The Odyssey in IMAX is worth a long journey of your own - Engadget
Engadget argues that seeing The Odyssey in IMAX—specifically IMAX 70mm—is the best way to experience the film’s full scope. The review contrasts a traditional 70mm theater experience with IMAX, highlighting immersion as the key difference: at Regal Mall of Georgia, the screen is described as 60 feet tall and 81.5 feet wide, filling the viewer’s field of view. The article says the film, the first Hollywood movie shot entirely on IMAX film, elevates scenes such as the Trojan Horse reveal and aerial views of Odysseus’s home in Ithaca. It also credits cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema and composer Ludwig Göransson for details and sound clarity, and describes how the sound system and large format make battle audio and visuals more distinct. The writer emphasizes production scale—like hundreds of people moving a full-size Trojan Horse and 2,000 extras for Troy—to underline that technology supports human creativity.
