Media reports have described the film as lacking humanity and labeled it a 'slopbuster' after viewers analyzed the content of its trailer.
Is the viral image of women in 'The Odyssey' authentic?

The story so far
A full-length AI-generated film adaptation of Homer’s epic has been released, positioning itself as a rival to a major motion picture directed by Christopher Nolan.

Coverage from outlets including IGN, CBC, Forbes, and the San Francisco Chronicle focuses on the contrast between the two productions.
Reports note that viral imagery associated with the AI film, specifically depicting women in revealing dresses, has circulated online. Critics have characterized the AI-generated content using terms like 'slopbuster' and questioned its lack of human elements.
