I'm really expecting this to be quite a bad film. Maybe not for the same reasons as the chuds, but still.
It's funny, taking a look at his credits I really do like most of Nolan's movies but I certainly wouldn't consider him to be one of the greats of our time. He's like a self-serious Michael Bay. He makes enjoyable if, on the whole, unremarkable blockbusters. I still haven't seen Tenet. *Oppenheimer *was fine. Interstellar, Memento, and especially The Prestige are quite good, and I'll always have a fondness for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. And I haven't seen Insomnia. So there's only three Nolan movies I actively dislike of those I have seen, Dunkirk, Inception, and The Dark Knight Rises.
Six out of nine isn't a great score and though on the whole I enjoy Nolan's work he's clearly not the right writer/director for an adaptation of The Odyssey.
Also, I still really need to watch the Uberto Pasolini film The Return, starring Ralph Fiennes as Odysseus and Juliette Binoche as Penelope, which I've heard is good.
