Netzens call ‘The Odyssey’ ‘overrated’

Not everyone shared the enthusiasm, with one summarizing the film as, “THE ODYSSEY showcases Nolan’s best tendencies in glorious IMAX.”One disappointed viewer wrote, “I officially watched The Odyssey. My brief review: It’s moving on. It’s not the big deal the cabal critics would have you believe. It has a few moments of genius here and there that are dragged down by the cast and the female protagonist’s journey.”Another wrote, “For all the side notes, questionable voice choices, bad drag, and lack of clarity, it’s still a great tale of a man counting his sins.”Another comment added, “#TheOdyssey struggles a bit under the original with some awkward pacing and inconsistent pacing but I enjoyed it.”Others were very cruel. Another user responded, “It’s a statement that most of the movie is wrong. Some great movies, but that’s just redemption.”Another wrote, “The first hour of #TheOdyssey is so weak. All the quick changes are distracting. It’s a very Christopher Nolan movie that plays with time and memory in heavy ways.”Another viewer added, “I just saw The Odyssey. Sadly, the wake-up call is far from my biggest problem with the movie.”

Dialogues and performances divide the audience

Beyond the visuals and pacing, several moviegoers took issue with the dialogue and voice acting. Another user wrote, “Watching Odyssey now. For me, I couldn’t hide my disbelief because all the actors have very different voices.Another wrote, “The current dialogue took the immersion out of me, and it didn’t raise the drama at all.”A third bluntly stated, “the dialogues are horrible… fake dialogues detract from the film…”Giving a valid criticism, one observer said, “The real problem is the same as the pieces of the epic period that often suffer from it: the actors often contradict themselves, the faces of the people and their bodies imitate their emotions while their voices are not so much in dialogue as in repetition.Anne Hathawayi.e., he does not turn to it), and only Tom Holland it makes me very sad.”

Matt Damon gets a lot of praise

While opinions on the film remain divided, Matt Damon’s portrayal of Odysseus has emerged as one of the few points of consensus. One fan lamented, “How no one could have played the role of Odysseus like Matt Damon.. he was my favorite in the entire movie and I WANT him to get a well-deserved Oscar for Best Actor because it’s HIM.”Another wrote, “Luckily Damon is so good (in a difficult role) and Hathaway also supports it.”
