Booksology odyssey It opens in theaters tomorrow, and reviews for director Christopher Nolan’s epic film adaptation are as rosy as Homer’s beloved Finger of Dawn. Here are the reviews:
A truly epic and courageous vision, “The Odyssey” is a lavish thrill ride for much of its nearly three-hour running time. It seems like every few minutes the audience is thrown a powerful set piece that would be the climactic centerpiece of any other summer studio spectacle. — Guy Lodge, variety
…the craziest thing of odyssey It’s just that Nolan’s interpretation completely hits the spot, adding an unexpected dimension to one of our culture’s most storied and retold sagas. This is a movie packed with brave set pieces and amazing effects. It’s also mature and thoughtful, a character portrait disguised as a blockbuster. — Hilary Bass, vanity fair
