So cool. Love seeing the "Office Ladies" together again onscreen, plus all the others who made cameos. The story was intriguing, I thought of so many ways it could end, and even then I was still surprised.

3.5 stars. Partly due to past excellent Nolan movies (Oppenheimer/Tenet/Inception / Batman redos)
The pros:
1. The cinematography is outstanding.
2. The characters and story are classic (it’s Homers writings after all)
3. Action is very solid and battles depicted vividly.
The Cons:
1. The actors use modern accents for classic Greek history. Worst transgressors was John Legz as Eumaeus w a Brooklyn accent? lol.
2. I know Nolan wanted a “woke” cast of colour so other characters were not Greek by casting design.
3. The movie is too long. I know it’s hard to edit but it’s not necessary to have a scene Matt D and his wife before he leaves.
I liked it overall but it’s not in the top tier for Nolan movies already done.

Long, incredibly loud and boring, unless you like a lot of violence. I actually had to cover my ears due to the constant blaring og sound, and I'm hard of hearing.

So it's quite obvious that there is a number of people who don't like Eli Roth or his politics. But this movie is exactly what it's supposed to be..gory ..silly...at times shocking..funny ( yes the soccer jmoms who don't get the humour if 12 year olds knowing how to puke need to shut up cuz we don't care what you think). There was no more AI used then in mission impossible movies...was it a classic? No...but I bet you it's going to be a number one streamed movie when it's available and you will find it to be " an okay time waster" in the genre of comedy horror/slasher films.
