Napoleon
🎯Missing the target
This movie had everything going for it:
Ridley Scott, stellar director💯
Joaquin Phoenix, superb actor💯
Vanessa Kirby, great actress💯
And the story is already written so it was just a matter of presentation.
Unfortunately that's where they screwed up.
Napoleon, as a whole, feels boring and a "fast" succession of events that fails to make us care about the protagonist in a deep way.😥
It's hard to root for him and easy to find him uninteresting.🙃
Vanessa Kirby did her best and her performance as "Giuseppina" was nice, hands down the best of the movie.👍
Maybe my expectations were too high but I felt that everyone in the theater was bored after a while.
Let's not forget that it was about three hours long.⌛
All and all I wouldn't recommend this movie unless you are a history enthusiast than, maybe, you will enjoy it.🙂
How Would I Fix It ?
Reduce the paste of the battles and explore our protagonist in a deeper way, show us why we should care about him.
