Napoleon’s story has so much potential to make a great movie yet for some reason we don’t have it
We do. Napoleon (2002), with Christian Clavier, John Malkovich, Gerard Depardieu, Heino Ferch. A European co-production.
@@svene.3856 You are Right! I forgot about that movie!
Instead of Hitler
We do: King Vidor 8 hour epic of War and Peace
I love 1970 Waterloo film
"Send in the infantry, take their position on the higher ground!" *Infantry charges down a hill*
Bro doesn't know how hills work
@@dontaycortez2397could you explain it then because in the film they’re clearly charging down hill into the valley which is precisely the exact opposite of what napoleon did at austerlitz
With respect, I am by means an expert, but, nevertheless, I believe Napoleon had the high ground at Austerlitz.
@@stevenfletcher9287 no he didn’t at the start, he purposefully gave up the high ground so as to trick the coalition into believing he was retreating
@@stevenfletcher9287no he did not, go read up
For anybody who doesn't know a lot about history, just keep in mind that this scene, along with most of the movie, is quite insulting from a historical vantage point.
Austerlitz was a genius execution by Napoleon based on weather, terrain, element of surprise and knowing how the enemy was going to commit their forces.
Now that I've seen this, I start to wonder if all that stuff in "Alien" really happened the way Ridley Scott showed it.
LOL
Gold!
Ripley would never lie....
You mean to tell me Alien isnt historically accurate? I demand a refund
top comment :D
Wow I read about this battle. This scene about the ice is baffling. It really was Napoleon’s masterpiece but as portrayed by Ridley Scott it makes it seem like Napoleon’s tactics were on a par with a middle schooler’s daydream of a battle.
I agree with you. The angle from which Riddley Scott tells Napoleon is..... Childish and..... Disconcerting!!!...
Far from reality, in the end (in fine).....
I never knew Napoleon could bark an order and it was obeyed instantly.
Look at this famous early cartography of Napolean's disastrous Russian campaign: 'Charles Minard’s Flow Map of Napoleon’s Russian Campaign of 1812' The losses to his Grand Armee are beyond belief>
@septimuswarrensmith879 He has am abrudly high win % and is generally regarded as one of the greatest military geniuses of all time. Your countriee military brass probaly studied him. Losing a few battles does not mean he's bad
Or that cannons could be aimed, fired, and reloaded as fast as modern artillery.
This is an insult to the tactical masterpiece of real Austerlitz battle.

"Pay no attention to the mass of people retreating, focus all cannon fire on one single rider getting away for some reason."
that could follow the rider way beyond the actual range of the cannons.. and very rapid fire at that.

I usually love Joaquin’s performances, but here it feels like he is the joker character who was asked to play Napoleon
Am I an idiot or does this scene not make any sense, napoleon orders the infantry to charge to take the high ground (which is what he did at Austerlitz) but in the film the infantry are charging down the hill into the valley. Is this one of the most incompetent scenes in file history or am I missing something?
You're not missing anything. That is indeed a stupid tactic.
Well, since they speak english , why not this 😀
@@lepaul26 because that’s for the audiences sake, there is no reason for them to run down the hill
Great film!!!
I thought the US civil war a good movie film
This movie had tremendous potential, but the script was terrible.
I totally agree with you.
Was it because of the recent writer's strike? 🤔
@@PauloAdriano-zo2ng Not so sure, you can check if you want.
This is a terrible rendition of the Battle of Austerlitz, which was a fight that lasted all day, with the French giving ground slowly so that the allies thought they were winning, drawing them into a tactical trap. The icy lake part is true, but a bit overdone here. Overall, a complete misrepresentation of the battle, not even close.
more than a bit overdone - the frozen-over water being destroyed by cannon fire as the allies retreat is not only debated on whether or not it even happened, but also only resulted in scores of casualties according to known accounts.
There were two or three Russian bodies found near a lake, the whole story of fleeing Russians drowning is a total myth.
It's a movie. What do you want an exact reenactment? Go to one of those then.
