Director Christopher Nolan's new film 'Odyssey' topped the box office, drawing 290,000 viewers on its opening day.

The opening-day audience for 'Odyssey' marks the third-highest record among films released this year, following 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' and 'Hope'.

The film's visual aesthetics bringing Greek mythology to life, its modernized narrative, and the passionate performances of the actors are receiving favorable reviews from audiences.

'Spider-Man 4', which settled in second place, has accumulated a cumulative audience of 4.4 million.

As both 'Odyssey' and 'Spider-Man 4' are garnering positive reviews, they are expected to drive a joint box office success for the time being.

In particular, Hollywood's prominent couple Tom Holland and Zendaya appearing in both films is being cited as another major attraction.
