Great movie. I really liked it, since I like Greek mythology. It was very suspenseful, too.

Seems like there is a lot of hype both ways, some people not liking it because of political reasons and some people saying its the best movie of the year. It was very good but not sure why it was the highest scored Nolan film on Rotten Tomatoes. I would definitely recommend it if you like epics or adventures because it is probably the highest production quality of any epic ever made. Some of the casting choices were not great though and it was kind of distracting to have so many famous actors, it makes it harder to get sucked into the story because you're constantly reminded its a movie.

It was interesting to see a fantasy movie where the characters had American accents.
