Odyssey (2 Stars)


This is the fourth film in the Stuttgart Fantasy Film Festival.

Some films at the festival divide the audience. This is a film that was disliked by everyone I spoke to. It takes place in London's underbelly, showing the city at its worst. Natasha Flynn runs a small estate agency, employing only three people. She has plans of expanding and becoming a large company. To do this she gets into debt, borrowing money from the wrong people. It's worsened by the fact that she's addicted to cocaine. Some shady characters offer to let her off her debts if she helps them kill another estate agent, so she asks for help from a mysterious hitman known only as The Viking.

So much about the film makes no sense. Characters come and go, and I can't make out who they are or why they're doing what they're doing. The film is a mess.
