It was pretty good! I sat next to a high-school aged kid who seemingly knew nothing about the odyssey yet was arguably the hypest person in the theater going "lets-fucking-go LET'S GOO" whenever they blinded the poor cyclops and was angry as hell at Telemachus (he literally shouted 'DO SOMETHING' during the contest fight) & as a result my experience was heightened.

Definitely recommend seeing it on the biggest screen you can; I went to my local museum's imax which can do 1.43:1 and it was great. There are several scenes where I felt like I was on the damn ship.

No cyclops dong but I was blessed with one ass thanks to Circe my beloved.....

Saw it on 70mm film, not IMAX, and it was really nice to see on film.

Jealous!! I would kill for a theater that does 70mm projection near me. I did consider driving out to the nearest one like 3-4 hours away but it was sold out months ago and the screen I did see it on was 1.43:1 anyways so I wasn't missing out on much besides it being digital vs film. Dune 3 though....

Helmets looked flimsy as hell and like clear props and that took me out of it, but things were much better once everyone lost them. Also not a big deal.

I thought the same thing the entire time during the Underworld scene. Real ecoterrorist moment when the shades pop out of the ground with those dumbass helmets lol
