Odyssey was a pretty spectacular movie. Old school close shots and animatronics over green screen. Didn't IMAX but did go to the 70mm film theatre. Even got a little spiel from the projectionist and cyclops eye lollies as a freebie. It was three hours but there just so much story it didn't drag. Slow start but it needed it. Five out of five greek nymphs.

It didnโ€™t feel long at all. I went to the Chadstone IMAX for the first time. I was impressed with the amount of elbow room compared to the museum.

The film of course was fantastic and epic.

That's where I went! It was great. The film just has amazing colour depth. They are showing a normal digital version too so double check before you buy
