The Odyssey comes out today and here's what you need to know before you go see the movie.

It's Nolan's take on Homer's ancient epic — the one about Odysseus (Matt Damon) trying to get home to Ithaca after ten brutal years lost at sea following the Trojan War. The film zeroes in on the moments you probably already know if you read this in school: him outsmarting the cyclops Polyphemus, gritting through the sirens' song without giving in, and finally breaking free of Calypso (Charlize Theron), the nymph who keeps him trapped on her island for years.

But it's not just Odysseus's story. Back home, his wife Penelope (Anne Hathaway) is dealing with her own mess — a house full of suitors, led by the genuinely awful Antinous (Robert Pattinson), all circling the throne like they've already decided Odysseus isn't coming back. And then there's Telemachus, his son, all grown up now and out looking for the father he barely remembers.

Christopher Nolan also has a well-known aversion to CGI. As a result, he dragged the entire crew across six countries — Greece, Italy, Scotland, Morocco, Iceland, Malta — just to find real places that looked ancient enough to pass for the Mediterranean world the story's set in.

He was just as particular about Damon's look. He wanted Odysseus to actually look like someone who'd spent ten years surviving out at sea — lean, worn down, hardened, the physical manifestation of a veteran warrior battered by a decade of see travel. So Damon lost a real amount of weight for the role. And since Nolan hates fake-looking prosthetics and makeup when he can avoid them, he just had Damon grow out his beard for an entire year instead, until it looked genuinely wild — like a man who hadn't seen civilization in a decade.

One more thing — this is the first movie ever shot completely on IMAX 70mm film. So if there's a real IMAX theater anywhere near you, I'd advise you to watch it there.

The Dune movies have almost everything — great acting, exceptional cinematography, excellent screenplay — but it's not very entertaining, only cinephiles can watch it. Nolan movies have everything, you don't have to be a cinephile to enjoy Nolan's movies. He's simply one of the best to ever do it.

Dune movies better than any Nolan sci-fi but Denis will never make a movie as good as Oppenheimer
