C'mon Dan, quit sugar coating it, and tell us what you really think.

That’s a shame. It should have been an epic.

Agreed. Borefest. I had hopes for it but it did nothing for me

Even the acting was terrible, which is surprising because it has a decent cast. The movie was crude, as well.

Re: Napoleon 2023
Well, poo. Sorry to hear that. Can't say I'm shocked, though. Historical accuracy is modern Hollywood's Waterloo.
For any film that I'm on the fence about watching, I like to check Pitch Meeting, Honest Trailers, and the Critical Drinker on YouTube. These short reviews give me an idea whether or not the film is for me.

Very hollow and disappointing! Great battle scenes though but you can’t live on that alone. Well deserved Oscar nominations for Production and Costume Design. The coronation ceremony was beautifully done with Jacques Louis David being shown painting his epic.
