Napoleon is a spectacle-filled action epic that details the checkered rise and fall of the iconic French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, played by Oscar®-winner Joaquin Phoenix (Best Actor, Joker, 2020). Against a stunning backdrop of large-scale filmmaking orchestrated by legendary director Ridley Scott, the film captures Bonaparte's relentless journey to power through the prism of his addictive, volatile relationship with his one true love, Josephine, showcasing his visionary military and political tactics against some of the most dynamic practical battle sequences ever filmed. Written by David Scarpa.

This movie was a historical hit job! They made him weak, pathetic and to top it off a terrible lover. The real Napolian had epic charisma, the likes of which few mortals have.

When it comes to history I like movies to be accurate. It was all over the place. Hopefully the extended version will be better. Honestly, should have been a 10 part miniseries. At least that why it wouldn’t be fast paced and full of inaccuracies from a British perspective about French history.

They don't play Abba at any point during the movie or credits, don't waste your time
