    I was gifted tickets for The Odyssey, gonna see it with a friend saturday. It's not the kind of movie I watch on my own accord. Tbh, I'm kinda dreading it. I expect exhausting "epicness" with lengthy LOTR part 2-like battle scenes, and tons of CGI bullshit.

    And no peeing for 3 fucking hours.

    I've seen trailers and screenshots, and thought "nah, not my bag". But maybe I'm in for a pleasant surprise? I mean, it has "universal acclaim" on Metacritic.

    ?

    • Isn't Nolan somewhat infamous for eschewing cgi?Nairn
    • .the sound crashes around like a bomb blast at times which is wierd and kinda nice and in retrospect the best thing abou it.. the movie its self is okneverscared
    • dont expect too much.. holland is not the best character actor and has a lot of screentime and that bored around at the start which was most lackyneverscared

    • it's not very epic tbh. More an oddly paced island hoping swords and sandals movie shot only in 50mm medium shots..inteliboy
    • I thought it was a fun movie and that the tree hours went by quite fast.Nutter
    • I say go and see it, set yourself a challenge, like believing this is Odyssey and not a bunch of celebrities wearing sandalsrzu-rzu
    • and wear sandals yourself ..neverscared
    • I'm not sure but I think you can get out at any time to pee. Send a fax to the theatre too to ask them, to be sure about the rules.HAL9001
