Thoughts after watching:
Cinematography, sets, score and practical effects all look phenomenal.
It looks like the dialogue could go either way at this point. The trailer only gives us a few lines, that are mostly fine, but does include the occasional stinker such as 'lets goooo' as though Odysseus is in a call of duty lobby.
Anne Hathaway is a great actor and used to be stunning, but in the last couple of years her facelift/s and plastic surgery have left her edging towards that slightly strange, pulled back look. To the point where it's distracting watching her performances in a historical epic like the odyssey. Her facial expressions and emoting are becoming a little bit uncanny valley, compared to much of her previous, stellar work (@2:01).
I can already tell Robert Pattison is going to give one of the films best performances, he's gone from strength to strength in the last 10+ years. Charlize Theron appears to be locked in too, and she's also a phenomenal actor when she's at her best.
Personally Matt Damon wouldn't have been my first choice for the character of Odysseus, but he's an incredible actor and I trust him to give a solid performance, as evidenced by some moments of his in the trailer.
Tom Holland is perfect for his supporting role and I have no doubts about him doing it justice given that he won't be the main focus.
We didn't see much, if anything from most of the other supporting cast so there's still a lot left to look forward to...
I think this will be a stunning, beautifully shot, perfectly crafted movie, but I still have some minor concerns around some actors being miscast for their roles...
Not to take anything away from the movie though as despite my personal opinion about some of the casting, it certainly won't 'ruin' it.
I just think that like a lot of people before it was announced, we all had our imagined versions of what a perfect adaptation would look like so it's hard to please everyone.
There hasn't been a bad Christopher Nolan movie so I'm looking forward to seeing it, and finding out if it will meet, miss or exceed mine and everyone else's expectations!
Edit: (Forgot to mention that The giants, Sailing, and Trojan Horse scenes look epic!)