@@NobodyQuiteLikeMe Wow, someone pissed on your ammunition bread and took your brandy ration this morning?
@@NobodyQuiteLikeMe Not even an exact reenactment, just an even basic attempt at staying authentic to the original events. Even if the details are wrong, uniforms, wrong flags or something like that, you could try at least to present something that is at its core the experience of the battle for those involved. Napoleon's victory at Austerlitz was a captivating mix of strategic genius, applied military theory, and tactical opportunity. It shaped Napoleon's reputation in Europe and lives on as his masterpiece until this day. This scene presents a mind-numbingly simple plan ("what if we hide and then surprise them") and tries to pass it off as an example of Napoleon's genius. I understand when people make a point about "we had to change some things to make it a more entertaining movie," and that logic totally applies in a lot of cases. But so many times, the real history is just as fascinating and cinematically spectacular as the crackpot fever dream mishmashes of semi-historically adjacent events that filmmakers decide to put onscreen.
If there are any casual watchers who don't know how this battle really went down, here's a brief synopsis so you get a sense of how truly awful this depiction is.
Napoleon initially occupies the high ground of the Pratzen Heights the day before, but gives it up in order to lure the allied army into a trap. The allied army, seeing the heights abandoned, seize it. Both armies rest for the night. The next morning, there is a heavy fog that obscures much of the French army on the lower plateau, but the allies can clearly see that the French right flank is weak. They plan to move their left wing off the heights to blow through the French right flank, then turn to envelope Napoleons army. This is exactly what Napoleon wanted them to do. Marshal Davout (seen in this scene, but never named. He's the general with the glasses) arrives on the French right to secure it, holding the allied advance. The allies move troops from their centre to reinforce, which weakens their central position. At that moment, the fog lifts and Napoleon orders the main body of his army to attack the allied centre, which is quickly taken. The allied right flank is now threatened with encirclement, and their commander orders a retreat. Napoleon swings his army around to envelope the allies still fighting Davout. The allies only have one line of retreat, so they flee across a frozen pond, which napoleon blasts with cannon. Its not particularly effective, only a few allied soldiers are drowned, but it doesn't matter because Napoleon has complete victory.
As you can see, this scene is about as far away from the real battle as it is possible to depict. I was half expecting napoleon to say "unleash the dragons" with how much of this scene is fantasy.
I am surprised that Ridley Scott didn´t depict how well Napoleon used to place his machinegun positions and his use of blitzkrieg counterattacks with tanks...
Ridley should have used Bigfoot to attack at his battle scenes because his battles are pure fantasy.
Napoleons's Austerlitz whole battle plan: staring intensively and having his cannons under blankets.
serious?
@@maurice-kn4mv Come on.
it's cold
they need sleep too 😂
@@Markkiisi Well they won't shrink
when your lead actor LOOKS like he's trying to act there's a problem.
