Napoleon is a grand spectacle that stuns with its meticulously crafted costumes, epic battle sequences, and impressive set designs. However, the film struggles with pacing, often jumping abruptly between key moments in Napoleon’s life, making it feel disted. The muted color palette, while possibly intentional, drains some vibrancy from the visuals, leaving many scenes looking lifeless. Despite these flaws, the sheer scale and attention to historical detail make it a fascinating watch. While it may not fully capture the complexity of Napoleon as a character, it delivers plenty for those seeking large-scale historical warfare and spectacle.
