I've missed historical epics that just get to go balls out like this. Probably getting ahead of myself but I'm getting Gladiator vibes from this one.

What do you guys think?

Ridley Scott tends to be very hit or miss on his movies, but epic historical dramas, he does not miss!

I remember being disappointed by Kingdom of Heaven in theaters only to find out 20th Century Fox forced Scott to slim down a lot of the movie. The Director's Cut of that movie is one of my all time favorites.

I'm really looking forward to watching this!

Scott is a supremely talented, but inconsistent, director. It's always a crap shoot with him.

This looks very promising, though.

Should have cast Danny DeVito as Napoleon...

Looks promising.

I'm excited, Phoenix is immensely talented and Ridley Scott can be absolutely brilliant at his best. It's been to long since a proper epic released, and Napoleon is a fascinating figure to portray in a movie like this. Here's to hope!

One of the most interesting characters of his century now immortalized by such a Director like him ... Can't say, if this has the potential to become quite the epic or a flawed tragedy, especially when you know what happened historically to him after the end of his reign.

Looks like it has potential. But Ridley Scott is extremely inconsistent as a filmmaker.

Kind of throws me off that they're all speaking English. Feel it would be much more immersive if they spoke French instead.

Napoleon is the GOAT with Vlad Tepes, Attila and Gengis Khan ! ^^
