Critics Consensus

Sadie Sink manages to rise above the schlock in a doomed rock-opera that sadly loses its purpose and steam while rambling to the finish line.

Ben Travis

Empire Magazine

For all its originality, O’Dessa can’t help but get tangled up in its own mythology, dragged down by a romance that never sizzles.

Rated: 2/5

Is a cliché turned on its head still a cliché? “O’Dessa” will keep you wondering, and that counts for something.

A rock musical like 'O’Dessa' only works if it sufficiently rocks, and 'O’Dessa' somewhat rocks.

“O’Dessa” might draw inspiration from the likes of David Bowie, but it’s nowhere near as electric.

When the credits roll, O'Dessa leaves you floating somewhere between dream and reality, melodies still humming in your head like fireflies trapped in a jar.

The biggest miss is the music is forgetable. However, the performances are great.

While this movie may not be for everyone, it certainly struck a chord (pun intended) with me. As a lover of all things 80s, the film resonated deeply, and the music was easily a top 10 soundtrack for me. While the movie was a bit weird and perhaps dragged slightly in spots, I greatly enjoyed it. Sadie Sink shows she's capable of easily carrying a movie, and her vocals are outstanding.

This film proved to be a compelling experience layered with both strengths and shortcomings. It offered a poignant reflection on the cost of inhabiting narratives shaped by others. Many tend to gravitate toward comforting illusions rather than confront unsettling truths, but such is the nature of the human condition. Dearest Baby Sadie: "Veritas vos liberabit" the truth shall set you free. And yes, Wizards appear to operate on a plane of insight and mastery that often surpasses their Witch counterparts. I hold profound respect and love for the duality within each of us, the interplay of shadow and light. Call it a "grey area" if you must, but I’ve found it to be a space of remarkable potential and authenticity. This is my most candid reflection: the film wasn't bad by any means, but it didn’t fully resonate with me. In overall terms, I’d give it a solid 2.5, not a failure, but not quite a favorite either.

Odessa is the daughter of a rambler , a rambler singer, who is the prophesy redeemer of the post apocalyptic world with a magic guitar. Cool songs on this rock musical and it has my favorite vegan actor Sadie Sink 🍿🍿🍿🍿/5 on Hulu

I can't believe I actually finished this. Songs were boring. World was annoying. Man entirely too effeminate and then they die. The end.

The beginning is a tad bit slow, it will make sense as you watch. Great movie.
