Why the scores diverge

The Odyssey highlight: The film prominently features Odysseus's reflective moralizing and thematic messaging through dialogue, especially in its opening scenes, which suggests a message-first approach to storytelling.
About Time highlight: Dialogue occasionally leans into life lessons and moral reflections, but these moments feel integrated rather than preachy or forced.
About Time: Characters serve the story naturally without feeling inserted for symbolic representation or demographic checkboxes.
