Napoleon Movie Review by Sucharita Tyagi Once he meets Josephine though, both Napoleon the man and the movie change, for a tone that can only be described as humorous. The epic war film takes on some Big Lebowski hues, as Napoleon, convinced of his righteousness and peaceloving ways, delivers some epic oneliners and zingers, including calling the dinner on his plate a lamb chop of destiny. Thankfully unlike Scott’s last film House Of Gucci, no actor in the House of Bonaparte has a fake French accent – Joaquin Phoenix sounds American, Vanessa Kirby British, and they just make it work, allowing us to focus on the many many things happening in the screenplay rather than how r and ts are being enunciated. The film’s screenplay moves on from being largely episodic thus far once it begins to become clear that Napoleon and Josephine's toxic romantic relationship and how that shaped Europe as we now know it, might be what the filmmaker is most interested in exploring. In a fit of rage, Napoleon makes Josephine apologize for taking a lover in his absence, making her teradully declare that Napoleon alone is the most important man in the world. Almost immediately after they make up, seemingly only a few moments later Josephine, now not fearful at all, turns the tables on him, as he breaks down and repeats after HER that he is only a brute and nothing without her in his life. With the new layer of acidity in their relationship, Napoleon turns even more insolent, falling asleep in political meetings, being chided for his bad manners, literally running away from policy makers, just about falling short of pulling faces and going phhhbbbttt at army generals.
How much of this is historically accurate, Ridley Scott clearly doesn’t care. The man is shooting Gladiator 2 with Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington and Pedro Pascal right now.
