The Odyssey

I feel like I really need to process what I have just watched. Christopher Nolan never misses, yet another masterpiece from him. So much happens in this movie and I loved every single second of it I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen what an incredible story it was genuinely so entertaining and just so well written. I loved the use of flash backs allowing us to learn more about the past whilst still having all the drama in the present it was absolutely brilliant and every character was great. The way this movie is shot is so perfect and so many scenes I just found myself mesmerised by the screen. Nolan is absolutely brilliant at building tension every fight scene feels so well choreographed but also so tense and combined with the score it is so exciting to watch. I loved the scenes in the Cyclops cave as well they felt so tense and it honestly felt like a horror movie at times, I thought the cyclops looked so disturbing yet so great. Another extremely disturbing scene is the pig transformations with the witch delivering some very unexpected body horror. This movie was great it was dramatic, action packed and even had elements of horror sprinkled throughout. I thought the entire cast was absolutely brilliant Tom Holland was brilliant Anne Hathaway as always stole every scene she was in absolutely everyone delivered great performances but the standout is easily Matt Damon, what an absolutely incredible performance he does as Odysseus every scene he is in is just a perfect performance. Also I don’t think I’ve ever despised Robert Pattinson as much as I did in this movie what an absolute little coward. I had a massive soft spot for Eumaeus genuinely such a great character and John Leguizamo done such a good job. What a movie, it’s honestly gonna take a lot of time for me to process everything the story was so good and there was so much happening i genuinely just got lost in the story, watching this was an absolutely amazing experience.