Nothing can be deduced from these scenes of the Battle of Austerlitz. I think Ridley Scott should have used a narrator and a "cartographic view of the battlefield" from the village of Bosenitz in the north to the village of Telnitz in the south to depict the battle. The battle was not decided by any hiding under the tent, but by "Napoleon's idea" to lure the enemy into a predictable attack on the village of Pratzen and the Pratzen mountain (height). The day before the battle, Napoleon was in Pratzen, 01.12.1805. Napoleon in the evening of 01.12. withdrew the army to the Brno Olmouc road. On the Pratzen plain, he placed the reinforced Vandame division. From Pratzen to Telnitz there was only the division of General Le Grand and the Reserve Corps of Light Cavalry under General Beaumont. All the rest of the army was on the Brno-Olmouc road, the 5th Corps (Marshal Lann) defended the road near the village of Bosenitz. Due to the configuration of the battlefield, Napoleon lured the Austrians and Russians into attacking Pratzen and the Pratzen Heights, as well as the villages of Sokolnitz and Telnitz. Moving from north to south at 6 o'clock in the morning, the division of St. Hillarion Napoleon sent from the road towards Sokolnitz to "draw" the enemy to attack towards Sokolnitz. "Old and New Vineyards" remained empty in the center of the battle. General Vandamme's division "flew" into that area. With this, the Austro-Russian lines were broken. With this, Napoleon turned the battle line from north-south to east-west. For the final blow, Napoleon had the entire Guard, Bernadotte's 1st corps, the reserve cuirassier corps, the newly arrived division led by Marshal Davout towards Telnitz and Sokolnitz. The enemy remained disorientated. This ingenious idea of Napoleon could be clearly presented with the help of a map and a few words of the narrator. PS The Battle Of Waterloo Scene is also superficial. I watched the movie a second time and the whole movie is in my opinion: superficial. PS Austerlitz symbolizes the peak of Napoleon as a man, statesman, soldier...Waterloo symbolizes a tired Napoleon, who doesn't even believe in himself. This should have been the main motive of the movie "Napoleon". When a man is sure of what he does, then fortune follows him. Against a tired and insecure man, all the forces turned against him The Battle of Marengo is the beginning of the success of the young Napoleon. From the victory at Marengo, Napoleon begins to be a soldier and a statesman with ambition: "The world is served to me". "Marengo" triggered an unstoppable greatness syndrome in Napoleon. He was basically just a soldier with talent. "Up to a certain point" man can control and direct historical events. There are historical points of "peak amplitude" when events begin to flow in a determined manner that we humans no longer control. This can be seen in events from the French Revolution of 1789 to Waterloo and the Congress of Vienna in 1815. In the Revolutionary events, the hustle and bustle of events, Napoleon simply slipped through the legs of Robespierre and Saint-Gist. The rest is history.
I agree... but I think it should be hard to show from a filmmaker to an average person, how complex and efficient Napoleon´s tactics were. Still a nice movie to see some moments in Napoleon´s life
It is difficult to make a film under such a broad title "Napoleon"@@germancampos1498
It is difficult to make a movie under such a broad title "Napoleon". One cannot avoid the political background with the figure of Napoleon, since the French Revolution...Jacobins, Brumaire, Germinal, Thermidor...Danton, Robespierre, Directory, Consulate, Empire, Code Napoléon. Love life, Napoleon the politician, Napoleon the soldier...Wars against the Coalition of European Monarchies...Napoleon's role in overthrowing feudalism in Europe...What problems did Napoleon leave Europe as a legacy? Very complicated! What did Napoleon actually have in his head as a plan? Improvisation?@@germancampos1498
Another guy that thinks he knows it all. Do you study ALL war History. Or just Napoleon? Thats when you will be well rounded. Get outta here. Rivoli was his best. When he picked up the flag and almost charge the causeway. But his men would not follow.
@@long-distancerecon6364 More about Austerlitz!
I outlined Napoleon's Plan A in case the battlefield of Austerlitz was covered in the fog that is common in December on the slopes of the Alps. Before the battle, the landscape was shrouded in morning fog for days. The fog was especially needed in the center of the battle line, on the Pratzen plain, where Napoleon placed the Vandame division so that the enemy could not see the division. Apart from Lan's 5th Corps, the rest of the army on the Brno-Olmoutz road was hidden by the forest along the road. (1st Corps, Guards and Cuirassier Corps, Marshal Murat) If the Austro-Russian Army had seen the Vandame Division and vigorously attacked Le Grand Division at Telnitz and Sokolnitz, that division on the right wing of the Grand Armee would have collapsed. But Napoleon foresaw that possibility as well. Divisions of St. Hillarion (which had been moving towards Pratzen since 6 a.m.) and Bessiere's Guards Division which was on the Brno Olmoutz road and was closest to the line from the village of Pratzen to the village of Kobelnitz. In that case, the armies would be placed in two "L"s. The Grand Armee would again have a great advantage if the French army was in the "inner part of the "two letters L" of the front line. Namely, Napoleon could manipulate the movement of units within his line from the "inner side of the front". Also, the French artillery was on that part of the front. The Austro-Russian army would not have had time to move its artillery. Marshal Davout was moving towards the battle and was arriving right on the stretch of line between Pratzen and Sokolnitz at 10 o'clock. And in this case of "plan B" Napoleon would have won the battle only with greater losses. Plan C - If something goes wrong, Napoleon could retreat by road towards Brno.🤣
Hard to believe they had 0 clue that water is under the ice 😂
If you listen closely you can hear the sound of the Emperor himself rolling in his grave.
