"If there is ever a movie made on my life in the far future, Joaquin Phoenix shall play my role" - Napoleon Bonaparte

"The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies" - Napoleon

Fun fact: Napoleon is the most portrayed historical character on film. There have been 194 movies about him!

The bit where Napoleon says to the British Ambassador, ‘ you think you’re so great because you have boats!’ Made me laugh out loud 😂

"I'm the first to admit it when I make a mistake... I simply never do." *Absolute chills*

if I don’t hear him saying “There’s nothing we can do.” in the movie i’m gonna cry

Things that should have been changed about this movie imo: 1. More Battle, Less Josephine. The trailer attracts us with epic scenes of battle and glory that we’d associate with Napoleon, exciting calvary charges, firing on the ice, but the main plot really revolves around his relationship with his first wife, and her impact on his life. 2. Better portray his rise to power. The coup scene was hilarious and great, but the transition to Napoleon being a military leader to an arrogant leader is too swift. I wanna see him earn it, I wanna see him getting dirty and aiming the cannons himself, and gaining the respect of his men, and they did deliver with the fort scene, but after that we rarely see any honorable actions by Napoleon. 3. Expand more on his downfall. Napoleon comes back from his first exile, and we immediately cut to Waterloo. It’s a great battle scene, but part of what makes his downfall so great is the betrayal and politically scheming going on by the monarchs around. His own brother betrayed him after being appointed by Napoleon as King of Sweden, if I recall, maybe more drama in that department would have been good. 4. Show more of Napoleon winning. I, at least, came to see Napoleon bring Europe to its knees, and while we do have some of that, there’s just not enough. There’s just way too much of Napoleon and his wife, let me see him divide and conquer, destroy his enemies in more than just montages. I mean come on, his tactics and strategies were the _basis_ of most militaries after him. 5. We needed a better portrayal of his death. Show us the sick, disheveled, and depressed Napoleon that was in his last exile, not him with a grey beard and uniform, suddenly slumping over. Especially because they tell us his true last words after, despite just depicting them completely differently. Overall, they focused a little too much on Napoleon’s personal life and drama, and less on the legend that _is_ Napoleon. Of course, I’m looking at him through romanticized, unrealistic glasses, but that doesn’t matter when I, and I believe most other people watching, came to see that. It’s fun to pick this movie apart, but you have to take into account how much history, and how many events a buffed up story of Napoleon would have. The runtime would be around 4 hours. They did a good job, Joaquin Phoenix is great as Napoleon, the cinematography is beautiful, but story and plot wise, if definitely could have been improved. That’s my take, at least.

Two emperors the king of war and the king of epics clashed. One met his Waterloo and the other another Oscar. RS can do no wrong! Fantastic movie.

It’s kind of nice to have the “historical” epic movie back. I’ve missed these kind of films.

“There’s nothing we can do”

Thank u guys

"Death is inutile if you are remembered in the hearts of men." -Napoleon Bonaparte

Once again, remember that Ridley Scott is 85 years old and is still directing epics.

As a historian, who had to study Napoleon's life inside and out. I cannot wait for this movie .

Hey Sony Entertainment! You did Great Job!!

>Make a movie about Napoleon >Concentrate on his lover instead great idea, I can't wait for a movie called Hitler but instead of concentrating on ww2 or his rise to power and downfall it would concentrate on his relationship with Eva Braun, and only at the end would there be a 10-minute fight with the Soviets or a movie called Lenin but instead of being about Russian Revolution it would only consist of his story with Nadezhda Krupskaya

"I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it’s a comedy." - Napoleon

I've been thirsting for this movie without even knowing it. I wish for more massive scale historical epics

Phoenix has always smashed it but now in his later years he's really putting on pure performances

It was great to watch this with my class and with our history teacher. Truly memorable experience...not only because of the film.

“Finally, a movie I’m looking forward to watching”. - Napoleon Bonaparte

Ridley bringing back historical epics!!!! Please let this be the full 4 hour director cut. You can’t contain Napoleon in just 2 hours

The real Napoleon slumped in the saddle and never had an elegant seat. He also never fell off.

