The Odyssey(2026) Review: A Brilliant Psychological Epic That Almost Gets There
Full disclosure: I came into Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey with sky-high expectations. After all, we are talking about The Odyssey — a cornerstone of the Western canon that has been translated, reimagined, and dissected. Set to music long before anyone had ever heard of Margaret Atwood or Claire North. Having read and enjoyed more than a few different adaptations, including (but not limited to) Emily Wilson’s landmark translation , Margaret Atwood’s The Penelopiad , Claire North’s Songs of Penelope Trilogy, and EPIC: The Musical , I was prepared to like this one a lot.

Nolan Cut the Twelve Hanged Women From The Odyssey. That Silence Is the Real Story.
After the camera looks away Nolan told the truth in his Time interview. He said the ending of the Odyssey was “too grim and so misogynistic,” that he had to exclude some of it, and that he still did not want to abandon what it says about “the way men make war.” That sentence is a useful example. A director recognizes the ethical problem in his source text. His way of handling it is to avoid staging that problem and examining it. Instead, he has the camera look away.