I feel like I can directly pinpoint at the heart of this movie’s main let-down: Ridley Scott wants the magic, but he doesn’t want to earn it truthfully, he wants to have it now, without any application of thought and care. Gladiator 2 seems unnecessary, and if the follow-up western he makes (presumably an adaptation of Wraiths of the Broken Land) is made and turns out to be good, then maybe that was the change of scenery he needed to escape the “historical-epic” pigeonhole he so often falls into.
The last great movie he made was Robin Hood with Russel Crowe imo but if you want more of a historical epic then the last great one he did was Kingdom of Heaven god damn that was a fantastic movie if you watch the directors cut the theatrical release cut to much out and was ass.
Waterloo 1970,is a great film.
Yes !!!
Soviet Union version of War and Peace is 100% way better..

It’s like Ridley Scott is on a mission to ruin his own reputation these last few years
A real sinker of a movie.
Someone took the time to make it....
They color-grade these films so much that it might as well be B&W
After "Kingdom of Heaven" you actually believed Ridley Scott was going to make a historically accurate film about Napoleon?
Kingdom of Heaven was never meant to be historically accurate he even admitted to the fact and honestly Kingdom of Heaven directors cut is a fantastic movie.
To paraphrase the late, great Douglas Adams: Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike the Battle of Austerlitz.
It's a shame for the great Napoleon. The brilliant victory at Austerlitz was turned into a farce. It was a great battle! With the complete defeat of two armies. And indeed, part of the retreating drowned in the river. It's just a fight for the village.
Well about the only historical thing about this is there was a battle of Austerlitz…
there were no lakes at Austerlitz battlefield..but small ponds..
I loved, and still do, the 1970 Waterloo movie. And given the technological advances since, had ultra-high expectations of this movie, the potential, what could be achieved, and was SO looking forward to it. I wish I hadn't have bothered.
A complete and utter let-down. You can, perhaps, forgive and forget some of the historical inaccuracies, but with something like Austerlitz, which was Napoloeon's masterpiece, you'd expect them to get a smidgeon of it right. Sadly, not.
I mean, even at the Battle of Waterloo... when they announce Blucher and the Prussians have arrived. In this debacle, Wellington looks to his right. The Allies were in the North facing Napoleon to the South. The Prussians came from the East, which when you're looking South is to the left. A small thing, but when you can't even get the basics right, what hope is there for the rest of it. Total garbage.
One thing I can say with absolute certainty, none of the film people has ever been to Slavkov u Brna (Austerlitz). And not one has ever even tried to study up on the facts. Napoleon did not sleep in a tent on the battlefield, he stayed in a very nice house in nearby town of Znojmo. They even have a plaque on the house commemorating his stay.
Love it in the 5:19 mark when the cavalrymans Sabre flopped in the wind.
Must be an OSHA sabre.
You'll never hear, "you'll put your eye out."
I had so much hope for this movie after watching the trailer. Twenty minutes into it, me and my wife wanted to just walk out from boredom. Some parts were interesting, yes. However, we just could not get into this one.....and I love history.
C'est hélas bien résumé, un film tellement décevant à tous les niveaux. Comment rater à ce point l'histoire extraordinaire d'un Grand homme et stratège militaire comme NAPOLÉON. En plus d'une mise en scène gâchée, Joaquin Foenix est très mauvais dans l'interprétation de l'empereur et Ridley Scott peut-être trop vieux pour une telle entreprise sur grand écran ? Triste à dire, un film qui a sombré dans les abysses comme les ennemis de la FRANCE sur le lac gelé d'Austerlitz, sa plus grande victoire stratégique, écrasante ce 2 décembre 1805. VIVE LA FRANCE 🇲🇫
@@Masquevertdupatriotetsonopinel , I agree. This is not Ridley Scott's finest work. His involvement was one of the biggest reasons I wanted to see this in theaters.
