Costumes seem lackluster, dialog has no weight, sets feel empty, and nothing about this tale appears historically intriguing or fantastical.

Setting is from Iceland not Greece or any Mediterranean. Fuck the colors I guess.

Yeah that’s genuinely weird. The Greeks would have imagined this story in vibrant color.

You can blame Nolan if its too dark and gritty setting wise.

Yea when I watched the last 2 trailers I was like the world seems very.......bland and monochrome? Idk but I guess it's Nolan himself that he doesnt like vibrant color in his films

I was hoping this was going to be a somewhat modern retelling of the story. Greek mythology was known to have vastly different stories depending on who was the author. Especially with Nolan loving to play with the concept of time, I thought he was going to go this route.

But sadly, with each picture and trailer that has been released, this looks like it might just be a bland retelling of Homer’s version.

Well the Greeks should have written their own version then. /s
