There is no way that this is less than Spectacular.

Looks really good. I have to say that I’m a bit fuzzy on the transition from the French Revolution and ending up with an Emperor in Napoleon. This will help fill that gap.

Looks like a great one, but based upon past films the large battlefield scenes will certainly be CGI and the "drop that bass" audio experience isn't terribly important to me.

It will probably look better on my big screen at home. The only time I go to the theater anymore is for classic films usually stuff from Fathom / TCM. Those still look amazing on the big screen.

Last "newish" film I saw in the theater was Dunkirk and while I liked the film everything looked a little cartoonish when it came to large panoramic views of planes and ships. It actually looked more realistic when I later streamed the film at home.

I will watch it. Not really expecting a for-real biography, so I won't be disappointed when the history is wrong.

I like Ridely Scott's work, so this should be well done. Looking forward to it

Looks great. All Scott movies are visually stunning. I will be most interested if the movie is historically accurate however. If not, will not bother as "roughly sorta based on a true story" stuff I don't care about.

I'm glad it's going to show in theaters. I'm getting tired of these subscription services with their walled gardens.

I'm gonna need a actual movie review myself. This site I like and will check with it for those "based on a true story" movies:
