The Odyssey

Forums:

Went to see it last night. Fun movie and worth seeing.

That said I went to a very nice "state of the art" theater with all the latest technological bells and whistles but I really don't understand the whole you have to see it in a theater thing because it just isn't better than what I have at home. If you want to feel Phil bombs it's better but I can make my home system do that but I choose not to because I don't need to feel my chair rattle every time it thunders and the sound in theater clipped out at the loudest parts. But the worst thing is of course once again you couldn't hear some of the dialog. 

 

 

This is the first film I've considered seeing in a theater in quite some time, but I'll probably end up streaming it at home at some point.

it is a true epic in terms of story telling and film making, we saw it last night and loved it

Is it better than "Oh Brother, Where art Thou" 

We watched it at the local indi place last night, enjoyed it, pretty packed house for there (30 people).  Long live the Darkside Cinema! 

(there was a lot more singing in "Oh Brother...")

Me and my twin daughters are going to see it in IMAX this week. First movie I've seen at a theater since Guardians of Galaxy II

El Nino,  I had the same experience with the movie Dunkirk. We didn't enjoy it. The sound was way off.

C+

We went yesterday and I thought the movie was great. Even though it's was billed as IMAX, (not a true IMAX) it was more like a regular theater from what I remember, even though tickets were $25-$30 each. The sound was a little off, too much rear channel at my seat, but overall it was still a great movie, not superb, but worth seeing in the theater. The Trojan Horse story actually made it seem like it could of been pulled off. Odysseus's battle within in himself and the duality of war was really in the forefront of the movie.
