Nolan's 'The Odyssey' with Matt Damon: spectacular but sometimes dull

Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" stars a brooding Matt Damon in the lead role, supported by Tom Holland, Anne Hathaway, Robert Pattinson, Lupita Nyong'o, Zendaya and Charlize Theron. Critics praise its monumental scale and high-minded ambition, but note that its episodic structure makes it occasionally slow-paced. The film is an ambitious if uneven adaptation of Homer's classic epic.
