“Just got out of #TheOdyssey. What a tale. What an amazing story. The cast, the scenery, the music.. the way Nolan keeps delivering those stories… bowing down to you, sir. What a chance we have to be alive as the same time as you,” one more opined.

Another user shared, “#TheOdyssey is the spectacle everyone expects but also so poignant. It just goes to show that the oldest stories and their themes still ring true and when that’s told by a visionary filmmaker and personified by the greatest talent of multiple generations- a masterpiece is born.”

Another shared, “Watching The Odyssey now. For me, I couldn’t really hide my disbelief because all the actors have very distinct accents. It doesn’t feel like they all share the same world.”
