Following the global premiere of “The Odyssey” in London last month, early critic reactions have been largely positive, but some audience members raise complaints about sound levels at screenings. Multiple viewers post on social media that the film is excessively loud and that they have difficulty understanding dialogue. Some reports describe audiences receiving earplugs at cinemas, indicating that exhibitors are responding to sound-related concerns. Several attendees say the high volume affects their viewing experience, with claims that they leave with headaches or migraines. At least one user says they have seen the film multiple times but still cannot make out a specific line of dialogue during a Cyclops scene. The reports do not describe formal complaints or technical findings, but they point to a pattern of viewer feedback focused on audio volume and clarity. The film’s reception among critics in initial coverage remains separate from these audience reactions, which highlight comfort and intelligibility issues during certain screenings.
