“What you tend to walk away with after bearing witness to The Odyssey, arguably Christopher Nolan’s best work after 2017’s Dunkirk, is an overall sensation of awe.”
Rolling Stone
“Who better to adapt an epic poem than Nolan, a man who unearths poetry in all of his epics?”
New York Post
“Nolan and his collaborators have constructed a strange, fearsome and trailblazing machine of a movie – by some distance, the best of the year so far.”
