I really got that vibe that they were playing fast and loose with history and was so detached from real french history, you couldnt be more far away. Many of the scenes I would find insulting if I was French, especially with the scenes with his wife and some of the out of context pomp scenes. A huge fail in my book, part of the fare from Hollywood these days. I think only a French Director with French actors could make this film good. It really felt like they had a cowboy playing Napoleon, I wonder if Ridley Scott has even been to France after watching this film.
