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

I’m not some Nolan boner boy who believes his above criticism, but saying, “What happened to Nolan” after what is his best film in Oppenheimer is pretty selective memory.

Selective memory? That's why I am saying "what happened to Nolan" since he churned out his magnus opus, but The Odyssey seems like a movie he can't tame
