According to the film review aggregator site, Rotten Tomatoes, The Odyssey (2026) is the best film directed by Christopher Nolan.
The film, adapted from Homer's ancient Greek poem, received the highest review score from film critics, which is 94%.
"Bringing back the ancient adventure story with a grand scale and extraordinary performances from its star-studded cast, Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey successfully revives mythology with fundamental and powerful human emotions," said the Rotten Tomatoes critics' consensus on its official page.
The Odyssey tells the story of Odysseus (Matt Damon) who attempts to return to his kingdom of Ithaca after the end of the Trojan War.
Along with his soldiers, he sails across the Mediterranean Sea and must face the ferocity of nature, various deadly obstacles, and mythological creatures that hinder their journey.
During his adventure, Odysseus encounters the Cyclops Polyphemus, a fierce one-eyed giant; Circe, a witch who can turn humans into animals; and Sirens, mythological creatures who lure sailors with their singing.
The journey, which should have only taken a few weeks, ultimately lasted for 10 years. On the other hand, his wife, Penelope (Anne Hathaway), remains faithful and awaits Odysseus' return.
However, Penelope's loyalty is constantly tested as many nobles attempt to marry her and seize the throne of Ithaca left by Odysseus.
The Odyssey is rated on par with Nolan's other films, such as The Dark Knight and Memento, which also received a review score of 94%.
