The Odyssey Question

Is it worth seeing in IMAX? I have a chance to go tonight but it’ll be a four+ hour ordeal to do so. I’ve got a great home theater setup with surround sound and a 83 OLED.
Just curious your thoughts on if it’s worth it or just wait for at home?

Worth it.

It's a very competent, totally forgettable movie. IMAX not worth it.

Just watch O Brother Where Art Thou, it's a better adaptation

Imax was much more enjoyable than regular theater, which will be better than even an 83 inch screen

Not sure if IMAX is needed but I thoroughly enjoyed the movie.

i'm very glad i saw it in XD (closest IMAX is 2 hours away) and it is a very worthwhile experience but I'll probably never revisit it, much like Oppenheimer.

No
Just wait for it on a streaming service.
Average movie with horrible casting.

Depends on if you're seeing it on a real IMAX screen instead of those Temu Liemax screens.

It’s allegedly the worlds tallest lol

Definitely worth it then. 
It should be illegal for theaters to call those screens in standard auditoriums "Imax screens." I feel for the folks who actually think that's the real IMAX experience.

If you are watching in 70mm IMAX, get there on time. There is one 4 minute intro scene from Dune Part 3 (worth the price of admission if you are a Dune fan) and then the movie starts. No 20-30 minutes of trailers and commercials.

I'd say it is a no brainer if you have it available. Filming the whole thing in Imax like they did put some serious limitations in how some things could be done and scenes shot, so if you can get the full benefit of the things the Imax was able to improve on, there is no reason to not do so. Otherwise you are maximizing the downside of the IMAX use while minimizing the upside of it.

Yes, it was worth seeing it in IMAX. One of those movies that visually appealing. IMAX is 20 times better than watching on your 65-inch at home in 2 months.

Thanks all. Gonna see it at a better time next Tuesday on the Worlds Tallest (not largest) IMAX
Posted on 9/1/26 at 3:51 pm to GeauxLaneTrain
Nope.

if you don't mind watching a movie which isn't faithful to the original story, go for it.
Posted on 9/1/26 at 3:59 pm to GeauxLaneTrain
Just be warned. The third act is SLOOWWWW

The same people down voting you will never watch the Odyssey again. Glad I saw it, but no desire to see it again.
