Review by escamillio

If you know something about Napoleon, you wonder why they reduce him to a sex maniac. If you don't, you will wonder what the hell the story is even about. Napoleon is either depressed or has sex with his wife. The person that transformed France and a lot of Europe, the military genius, the talented law maker, does not exist in this movie. It feels like a badly written soap opera. Historical situations that were important get a name in a subtitle and mostly nothing else - what happened, why it happened, who the people involved were and what the significance ot that situation is, is anybody's guess, because it never happens on screen. Who on earth thought it was a good idea to spend two hundred million dollars on this complete waste of time?