I share the feeling, I saw midway with my wife, spent a good part telling her yes it happened, the hour after the details not covered by the movie, we both saw napoleon, I spent the movie saying it didn't happen, our it didn't went like this, didn't bother to explain after the details, it was disappointing,

napoleon died at 51 and was 26 at the battle of austerlitz
36 at the battle of Austerlitz
Did the french speak english back then ? 🤔
people back then looked much older
Much of this scene was shot in the same location as the opening scene from Gladiator, and also the siege from Robin Hood.
Ridley likes this bit of Hankley common in Surrey UK...
Hopefully the miniseries being developed by Steven Spielberg for HBO will be better
I hope it still will get done, now that this movie was unsuccessful. I fear people in Hollywood will ascribe the failure to the topic rather to the movie simply being bad.
Apple TV+ could've made this into a series for streaming. Two seasons. Season 1 could've been the French Revolution. Season 2 could've been Napoleon.
If it is half as good as HBO’s Rome, I would watch it.
Like his last Indiana Nursing Home Jones movie
@user-kg8ik1qq6l the last Indiana Jones was directed by James Mangold, not Stephen Spielberg
Sir Ridley had produced some classics in the past and judging by recent interviews he believes he’s above reproach or criticism. The fact is, is that this is an absolute turd of a movie and he will never see it for what it is. Awful.
the guy who said "God fights on the side with the best artillery" is apparently hidding his artillary until the battle is alread won for some reason.
Good that Napoleon is dead, otherwise he 'd die now laughing seeing this scene.
'Battle scenes' straight out of cowboys and Indians. just looove Napoleons accent.
I haven't seen this movie, although I have always had a deep love of military history, especially that of Napoleon and Alexander the Great. I think I will continue not seeing it.
It's about historically accurate as Mel Gibson's the Patriot
But at least the Patriot is still a good movie. And it also doesn't pretend to be historically accurate. Its main characters and their story are all fictional. History in the Patriot is just the backdrop for the fictional story. Napoleon on the other hand pretends to tell the real story of Napoleon, who is not a fictional character but a real historical person.
Is this where the Time Bandits would show up?
Lol. Nice!
Kevin! 😂😂
😂
YES!
The film doesn't show the truth. On the right flank, where the retreating Russian-Austrian army was defeated by the third corps of General Davout, at that moment Napoleon was in the center, he was not in that area.
unbelieveable shit
The Ridley Scott school of history, I have heard that this did happen on the ice but there are a great many inaccuracies in the movie like Napoleon charging with his men on horseback at Waterloo he was sick that day he was told to rest because he was not feeling well that’s when Ney launched the cavalry charge against Wellington’s infantry squares.
This portrayal of Napoleon ranks with "The 300".for inaccurate portrayal of history as to be almost comedic.
Thank you
Nice game. Beautiful graphics. Almost realistic. Where can I find this game?
I cant wait to get this on 4k
At 5:43 someone's bayonet isn't on properly.
Imagine being 19 years old young man. You join the army and get shot on first battle. Then you die and no one even remembers you. So much glory.
7:25 ICE, IT'S A TRAP!!!
If only Admiral Ackbar were there to see such a thing. If he were there he would have been able to find a way to have the majority escape. Or at the very least maintain a more organized withdrawal. Guy was in a rag tag band of minor combat capable ships but was able to hold off a major enemy fleet and a massive fortification but still gave them a severe bloody nose even before the station was confirmed to be weak and about to be destroyed.
Yes, I know he was fictional, and an admiral is different from a field commander. But the tactics used were still sound and just using one of SW most famous lines "IT'S A TRAP!"
