Troy the Odyssey (2017) – Review

Where to watch Troy the Odyssey

3 Stars

It makes sense that Asylum films would focus their attention on the sword and sandal genre. I’m a bit surprised we never got a timely released follow up to Almighty Thor, but that is another discussion. Troy the Odyssey is a (dare, I say) classy and classically structured, shot, and written story that’s akin to those old epic television mini-series’ that dominated network telecasts during the 1990’s. I mean that as a sincere and nostalgic compliment to the picture, It’s that slick and entertaining.

Director: Tekin Girgin
Stars: Dylan Vox, Lara Heller, Ego Mikitas

  1. Absolutely NOT for a classicist or anyone with the vaguest notion of the Illiad or the Odyssey.
    Pure bunkum swords, sandals and sirens.
    The wooden horse was good, from a distance.

  2. Well, um, uh…….hmmm. This is probably the best bad movie ever. Trust me this is going to be a stoner, movie in the background of a party…..classic. These people are TRYING to act TERRIBLE. The monsters are maybe community college 101, nah….. youtube trained, your cousin did it, quality. I WATCHED THE WHOLE THING SOBER!!! In bed, and was absolutely in shock at the whole thing. It really looks like some guy who dropped out of film school (in Wisconsin, first year), met a rich guy and convinced him this was gonna make “millions!” HUH-Larious film! GET high before watching and watch with friends. Crying scenes by Odysuess are the best! Loved the ridiculousness of the whole thing.

  3. You do get to spend the first five minutes picking out the actor’s different accents, except for agemmemnon, could not understand anything he said. The horse was a less wooden actor. Netflix has this with a four star rating!! More like a four minute rating.

  4. Hands down the greatest movie I’ve ever seen! The plot and storyline were on point and everything was well put together. I haven’t watched anything this entertaining in forever. I give Peewee’s Big Adventure a 10/10

  5. Absolute crap, acting, actors and diologue, I’m usually easily pleased but who in the hell was daft enough to hire these morons and pay for this ludicrous excuse for a movie?

  6. Troy the Odyssey. This is the shittiest movie ever acted, doesn’t even deserve to be on the big screen. It’s painfully bogus. Thank you

    1. Have to agree with you wholeheartedly — I’ve seen better staging and performances at the local high school. This was an abysmal waste of 10 minutes of my time, any longer intolerable.
