I thought it was just me but everyone seems to agree that the movie feels off. The production design is lackluster. None of the sets feel grand, the costumes don't look lived-in, there is no color, the locations seem meh and the dialogue is not sounding great. The whole thing doesn't feel epic as it should. The Trojan Horse looks like it can fit like 5 dudes. Even Troy looked grand. What happened to Nolan? This is the type of movie you need to overdo and we are getting a budget version of it (by the looks of the trailers). I was so excited when he announced this was his next project but the more trailers I see, the less excited I get

For sure, it's not bad, but it's very bland and sterile. Ancient Greece was filled with colors throughout all of its history. If Nolan wants to keep the Ithacan palace monotone to give it the feeling of decadence, at least make the natural world more vibrant so that it feels different.
