The highest gross<\/u> in a single day for a movie this year actually belongs to \u201cThe Super Mario Galaxy Movie,\u201d which made $48 million on its first Friday in theaters in April\u2014but that movie unconventionally opened on a Wednesday, so it didn\u2019t have the typical Thursday preview screenings most movies have.<\/p>\n

What Are Critics Saying About \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d?<\/h2>\n

Critics have hailed \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d as among the best movies of the year, and it has an excellent 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes<\/u> based on 298 critics reviews. That\u2019s higher than the 93% score of Nolan\u2019s 2023 movie \u201cOppenheimer<\/u>,\u201d which won Best Picture at the Academy Awards. NPR<\/u> praised \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d as \u201cthe epic only Christopher Nolan could make,\u201d saying the director made the film \u201cwith epic sweep and grandeur, on a big-time Hollywood budget.\u201d The New York Times<\/u> review praised the movie as a \u201cclassic in every sense, a transporting affirmation of the art and a work of pure cinema.\u201d<\/p>\n

big number<\/h2>\n

$375 million. That\u2019s the total cost of the $250 million production budget and the $125 million marketing spend behind \u201cThe Odyssey,\u201d Variety<\/u> reported, meaning the movie has a high bar to clear to become profitable. The movie, though, is expected to be a hit, though, as plenty of screenings (some of which are held at odd times<\/u>, like 3 a.m., to accommodate eager fans) have sold out as the movie has smashed ticket sales records<\/u>. Nolan is also no stranger to big box office hits: he\u2019s one of the highest-grossing directors of all time with more than $6 billion in total gross<\/u>, led by his \u201cDark Knight\u201d films and \u201cInception.\u201d<\/p>\n

tangent<\/h2>\n

Elon Musk, the world\u2019s wealthiest person, has ripped<\/u> into Nolan for being \u201cracist against the Greek people\u201d by hiring a diverse cast, including Black actress Lupita Nyong\u2019o and transgender actor Elliot Page. Musk has posted frequently about \u201cThe Odyssey,\u201d though some of his posts have been riddled with misinformation. Critics largely dismissed<\/u> Musk\u2019s anti-woke crusade, with a critic for the Arizona Republic<\/u> calling Musk\u2019s remarks \u201cracist and ugly.\u201d<\/p>\n
