I watched it last night. As a Greek I m very happy for this brilliant adaptation. Don't wait to see the Monsters and the Gods. It begins from the moment he reached his island .
It looks great and I'm glad they haven't forgot that he is one of the best fighters of the age not just smart but for the love of the gods the Trojans didn't think the horse was a gift they thought it was a sacrifice for a safe trip home from the Achaeans. Why would they besiege the city for a decade and then thank them for not winning?
Yeah this annoyed me, too. The Trojans didn’t stupidly let it in assuming it was a gift. They suspected a trap and had to be convinced. The Greeks left someone behind to persuade them, and the Trojans were still skeptical. It’s only when the gods finally intervened that they reluctantly let the horse in.
I literally just rewatched Troy yesterday randomly, then i see this trailer! Im pumped, i know it's not an actual sequel - but in my mind it is. Loved that movie, and this one looks great too!
@@docsays it still is bad in terms of adaption. They glorified Achilles too much and they changed the entire storyline of the Iliad. That is why for me is a bad movie
He is, in fact, the original. If you want to know more, I encourage you to read the Odyssey for yourself! :D I personally suggest Robert Fagles’ translation. It has a free audiobook for Spotify subscribers, and the book cover is very pretty. I also absolutely love his translation notes! It gives first time readers near-perfect context for the time period they’re about to experience ❤
At first, it annoyed me that the cast were walking around ruins & not an established civilisation with buildings intact. Then, I started to get Harryhausen vibes, genuine nostalgia. I so want a stopmotion creature to turn up.
The impression I get (and this may be wrong, as I am going off only a two minute trailer) is that the film justifies the ruins with the idea that Ithacan civilization has begun to fall apart because of Odysseus's absence.
Imagine that the king had left 20 years ago and taken an able-bodied population with him. What condition might the place they left be in when they, or just the king, returns?
Don't forget that this story takes place in a much older era than the classic one. We are in the 300 Spartans which has the well known architecture you probably referred to. Mycenaean era 1300-1200BC no in 500-300 BC with the Parthenon the great philosophers and the 300 Sp 0:45 a
There are two eras of Greek history, and you’re thinking of the later one with Socrates and Plato and Aristotle etc. This is an earlier age. Read The Odyssey and you realize this is a much less advanced civilization than the Classical Greece that will emerge later-kings sleep on floors along with all their slaves and family, etc. I’m actually very happy with how this film looks; it’s much more accurate to the more brutal and less developed Greece of the Homeric epics even if that’s not the “pop culture” image most Westerners have of Greece in this time period.
Given that I recently the watched Armand Assante version of this movie... it's hard watching anyone else play this role. I'm a huge fan of Ralph Fiennes and Juliette Binoche, but this trailer looks like the same story and I didn't see anything new. Will I still watch it? Yes. But I'm not expecting much, with the hopes that I'll leave the theater pleasantly surprised.
...An entire drama based on the most interesting part of The Odyssey: Penelope and her suitors. Something tells me there will be no sirens, cyclops, or witch turning men into pigs.
spoiler alert... the trailer basically gives it away, shoot through the axes, is all about alignment, it's a David Vs Goliath moment... strength of the mind against the strength of the body
I mean... The story is older than old, but did you have to spoil the ending in the trailer? This could've been quite an eye opener for entire generations unfamiliar with the source material
Looks good in many ways. But the voiceover saying "the smartest" three seconds in - does anybody have an ear for English in this project!? No translator of Homer would say "smartest" - it breaks the archaic feeling entirely, and not in a self-aware or clever way, just a careless way. It's not a word with a long history in English (in its current meaning), so it feels narrowly contemporary. Also, gosh, leave some parts of the movie out of the trailer. Weird blend of high and low quality in the trailer design and execution. These actors deserve better.
