Nolan's "Odyssey": epic in scale, intimate in spirit — a mirror of our times

Christopher Nolan's "Odyssey" is praised as an epically scaled yet intimate film that transforms Homer's ancient poem into a story about the present day. The review argues Nolan uses the source material to reflect on a world in crisis and on the human struggle to stay anchored to one's values. It is described as cinema that speaks directly to the viewer's inner life.
