Unfortunately, that is true. The only facts the movie gets right, are the dates it quotes. I understand artistic leeway, but then at least make it entertaining, but the movie fails at that as well. The movie is incoherent, maddeningly inaccurate historically and, even though I really like Joaquin Phoenix as an actor, an absolutely terrible portrayal of the person Napoleon was. Phoenix portrays him as if he was mocking the character, making him into some autistic wizzkid who is socially incredibly awkward.
From what i heard, the movie is in fact garbage.
Well that sucks. I was looking forward to it.
