Homer's Greek Odyssey was a masterpiece...Simp Nolan's version is pure feminist man hating garbage!

Nolan is a disgrace! I should have expected this to be terrible after seeing soy boy simp Nolan at the women's march with his pink hat but I never thought anyone would have the nerve to desecrate a classic Greek story that has stood the test of time for 3000 years. Instead of using the source material by Homer to make the epic Greek Odyssey, he uses a man hating, tattoo covered feminist bitter deconstruction. This truly proves the woke feminist hatred of white male heroism. The race and gender swapping is appalling. Helen of Troy who was a beautiful white, blonde woman became a dark black African women??? Half the cast is black, Indian or Pakistani. This pulls you out of any immersion into the story because Greek people especially Ancient Greeks were clearly white. You are also completely put off right from the start with Travis Scott, a black rapper, banging a stick on the floor while he slam raps out random words? Elliot Page in the very next scene as a Greek soldier was beyond pitiful. There is no universe that Page can convince anyone that tiny, weak female frame could be a Greek soldier. There is also a constant angry feminist narrative woven throughout this movie clearly for political reasons and to subvert the story. The scene with Cersi really drives this narrative home. Nolan changed Cersi from a beautiful alluring temptress to a menopausal bitter women who blames men for all the evils in the world and literally turned Odysseus's crew into pigs for no reason other than for being men. She not the only one. Every single women in this movie has her ridiculous feminist moment in which they basically say that men are bad, men are violent, women are victims but even if women are evil its men's fault. Penelope going on a feminist rant about why she should be king was so cringe and obviously never was in the actual story. Worst of all is how Nolan turned a brilliant, cunning and brave Odysseus into a depressed, guilt ridden guy with PTSD. The Calypso island is another ridiculous change to the story. In the original Odyssey, Calypso is a beautiful alluring goddess who forces Odysseus to stay on the island against his will. She further offers him immortality if he agrees to willingly stay with her. Odysseus is noble and refuses because all he wants is to return to Ithaca to his wife and son. Nolan changed Calypso to a 60 year old with tons of plastic surgery who did not force Odysseus to stay on the island with her against his will, but instead she was his therapist to help him cope with this trauma. I’m not even joking. This is how rediculous this movie is. The acting is terrible. The music score is loud and obnoxious. Agamemnon is in a Batman suit. The Trojans looked like they were wearing Party City costumes. Lastly after movies like Black Panther and Moana in which the studio's were praised on how accurate they remained to African and Polynesian culture…but…when the story is based on white Greeks, being accurate and respecting Greek culture doesn't matter The hypocrisy is sickening! This movie is an insult to the Greek people and makes a mockery of one of the most important pieces of literature ever made.

Score: 6

I don't think I'm going to waste my time with this one. Thanks for the review George. It's about what I expected considering the trailers and the casting.
