Two decades ago, Nolan rebooted the Batman franchise withhis hugely influentialDark Knighttrilogy.
The response to Nolans Batman movies turned him from a mid-budget thriller director to a mega-budget blockbuster director.
Hes one of the only filmmakers who can command a nine-figure budget for an ambitious original project.
Nolans latest ambitious opus is a straightforward adaptation of HomersThe Odyssey.
A user calledguy whos really intoThe Iliadwrote that it makes the movie look boring.
These complaints are reminiscent of the debates surroundingNolans Batman movies.
Pretty muchevery aspect of Nolans take on the character and his design was debated and critiqued.
Some people said it was too different; others said it wasnt different enough.
This is already being repeated withThe Odyssey.
After dividing DC fans,Nolan is now dividing history and classics aficionados.
