26 Years Later, This Odyssey Adaptation Is Still Perfect From Start to Finish

Since its release, Christopher Nolan's adaptation of The Odyssey has proven itself to be many things: a massive cinematic blockbuster (predicted to exceed $1 billion as its run continues), a faithful take on Homer's influential poem, and, perhaps most importantly, an invitation for moviegoers to revisit the ancient Greek epic. With reviewers and audiences alike raving about the film, The Odyssey is the type of film that leaves viewers wanting more tales of Odysseus, mythical beings, and perilous voyages. And while you might be tempted to look to movies like Troy or Clash of the Titans to scratch that itch, it's in another genre that you'll find the actual best follow-up.
