The Odyssey has a clear political message warning about isolationism as the bronze age came to a close. The themes were clearly applicable to today as it warned about the folly of war (which it doesn't romanticize) for less than honorable purposes.
This is obviously not meant to be just a simple adventure and the deliberate casting choices were perhaps also meant to rub against the fragile sensibilities of conservatives.
The film is brilliantly executed in many ways with scenes that are genuinely captivating and enthralling.
Bravo Mr Nolan!
