The Odyssey (2026) Film Review
The ships have arrived at Ithaca! #NolanClub finishes its epic run with our review of Christopher Nolan’s ambitious 2025 film, The Odyssey!

Despite some questionable casting choices and the challenges posed by the nonlinear source material, Nolan delivers a big, brawny all-star spectacle. So grab your popcorn, settle in, and join us for a journey through one of the most audacious retellings of Homer’s epic poem to hit the big screen.For more exclusive bonus podcasts like our Justice League Review show, our Teen Titans Podcast, and our GHL Exclusive Discord, join the Geek History Lesson Patreon ► https://www.patreon.com/JawiinGHL RECOMMENDED READING from this episode► https://www.geekhistorylesson.com/recommendedreadingFOLLOW GHL►Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/geekhistorylessonThreads: https://www.threads.net/@geekhistorylessonFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/geekhistorylessonGet Your GHL Pin: https://geekhistorylesson.etsy.comYou can follow Ashley at https://www.threads.net/@ashleyvrobinson or https://www.ashleyvictoriarobinson.com/Follow Jason at https://www.threads.net/@jawiin or https://bsky.app/profile/jasoninman.bsky.socialThanks for showing up to class today.
