Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is an epic in all senses of the word – and now it has first reactions from critics to match its towering ambition.
Our own entertainment editor Jordan Farley wrote, "#TheOdyssey is monumental filmmaking, its interpretation of Greek mythology electrifyingly uncanny. Staggering scale, thrillingly staged action, rich emotional throughlines." Better still, "the cyclops and Circe sequences are among the best of Nolan’s career." It's time to get very excited.
