The film

Odysseus, the legendary King of Ithaca, embarks on a long and perilous journey home following the Trojan War. Throughout his voyage, he is forced to confront the whims of gods, mythological monsters, and trials that stretch both his cunning and his humanity to the breaking point.

The Real Review

This one's getting a very split reaction, with the reception leaning slightly negative but mostly just mixed. People aren't sure what to make of Christopher Nolan's take on the epic, and Matt Damon's Odysseus gets a lot of the criticism for feeling miscast. Anne Hathaway's Penelope and Tom Holland's Telemachus land better with the few who mention them, but they aren't enough to save it. The only thing that really gets praised is the film's originality, though that's only noted by a couple of people.
