“The Odyssey”, Christopher Nolan’s adaptation of Homer's epic poem, has hit the big screen.
Matt Damon stars as the legendary Greek hero Odysseus, alongside the likes of Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong’o, Zendaya and Charlize Theron in a cast that’s almost as epic as the tale itself.
Shot entirely on IMAX 70mm film cameras, Nolan “undertakes what is arguably his most ambitious project to date”, says David Mouriquand in his review on Euronews Culture. The Oscar-winning filmmaker has “certainly given it his best and biggest shot”.
Over its opening weekend and in the weeks ahead, cinemas around the world will hope to welcome millions of fans to watch the 2-hour-52-minute blockbuster.
But cinemas aren't the only businesses looking to benefit from Nolan’s latest flick – the travel sector is also predicting a big few months ahead as fans look to go “set-jetting”.
