O'Dessa

The songs and actors were absolutely amazing. Its one of a kind of a beautiful love story and about hope and love amongst eachother whom we coexist with. Its was beautiful. The songs and the aesthetic. I love kelvin harrison jr and sadie sink together in this beautiful movie. Who knew a scorpio can make something with so much depth. Lol. This was more that what i thought it was going to be and it filled me with so much more. The main actors have such a bright future ahead for their careers because their movie resume is filled with so much quality. This movie does not deserve such a low rating.

I am an avid film geek but certainly not an expert. I took this film for what it was, with no expectations and just enjoyed the ride.

For me, I was hooked from the start, music was good, lyrics were very touching and the bizarre sci Fi world was a great touch.

Sometimes we over think our experiences and forget to just enjoy the moment and for me, I enjoyed every moment in this film. So much so; I am playing the album.

The cast were good and Sadie really shone and I enjoyed watching her. I'm sure we will see more of her in the decades to come.

Don't forget to open your minds, cherish the message given in this film and enjoy.

O'Dessa is more than a dystopian musical thriller-it is an allegory woven with classical mythology, Orwellian warnings, and the transformative power of music. Beautifully shot in a bleak yet eerily mesmerizing future, the film reimagines Homer's Odyssey through the lens of a world where art and individualism are crushed under the weight of a sadistic, yet handsome, gleeful, hypo-manic TV Host/Dictator.

O'dessa is the young woman who is a symbol of resilience and with her inherited musical talent as a weapon, she embarks on a journey to ramble: from her folk ballads, evolving into folk-rock, hard rock, and finally an electrifying Eurobeat.

She busks her way through a grotesque totalitarian system where a single, omnipresent TV channel broadcasts torture as mass amusement-echoes Orwellian nightmares while recalling the grand, satirical spectacles of O Brother, Where Art Thou.

Her love interest is a very personable guy, another victim of a broken society.

This deep human connection of "one"-ness, could transcend to society, if she can fulfill her destiny by retrieving her father's six string guitar ... plus one.

Every aspect of O'dessa is meticulously crafted, from its haunting cinematography to its exhilarating soundtrack that fuses classic storytelling with modern soundscapes: power of art to challenge, inspire, and ultimately, free.

This is the film of our age: thrilling, deeply symbolic, and utterly unforgettable.

People say they want original stories, and O'dessa definitely brings one.

This film visually stunning with a bold, stylized, apocalyptic world, and in my opinion, the soundtrack is genuinely beautiful-Sadie Sink's voice is incredible and especially held my attention during those parts.

On the other hand, I didn't fully connect to the romance as much as I wanted to, but knowing it's rooted in the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice helped me appreciate it more. As a rock opera told almost entirely through song, it won't be for everyone, but it's ambitious, unique, and I got the message it was putting out there.

This is a musically,visually,and dramatically a stunning piece of original cinema. It was billed as a "Rock Opera" and that's truly what it is. It isn't a hugely original story or premise,but it's an immensely original artistic take on one. I'm Genx,so I'm acutely aware of how Cult Classics are born. I really hope this gets the immediate attention it deserves,but seeing as it was a Hulu release I'm sure it's going to have to overcome that stigma overtime to find it's audience. But MARK MY WORDS!!! In 10-15 years when Sadie Sink is a gigantic star because of the ridiculous talent she showcased in this art film,people will see and understand this review. If you see it before then,do yourself a favor and watch it. She,and all the other performers actually sang that music.
