The Odyssey is the best movie I’ve seen in decades. Give it every award possible.

Kevin forgot to put /sarcasm at the end of his comment.

So much for people complaining about the blacks cast as Greeks.

I saw it, wouldn’t say that but it was enjoyable, in spite of the distracting stunt casting. It wasn’t a girl power movie, it wasn’t full of woke stuff other than the cast looking like one of those old united colors of benneton ads. It wasn’t a masterpiece but it was entertaining.

One person commented on the Odyssey trailer posted on Youtube “If I saw it on a plane I would still walk out”.

Wonder if he’s an investor who has a piece of it.

To hell with this woke garbage and to all those who wasted their time watching it.

[albie]

Why would Sorbo, of all people, say it was so great…if it’s so “color coordinated” and bad?!

[BipolarBob]

That’s funny.

[Semper Vigilantis]

Why pay for garbage when you watch a more realistic version for free?

Interesting. Your review might cause me to think about seeing it, (MIGHT).

“It wasn’t full of woke stuff other than the cast”
Were there HORSES in the movie?
I like movies with horses in it.

Here's the thing - time is a limited commodity, and there's an opportunity cost in addition to the financial cost whenever you decide to go see a movie in the theater. It may be a good movie, but it isn't worth my time to find out given the casting.

To put it differently, the director would not have made those casting choices unless he was affirmatively attempting to make a statement of some kind. And I'm not going to spend my time and money being annoyed by somebody else's social/political statements gratuitously thrown into a movie. Even if it is otherwise a good movie, I'd just feel like a chump.

Not everyone is so enthusiastic. There’s profanity.

I heard The Odyessey wasn’t that good. Bad storytelling.

[dfwgator]

Using reverse psychology.

[PROCON]

Raise your hand if you haven’t been to a movie theater in at least 20 years! 🙋🤚✋

[voicereason]

Why would Sorbo, of all people, say it was so great…

Perhaps hoping he could earn some goodwill and pick an acting role somewhere?

[dfwgator]

Getting liberals to question whether to see it, “If Sorbo likes it, it must be a MAGA-fest.”

I have not seen the movie, and I am doubtful about it. However, I might suggest the possibility that by going woke on the casting, he has given himself a lot more leeway of the content, which is far more important.
