud useless noise, dropping some big actors for no reason, introduction to characters in a very poor way and again for no real reason (who cares about Ajax, come on), tries to make everything epic and awesome, but turns…