Now I can't wait to be blessed with yet another great performance by Joaquin Phoenix

Oppenheimer, Killers of Flower Moon, and Napoleon all in 1 year. Good movies ARE BACK 👏🏻

"I used to think my life was a tragedy. But now I realize... it's a victory." - Napoleon Bonaparte

Despite the criticism that the movie has received, and it being for the most part valid, I think the movie was great. I left the cinema with my breath still heavy from the scene of The Battle of Austerlitz and my heart still in my throat from the scene of The Battle of Waterloo. While it might have not been as historically accurate and battle-oriented as this trailer suggested and we expected, it did Napoleon’s legacy justice with that exact feeling of shortness of breath and your heart in your throat. The movie was exceptionally made. Wonderfully cast, fantastically acted by Joaquin, phenomenally scored with tracks perfectly fitting. The cinematography of the film kept me in awe with each new set introduced and the realism of each and every single gory detail never failed to make gasp at least a little. The film might have not told Napoleon’s story perfectly accurate, but it did get the greatness of his legacy across. And I think, that for the people that do not have as much historical knowledge to be able to point each inaccuracy out and ruin it for them, this movie showcased the great impact of Napoleon enough. A great movie for a great leader.

I've heard lots of criticism about this film, but I just watched it yesterday and I'm in awe how fantastic it is. The visuals, the characters, the love story, everything was incredible. You can hate or love him, but this man is one of the most important person in human history and is a legend forever.

Thank goodness movie directors still making historical epics to this day

Ridley Scott and Joaquin Phoenix. Another Oscar incoming. Can't wait for this masterpiece. We need more movies like these.

One of Napoleon's best films, a very beautiful film.

The resounding drums, triumphant brass, and sweeping strings of epic music inject movie trailers with a profoundly thrilling ambience. This style of bold, operatic composition brings an unmatched sense of grandeur. The full symphonic sound washes over you, instant goosebumps as that exhilarating melody unfurls. No words are needed to feel the mood - whether tensions simmering into war cries or heroes rising against the odds to turn the tide. The music amplifies the high stakes hinted onscreen into palpable excitement. These epic anthems punctuate trailers with exclamation points, ensuring the adventure ahead leaves an indelible impression whether it features clashing armies or character-driven drama. The marriage of epic music's unrelenting crescendo and carefully edited visuals forms a siren song, drawing us right into imagined new worlds brimming with action, emotion and spectacle. Who can resist such powerful musical storytelling, the ultimate appetizer promising grand purpose behind these tales? We have those ingenious sound composers to thank for trailers that spark such strong senses of destiny through their triumphant symphonic suites alone - our hearts quicken and imaginations ignite.

Such poetic that Joaquin Phoenix plays again the role of an Emperor 23 years later the first time Ridley Scott directed him.

Yes, yes, and yes. Bring back the historic epics genre to front of cinema. Classic already

My mate's in this! :D 0:22s Left side, yelling. He was also a caterer for the cast/crew in Gladiator! In 2050 he'll have a lead role I expect. :D

Super film !!!!… now reading and watching about napoleon ..

"The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can't always be sure of their authenticity" - Napoleon

about time we get back to epic historical films like this, its been too long since gladiator

An extremely remarkable and immersive production🎉👌👌

There are millions of amazing historical events and stories that would be awesome to see portrayed in the movies. It’s shame only a few directors have the ability to make such films and are willing. Id be watching movies all the time if studios decided to fund these kinds of films rather than another superhero movie or a non original reboot. Historical epics are hard to beat!

“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” - Napoleon Bonaparte

I can't wait to watch Napoleon, it's a great movie.

Thanks a lot Ridley Scott, i'm proud to be french 🙂

To be honest, Napoleon's life was so rich in events, wars and intrigues that we need like 10 season TV show instead of 2-3 hour movie.

Epic visual effects!

Гледах целият филм и беше изключително готин и екстремен.Главният герой който беше Наполеон изиграва много добре ролята си като крал и генерал на битките случващи се главно във филма.🙂🙂

Each generation should have a Napoleonic movie, this story is so enormous you could tell it a hundred different times and it would still be mind boggling.

