REVEALED: The odyssey beats the dark knight rises to score christopher nolans biggest opening weekend ever | Vintage Vibes

Matt Damon as Odysseus in The Odyssey.

The Odyssey has had a massive opening weekend at the box office. As well as opening bigger than any Christopher Nolan movie to date, topping The Dark Knight Rises, the movie scored the second-biggest IMAX opening weekend ever, coming in behind only Avengers: Endgame.

Debuting to an enormous $264m worldwide ($124.5m domestic), The Odyssey blew past initial projections, powered by extremely positive word-of-mouth (it achieved an A Cinemascore), sold out round-the-clock IMAX 70mm showings, and a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes rating. Our own The Odyssey review awards the film 5 stars, and calls it "mythical filmmaking of the highest order."
