It'z a Gre8 Movie
Morgan Campbell Goochland V.a 8th Grade 01/03/2k1 The Odyssey was a great movie. It was like the first educational movie I ever like. It was about this guy name Odysseus who got called to a war called the Trojan War. He was called to this war the same day his son was born. Ten years later he though of the idea of the Trojan horse which ended the war. This movie was not about him fighting in the Trojan war is about his journey trying to get back to his island Ithaca, and he also wanted to get home to his wife Penelope, and his son Telemachus. On his journey he ran into many gods. Some where good gods and some where bad gods. He had a guardian god named Athene. He also had a god that who made is journey twice as hard his name was Poseidon. He had a lot of different adventures hard and easy on his way back to Ithaca. But he finally made it but when he first got there he didn't go strait to his wife. The God Athens turned Odysseus into a old poor man. So Odysseus went into Ithaca and he told his son about it. So they had all the men try to do a test to when Odysseus wife. None of them could get the bow and arrow stringed or throw the 12 axes. So Odysseus in his descries stood up and stringed the bow and arrow and but the arrow throw the 12 axes. Then that turned him back into Odysseus. Then him and his son killed all he guys in that room for betrayding him. I would courage you to see this movie if you where learning about the Odyssey. It is a very good movie.