"Courage isn't having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don't have strength." - Napoleon Bonaparte

I seen this at the theater it's really good

Gerçeği yansıtan tarihi filmleri seviyorum. Harika olmuş 💯

This film better be atleast 3 hour long considering how much they need to condense in one movie

Enfin un bon film Napoléon ! There is nothing we can do...

This trailer is such a banger compared to end result..

I don't think a movie of 2-3 hours can comprehend the complexity of Napoleon's life, but it can capture the character, can't wait!

I'm glad there's still a market for these epic type of films. Especially when it's done by Ridley Scott.

Amazing movie ❤ to be seen definitely

Now This is what you call an Epic Trailer!

Joaquin is PERFECT for this role AND NOT because of his stature but he has that death stare that is depicted in so many Napoleon portraits.

"Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily" -Napoleon Bonaparte

"JF saying smthing" Gives me chills!

Napoleon = Joker Duke of Wellington = Dr. Claw

For Ridley Scott to be in his 80s and still making these energetic epics just showcases that age is truly a number. He, George Miller, and Martin Scorsese still putting out cinematic epics in their older ages.

"My enemies are many, my equals are none." As a NTW enjoyer this has to be one of the most exciting trailer drops of the year

Cok super bir filmdi bayildim

Napoleon was in his 20’s this dude looks like he’s in his 50’s. Come on man!

This movie needs to be atleast 3 hours long. It's going to be sooo good i can just feel it.

“I’m the first one to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do” Epic

Well, at least the trailers were good.

For all the struggles, sweat and toil, thou shalt be rewarded with yet another Oscar.

"I used to think my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's an historical epic/period piece." - Napoleon Bonaparte

YES YES YES. Finally the Napoleonic era is getting a little bit of the attention it deserves!

The great Kubrick and Ridley Scott both attempted the Everest (though Saint-Bernard) of painted this man.

My favorite scene of the movie is when Napoleon fought together with Harry Potter to defeat Darth Vader!!!

Napolen fought about 60 battles during his career, he won 52 of them a phenomenal success rate probably without equal throughout history, the film looks amazing.

Oppenheimer from Nolan, Dune: Part 2 from Villenueve, and Napoleon from Ridley Scott. What an epic year for epics this is! Cinema was on life support, but these three directors are refusing to let it die!

Amazing 🎉

After watching I think Ridley hates Napoleon

Great movie, well done to the producers⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As a French I'm certain of one thing : in my country, this movie will touch everyone, for the better and for the worse.

Joaquin Phoenix took the "don't let them know your next move" to a whole new level

Cok mukemmel bir filmdi tesekkurler

Danny DeVito would have been perfect as Napoleon.

“I’m the first to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do.” That’s one bone-chilling line.

Boy History isn't bored ☠️

Amazing film who want to watch retro .. congragulation

My only concern is, how the hell do you capture a career like Napoleon's in one movie? Over a period of 25 years, he literally led one of the most interesting lives in history, during one of the most interesting times in history. Countless movies and miniseries have focussed on just a few aspects of his life, and the French Revolution that precipitated his rise to power. More books have been written about him than about anyone else, ever.

Napoleon: there's is nothing we can do...

God what is it about the world today that companies insist on playing a modern music soundtrack over a trailer. It just doesn't always work, especially for fantasy, or historical epics.

There is a reason why mostly everyone knows or recognizes who Napoleon is, he impacted our world forever. This film looks EPIC!

Bravo

Despite the inaccuracies, this is an awesome movie, dont know why people hate it so much

“It’s about time there was a great film befitting of the great Napoleon!” - Napoleon

Great director and cast enjoy watching

Harika film hep izledigim filmler izledigim filmlere tekrar tekrar bakmaktan bikmadim istesem her zmn bakiyorum bayliyorum 👍👍🔥🌺

“Victory belongs to the most persevering.”- Napoleon Bonaparte

Cok merak sarıyor en zevkle izledigim sinema filmi of off mükemmel ❤

Muy buena película 10/10

From Commodus to Joker to Napoleon! This man never fails to impress!

The most mind-boggling thing about Buonaparte was he was able to defeat 4 armies in 6 days with an army less than half the size of his foes, and this happened in the twilight period of his career in the Seine valley.

Seslendirme mukemmell yaa bayildimmmmmm🎉🎉🎉🎉 sevdimm
