Steven Soderbergh – „Liberace – Zu viel des Guten ist wundervoll“ (2013)Wenn schon Vegas, dann aber richtig! Steven Soderbergh kehrt ein paar Jahre nach „Ocean’s 11/12/13“ zurück und dreht den Wahnsinn noch ein paar Umdrehungen weiter. Dass dabei ein hochdramatisches, queeres Biopic entstanden ist, war für mich damals eine echte Überraschung. Tatsächlich erzählt Soderbergh von einer Kultur, die sich in den USA längst eigene Räume, eigene Regeln und eigene Formen der Sichtbarkeit geschaffen hatte und trotzdem immer noch gezwungen war, ihre Existenz vor der Mehrheitsgesellschaft zu verbergen. Mit Michael Douglas, Matt Damon, Rob Lowe und Dan Aykroyd. (ZDF, Wh.)

The Odyssey: Lots of Good Stuff, Some Bad Stuff as Well 🔱
What’s likely to be the biggest cinematic hit of 2026 is Christopher Nolan’s epic The Odyssey. Anyone and everyone have already said their bit about the film, but we’ve decided to crop up with our opinions all the same!
At nearly three hours it’s a monstrous undertaking. Unquestionably a mighty cinematic experience in IMAX, it does also suffer from stumbling stuff that drags it down, but all of it adds up to a glorious time of it. We had fun.
Guilt and PTSD in The Odyssey
Right. You probably know the plot already as this is adapted from Homer’s ancient Greek poem of the same name. Christopher Nolan has taken various liberties with the text, but the thrust of the story is sort of the same.
Star, front and centre, is Odysseus (Matt Damon) the King of the island of Ithaca. He’s been away from home for 20 years as he’s been battling it out during the Trojan War of 12th century BC.
After winning in a thrilling, last ditch Trojan Horse war move thing, it’s now left to Odysseus and his men to finally head on home. His wife Penelope (Anne Hathaway) tentatively awaits him, in his absence she’s barely able to hold off 100 suitors eager to take Odysseus’s throne.
But on the way back, Odysseus hits a series of relentless problems that escalate steadily into increasingly disastrous nightmares. As each episode plays out, the reality of the previous decade weighs heavily on his mind.
For Nolan’s Odyssey, it sees Odysseus become mired in an increasing sense of PTSD. The reality of war plays on his consience to the extent he questions whether he even wants to return home.
Hmmm! Well, there aren’t any official scenes available on YouTube yet, but you can get a great sense of the film with some sequences in the below.
Okay, the great stuff sits with the set pieces. The cyclops, the giant dudes in armoured plating, the Trojan Horse build-up and battle sequence, and Circe the witch are all goddamn outstanding.
It’s up to you which is best of the lot, but for us it’s the Trojan Horse stuff. Nolan at his absolute best and one of the best cinematic moments we’ve ever seen.
However, quite a chunk of The Odyssey is also a bit on the flat side of things. Some of the acting and casting are questionable (we’re looking at you Tom Holland), the script can be Mickey Mouse, plus there are big chunks of dull stuff. Mainly anything involving Tom Holland’s bland performance.
Plus, the super talented Mia Goth is in this film and she’s utterly wasted with almost no screen time or character development. As is the case for the excellent Robert Pattinson, whose Antinous is the main antagonist but 97% of the time is only ever in one room whilst grimacing.
It’s almost like Nolan should have spread this out into two films to properly develop out the story. To get everything into three hours was hellish ambitious of him and it often works, but for us this isn’t a 5/5.
It’s a very good film all the same. Highly recommended you see it in IMAX as this is the whole point. Take in the full cinematic spectacle, revel in the set pieces, and don’t get too upset about the story dwindling around a little bit. Well done to Mr. Nolan, he’s got people interested in history!
A Quick Note on Odyssey’s Soundtrack
Swedish composer Ludwig Göransson handled the music for Nolan’s latest film. The result is often very beautiful, he went to great lengths to use musical instruments that were around in antiquity.
This meant his team had to bring many of them back to life, re-inventing instruments that haven’t been around in thousands of years. That included an ancient lyre and aulos (a wind instrument). Hurling in Albanian iso-polyphony choral music over the top and it’s quite distinct as a soundtrack, although does lapse into bombast when it needs to.
Our favourite pieces? Sirens above is eerie and fabulous, then you’ve got the lush Ithaca theme below.
The sound effects in the film are frequently deafening, too. In IMAX, the scream from Polyphemus the cyclops registers in at 125 decibels. That’s the loudest scream in modern cinema and up there with Roger Daltrey’s big moment in The Who’s hit single Won’t Get Fooled Again (for reference).
Anyway, full credit to Ludwig Göransson as he does create some excellent moments with his score. Although, following Nolan’s lead, he’s often left to produce less intriguing pieces than the above.
The Production of The Odyssey
Okay, so this launched on 17th July 2026 and is still very much in cinemas. It’s just had its IMAX run extended into at least September as the tickets keep fully booking out. It’s really triggered a big response from the public, many of whom will experience the glory of IMAX for the first time.
It’s like being hit by a sledgehammer of cinematic spectacle and that’s why we love it.
The downside? It’s had a tedious backlash from the alt-right (headed by Elon Musk), who claim the film is whitewashing “history”. Their main beef is it’s “woke” as it was a trans actor in a small role and Helen of Troy is Lupita Nyong’o (i.e. not white). The hysterical meltdown they’ve had about it has done nothing to dent global box office figures. The film has already made $1.301 billion off its $250 million budget.
Go woke, go broke indeed…
As for the production cycle, following Nolan’s last film (2023’s Oppenheimer) he hadn’t worked out what to do next. Once decided, he went on to write the screenplay for The Odyssey and take on directing duties.
The shoot last for 91 days across February and August of 2025. He worked so effectively everything wrapped nine days ahead of schedule! Despite shoots taking place all over the shop, including locations such as Morocco, Western Sahara, Greece, Italy, Scotland, and the US.
Nolan is famous for embracing practical effects, so pretty much everything you see in the film most definitely isn’t CGI. That included building a 30ft cyclops for that scene, plus setting 5ft stunt actors against 7ft ones for others.
The Odyssey is almost certain to win a big bunch of Oscars. No way a film earning this much, and getting so much internal attention, isn’t going to win a load of them. Watch this space in 2027 then for the Academy Awards.

Robert De Niro – „Der gute Hirte“ (2006)
Robert De Niro erzählt, in einem seiner seltenen Filme als Regisseur, von der Entstehung der CIA. Das ist kein Hochspannungs-Thriller, sondern beschreibt die ernüchternde Herkunftsgeschichte einer emotional verarmten Supermacht. Hier gibt es keine coolen Gadgets, keine One-Liner und keine Agentenposen. Nur Männer in grauen Anzügen, die lernen, nichts zu fühlen – und das dann für Professionalität halten. Mit Matt Damon, Angelina Jolie, Martina Gedeck, Joe Pesci und William Hurt. (ZDF, Wh.)

Kenneth Lonergan – „Manchester by the Sea“ (2016)
Kenneth Lonergan lässt Casey Affleck, Lucas Hedges und Michelle Williams durch Schmerz, Schuld und leise Komik stolpern. Männer gefangen in Stillstand, Frauen handeln, das Leben läuft trotzdem weiter. Subtil, präzise, menschlich: Sein Film beobachtet Trauma und Verantwortung ganz ohne Pathos – und trifft trotzdem mitten in mein Herz. (ARTE)
