Nolan strips the gods out of The Odyssey entirely. Only goddesses show up, and then only as PTSD hallucinations. Nolan’s apologists will say that he did this because he was going for a more “grounded” film. Oh okay. So then why does Ancient Greece have the demographic makeup of Los Angeles circa 2026? Why is there a tiny little woman running around pretending to be a dude? Why is there an Asian guy delivering the line “we’re Greeks from Ithaca”? Grounded? Really? Grounded in what? The apologists are letting Nolan have his cake and eat it too, like always.

And then Christopher Nolan, the genius, gave us Matt Damon "pew pew"ing with the bow, shooting it rapid-fire like it was a toy for children, while throwing in a strained face because…ACTING.

Some of you weren't obsessed with greek mythology as a kid and it shows.

[Clementine♡ @queerboyclem]

the concept of makeup and design from the 2000s being better than what we’re getting in 2026…

[dkmbookworm @dkmbookworm]

The thing that might actually make me hate this film isn’t the film itself but Nolan’s condescending fucking fans

[Peachy Keenan @KeenanPeachy]

Just watched Dunkirk for the first time, loved it.

I couldn't help noticing Nolan used zero diversity casting.

1940s English people looked like they would have looked.

2017 was a long time ago I guess.

if you’ve ever worked in open floorplan, this is basically the fuckin four seasons

"Our Bronze Age is collapsing."

"What are we, some kind of Sea People?"

Christopher Nolan writes his scripts like a first-year undergrad trying to reach the 2000-word count for an assignment due the next morning.

Is Rotten Tomatoes not allowing & deleting bad reviews of Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey?!

I’ve tried to leave a review two different times now since seeing the movie on Thursday night.

Other users are reporting that their reviews got deleted…

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

The Odyssey is the kind of movie where a character in the Bronze Age actually says “the Age of Bronze is ending.” The dialogue is like this throughout. You cannot have genuinely shit dialogue in a “masterpiece” film.

Modi was bombing a nuclear armed country in broad daylight and people think Samosa eating Dipke will bother him.

[Trutown @Trutown]

“Nolan explicitly changes xenia or "Zeus' law" into Christ's "golden rule," do unto others as you would have them do unto you—which is, of course, not xenia, and undermines the historic uniqueness of Christ's moral teaching.”

[Paulo Costa @BorrachinhaMMA]

This trend where every movie has to feature people of all races—even historical films set in places where only one race existed—is the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen in cinema.

[Metatron @pureMetatron]

Odysseus saying “our age of bronze is collapsing” was probably the stupidest line in the entire movie.
It would be like a Medieval man saying “the Middle Ages are almost over”.
Middle of what?
It’s the PRESENT to them!!!

[Keith Woods @KeithWoodsYT]

Look how vibrant the behind the scenes footage looks compared to the film's sterile presentation. You go from the recognisable deep blues of the Meditteranean to multiple shades of grey. Baffling.

[Cris @crisbadaro]

O fato de que tanto Oppenheimer quanto A Odisseia serem filmes sobre homens arrependidos com o mal que eles soltaram no mundo é prova que o Nolan se arrepende de ter revivido a onda de filme de super herói

[Angelo Plume @poxesfoxes]

Look at Damon's "grimace" from the "effort" !!!

Truly one of the actors of his time.

[Keith Woods @KeithWoodsYT]

Nolan is so determined to fit everything into his post-Catholic morality that he took the Greek concept of xenia, a reciprocal guest-host relationship among civilised people, and universalised it into a simple "be kind" golden rule and made that the central message of his adaptation of The Odyssey.

He's so intolerant of anything alien in the source material that he makes Odysseus of all people a traumatised war veteran processing guilt for Troy.

[Endymion @EndymionYT]

>Villager is speaking in fluent Greek
>Indian guy kneels down & says in English
>”We’re Greeks from Ithaca”

Come on man. Cattle slop, they’re making fun of Greek people in this Odyssey movie, actual humiliation ritual

All three should be zero minutes.
