Very good adaption set in the fictional Taurus City, The United States of Europe, 2023. It’s a bit like the movie O Brother, Where Art Thou (2000)which also pays homage to The Odyssey. Ulysses: A Dark Odyssey has much more violent themes though. I highly recommend it even though some reviewers on IMDb seem to hate it. The cyclops moment was very in...
I almost stopped watching the movie after 5-10 minutes thinking it was so B-Grade I had to stop wasting my time, especially after I heard this bizarre Scottish accent which was so out of place. Then came the miniature war ship which was laughable. I’m so glad I stuck with this movie because it actually turned out to be an ok film. It’s definitely n...

The adventures of Jacques-Yves Cousteau at sea are amazing when you think about it. I found it very interesting to learn about a plaque dedicated to him under the s...

UlyssesPick (Jason Patric) returns to his home and embarks on an odyssey through the house, one room at a time. This movie is some sort of surreal crossover between a gangster movie and haunted house film.
Australian-Croatian co-production Depicts the psychological hardship faced by Penelope, wife of Odysseus, as she waits twenty years for her husband to return from the Trojan War.
Another title this movie goes by is Odysseus & the Isle of Mists. This is actually a very watchable movie. I recommend it for all Greek mythology fans. Movies based on The Odyssey which are half decent are hard to come by.
SpongeBob SquarePants goes on a hero’s quest which sort of mocks Odysseus. Here we have a funny looking character riding the bag of winds. SpongeBob faces off with a “cyclops” (a deep-sea diver) and has to deal with the anger of the sea-god, Neptune.
