Movie MAGA Tried to Cancel Scores Astonishing Rave Reviews

Melinda Sue Gordon/Universal Pic / Courtesy Universal PicturesChristopher Nolan’s adaptation of The Odyssey is being lauded by critics, despite MAGA’s attempts to condemn the film before it was even made public. Variety called it “an astonishing achievement,” adding that the performances from the star-studded cast were “genuinely grand.” The Independent said, “In The Odyssey, Nolan showcases visual trickery in a way you’ve never seen a few before.” Time Out’s film critic declared the film is a “dizzying mix of craft and spectacle that’s built to last,” and described it as “dense but accessible, packed with career-best work from the stacked cast.” IndieWire’s editor-at-large predicted Best Actor award nominations for Matt Damon, who plays Odysseus. Fandango and Rotten Tomatoes movie critic Erik Davis deemed the 3-hour spectacle an “absolute triumph” and crowned Oscar winner Nolan “one of the great filmmakers of our time.”Read more at The Daily Beast.

9 unrated LGBTQ+ movies and where to watch them
The MPAA — responsible for rating movies in the U.S. — is notorious for slapping LGBTQ+ movies with NC-17 ratings. The stigma around this dreaded rating means that theater chains will ban the film, and advertising gets tricky. An NC-17 rating is a commercial kiss of death, which is why Boys Don’t Cry and But I’m a Cheerleader both made cuts to satisfy the whims of the MPAA.
