You might not know this if you’ve been on a 20-year journey trying to get back home, but Christopher Nolan’s version of “The Odyssey” opened on Friday. Though the film looks like a blockbuster, it has also been beset by controversy over things like casting, its supposed “wokeness,” and whether a film based on a work of fiction is historically accurate. As a result, some people on X decided it would be funny to troll others by posting about the film, but getting crucial details completely wrong. Here are some of the funniest and most intentionally incorrect posts about the film so far. I thought the modern language in Nolan's Odyssey would be fine but I agree it was distracting when Odysseus walked out of the cyclops cave and said "well that just happened" Just got out of "The Odyssey." It really wasn't what I was expecting. Some of Christopher Nolan's choices here are curious. Lots of comedic notes. I was admittedly thrown with the setting being a dinner party, and when Seth Rogen showed up, I felt a bit confused.Not bad. 6/10. I’ve just walked out of the Odyssey. I didn’t know The Rock was even in it and I found the singing very off-putting. Felt like a kid’s film more than anything Guys, I know I shouldn’t have filmed in the cinema, but I saw THE ODYSSEY, and these woke casting & creative choices from Nolan have to be seen to be believed! What the f**k even was this, bro pic.twitter.com/Y4NmFWOjWp Just saw The Odyssey, I loved it but was really surprised it featured so many Minions. Not saying it’s bad or inaccurate. I’m aware of its oral history, so there’s no way to know Homer didn’t include Minions. But it was like 98% Minions. Didn’t even mention Odysseus. Just left the odyssey. It was pretty good….. but kind of felt like a rip off of O Brother, Where Art Thou?????? Just walked out of The Odyssey. Fantastic film. Thought the part where Matt Damon looked at the camera and said “You will die for Cultural Marxism” was a bit jarring but I still signed the pledge. Whoa can’t believe THE ODYSSEY begins with Matt Damon looking directly into the camera and apologizing for being white.