First thing I thought as well 😂😂😂😂😂 Mind programming of 70’s/80’s kids.
Literally the first thing I thought of was Admiral Akbar when that line was shouted.
Man these comments are golden 🤣😭🤣
Wow the French didn't lose a single soldier what a brilliant General
The opposing army didn't think to scout the terrain? A giant lake covered in ice, perhaps we should try and go around 🤔🤔

It’s physically painful to see that, in a movie about Napoleon, made my a self-proclaimed history enthusiast, Napoleon’s greatest victory gets…10 minutes of screen time.
Absolutely ridiculous film.
The battles were run as if they were in Roman times. Troops chaotically charging each other. Napoleon himself giving verbal orders to artillery.
Bad enough to be called childish.
I thought Napoleon did give direct orders to the artillery. I read that in some battles he personally was helping with the artillery, actually physically pointing the guns in the right direction. He was already commander of la Grande Armée then. So I would believe that he did give direct orders to the artillery.
What in Ferauds musket ball laden braids was Ridley Scott thinking….
Larga vida al emperador Napoleón su legado e historia jamás caerán en el olvido
Great portrayal of Napoleons tactics , they should of done it how it really happened would of been more intriguing

Non sense, nothing to do with Austerlitz. Difficult to portray such a battle in a 10 minutes clip. There is actually a good old movie about Austerlitz, and a good old one on Waterloo (1970).
In fairness Austerlitz would need a 2 Hr movie of its own to portray it properly .
In my opinion why not ? Why not a Napoleon series of 4 or 5 movies culminating with Waterloo ? Hollywood spits out Aquaman & all the other Marval garbage

I was so excited about this movie. Then the wrong actor was cast. & the inaccuracies. I will never see it. No way. He is NOT Napoleon

@@adamn2993 It's an actor's job to turn into the person he portrays. As soon as I, watching the movie, think "Joaquin Phoenix", the actor has done a bad job. In this case, a very bad job, as his portrayal was almost diametrically opposed to the many descriptions of Napoleon's behaviour we have. But to be fair, much of this may be due to the script, or to whatever the director wanted to say with this movie.

@@TedNahas - Obviously I do not - what sort of question is that? How do you imagine the job of a historian works? Through time travelling?
As to Napoleon's behaviour patterns, peculiarities and mannerisms: yes, we do indeed have quite a good impression of that. There are literally hundreds of reports by people who met him, mentioning how he acted at that occasion, in French, in German, in Italian, in Dutch, and both from friends and enemies. I do not think there is any other European monarch whose life has been researched so well; I understand we even can tell the name of whatever horse he rode on a certain day (because we still have the notebooks by Caulaincourt about it).
And not a single description fits the main character of this movie.
@@TedNahas You are the weirdo, asking someone in 2024 if he knew Napoleon.
This movie looks great, I am adding it to my collection.
This is one of 5 movies im adding
Austerlitz: superbly sophisticated, supreme planned and pefectly executed by everyone battle plan.
Movie: CHAAAAARGEEEE!!! xD
One would think the Austrians would know the terrain since they are fighting in their homeland. Plus, it's weird to see the Russians speaking Russian but the Austrians speaking English.
Ive been reading about the The French Revolution of 1789 & the Revolutionary & Napoleonic wars for 50 year's or more fact & fiction, it really grabs my imagination for some reason, probably because Ive lived so close to HMS Victory & all the history we have around here for most of my life.
Im a history buff & could send you to sleep with all the facts I know about the battle of Austerlitz.
However, when I went to see this film I just sat back & relaxed & really enjoyed (almost) every second of it. I admit, I flinched a couple of times, but it was great, old whats his face was brilliant as the older Napoleon.
I went to the cinema to be entertained not educated or to be an amateur critic.
I enjoyed Brave Heart as well.
What the hell's this crap! What they didn't like Napoleons brilliance in the actual Austerlitz so they made up some fantasy instead?
This is an abomination of a film