This is the most pendulous, terrible adaptation imaginable of the rip-roaring conclusion of The Odyssey. There is literally zero plot development through its first hour-and-a-half as Feinnes mopes around the island feeling sorry for himself and Telemachus gets bullied by strangers then takes out his frustrations by accusing his mother of being a liar and a whore. In ancient Greece, the horrid behavior of any one of the people in this film would have resulted in immediate death as a matter of honor. The inhabitants of Ithaca in this bizarre film are also bafflingly international. They look about as Greek as the staff of a McDonald's in downtown Los Angeles, and their acting is about as good. The final scene in which Odysseus and his son slaughter all the bully-suitors is somewhat satisfying, but it is ruined by the resulting childish crying of Penelope, who in the poem is even more thirsty for these men's blood than were her husband and son. All of the family loyalty that makes this tale worthwhile is utterly destroyed and degraded. This is yet another Hollywood hit piece on the great traditions and stories of the west. If I could give it a negative score, I would. A truly evil thing.
inb4 "muh Ethiopians" cope. Sub-Saharan Africans weren't in Ancient Greece in any significant numbers. Stop pushing black people into everything where they don't belong. It's a Greek myth, let it stay with Europeans. Of course, the people who run the production companies indeed cannot help themselves.
There are Black characters in The Iliad and The Odyssey. For example Memnon, king of Ethiopia, is a major supporting character in The Illiad. He's the son of Eos/Aurora goddess of the dawn, an ally of the Trojans, described as equal in skill almost to Achilles as they are both demigods. He's also depicted in the Roman epic The Aeneid which tells the Fall of Troy from the POV of the Trojans. His fight with Achillies is also depicted in several other Greek poems: The Aethiopis, Posthomerica, and Imagines. And he is depicted as a Black man in ancient Greek artwork and vase paintings.
It has been made in Corfu a Greek island in the Ionian see .The landscape and the castle are real. Ionian islands are much more different than the Cyclades that most foreigners are familiar with.
Maybe you should make a little bit or research to find out that archers were vital in any European army too and you have to know about the period that Odessia happened.

@@AmanCreatesArt Memnon is one character. The ancient Greek Bronze Age is not replete with sub-saharan Africans. Especially not on Ithaca. That's just false. The amount of DEI hires in the movie detracted from the historicity. Still good movie, but it needed more Greek actors. Modern DEI movies make it look like Africans were all over the world. Detracts from the believability. It's simple, it's becase the awards have quotas now. If you don't meet the quotas, you don't get awards. Historicity be damned.
It looks really bad, the outfits look so cheap and not from Late Bronze Age Greece. The buildings are all ruined and they really do not look like someone lives in them. And why are there so many Africans on a tiny Greek island in 1200 BC?
what africans? the one black guy at 0:33?? he’s probably ethiopian, of which there were at least a few even in mycenae greece. not in the thousands or hundreds but they existed. calm down 😂
@@XephyrutheMad There are more Sub-Saharans, like in 1:02, 1:08, 1:09, 1:14, 1:37, 1:38, 1:46, 1:49, 2:05. I also take issue with the very "Aryan" Germanic in 0:46 and 1:07 they would have been treated as foreigners in Greece of the time, which means "Barbarians".
There was trans-saharan trade well before 450 BC. Besides, why does the fact that there is a very English man playing Odysseus? This would have been well before Rome invaded Britain. It's almost like it's a story
I’m more bothered with that odd blond guy , not because he is blond but because his hair style is like made in Essex . Who the fk thought this would blend ?
History buffs, this movie isn’t for you. This seems more like a Shakespearean effort, as in this was made to focus on the drama and acting, with minimal care for the set pieces and effects.
It doesn't need to be a giant Hollywood blockbuster. Medium-budgeted movies with a focus on contained narratives and actor performances are a dying breed, and it's good to see more of them.
@@myrdraal2001 "Muh, diversity", but they cannot even properly represent the very people who created these stories, the Hellenes. No, they represent Western Europeans, Sub-Saharan Africans probably also East Asians, but not the Greeks. Foolish Greeks.
