This is some "most wanted" supervillain kinda stuff. Also kinda funny how they decided to drop him off on an island under guard if it would have been a lot easier and way cheaper just to kill him.

Every frame of that film looks like a neo classical painting. Thoroughly entertaining, visually spectacular, and hilariously dark. Yes, it wasn't historically accurate and the script lacked a bit, but psychologically it wins all around - these were Scott's intentions I'm sure. Brilliant entertainment. The violence was awesome. 4/5 stars.

British just hold the ground and curse the Prussians for not being in the fight ( in fact they WERE fighting, but to far to be seen) Everyone gives credit to the bruts because Wellington was a marketing genious and spend time and money to sell HIS story

When he realised that he could not escape to America, his choice was surrender to the British--in the hope he could live in the home counties (outside London), or surrender to the Prussians who would have executed him. The British chose to imprison him on Saint Helena, if they had been really spiteful they could of done so on South Georgia (even further south, remoter, more desolate and colder).

​@@shurale123 Napoleon is very controversial even in France: at the same time a dictator spilling blood recklessly for his own ambition, one of the greatest military masterminds that ever lived and, yes, someone who laid the foundations for modern France. His military endeavours were objectively catastrophic (France was smaller and poorer in 1815 than before he seized power), but his attempt to keep the best of both political worlds (royalty and the revolution) was actually quite visionary. That's why the French Republic couldn't completely disown Napoleon. In a nutshell, Napoleon was full of contradictions, lights and shadows. But comparing him to Hitler as Ridley Scott once did is just ludicrous. Either provocative or plain ignorant.

When Napoleon confronted the first legion sent to arrest him, he said this: "Soldats! Je suis votre Empereur! S'il y a quelqu'un qui veut tuer son Emperor, me voici!" In French, these words translate to: "Soldiers! I am your Emperor! If there is any one of you who wishes to kill his Emperor, here I am!" Instead of shooting at him, the men dropped their arms and ran into the embrace of their former comrades-in-arms crying out: "Vive l'Empereur!" meaning "Long live the Emperor!"

To further put into context how influencial he was, the occupation of spain largely weakened the grip that the Vichy had over the latin-american colonies, seeing the opportunity of liberation, Mexico with a lot of other latin american "countries" declared their independence, and fought spain, even in that weakened state, the war was really hard on the independent side, and it took them 11 years to succesfully fight off the Spanish, and take down the Virrey, marking an end on the Virreinato, Napoleon being truly a legend.

That was an issue when he humiliated just about everyone except the British navy

This guy did a much better job at showing what this man was, what he did, and I'd like to highlight the ending montage about the duality of Napoleon. THIS is what the movie should have done, explain (or show) each and every good and bad attribute about Napoleon and then just leave the viewer with one question. What was Napoleon? I truly hope we will get a miniseries about him someday, with the quality that Oversimplified set.

“Run straight at the enemy. Try not to die” The funny thing is, this pretty much sums up Napoleon’s battle tactics from 1812 onwards. He was advised by his Marshall’s to flank the exposed Russian left at Borodino, but opted for a frontal assault. He threw all his reserves at the allied center at Leipzig and again with the Guard at Waterloo. That’s not to say he didn’t still have flashes of brilliance (6 Days Campaign) but Napoleon’s genius had really been worn down by years of war and the constant need to strategize and come up with ever more ingenious maneuvers, as his enemies learnt from his playbook.

I have always found it interesting that it is a "historical debate" as to whether the Wars of the Coalitions were caused by Napoleon, or if he were defending himself against an aggressive Europe. He literally started none of them. Every single one he was, initially, the defender. Yes. He had a habit of pushing _back_ into the countries after their initial attack, and he rarely let go of territory once he took it. However - he did not start the wars. In fact he was quite content to rule over France for a number of years... Before England managed to bribe Prussia and Austria enough. If anyone could be called the aggressor in the Napoleonic Wars? It was England. They spent years throwing the modern equivalent of of tens of billions of pounds at anyone in Europe that would harass or attack France. They funded an entire black market to bypass French borders/laws, and even paid for entire mercenary armies for other nations... as long as they used them against France.

That's true for the first coalition. But not for the other. Napoleon was so strict, harsh and brutal to his defeated nations like Spain or the the German territory that it was only a matter of time until they had to fought back against Napoleon's oppression. Just like WW1 and 2. WW2 became unavoidable because the harsh terms of the treaty of Versailles. Long-term peace and Friendship in Europe was never a possibility with Napoleon's style of ruling.

This man's propaganda was surely a thing. Let me tell you about one moment during what we French call "Le vol de l'Aigle" (the Eagle's flight, the return from Elba). One time, he was caught by royalist forces. One of his generals come to the royalists and say : "The Emperor is coming". The royalist leader, Delassart, responds with "I am determined to do my duty, and will arrest you if you don't surrender". Then, the best big balls tough guy of all times marches towards Delassart's forces, alone, and says to his army to stay back and not to shoot. The royalist officers tell their soldiers to shoot, but no one dares. Then, Bonaparte says : "Soldiers from the 5th, I am your Emperor ! Recognize me !" Then he opens his coat and says "If among you there is one soldier who wants to kill his Emperor, here I am!" Then the royalists soldiers scream "Long live the Emperor", and Napoleon has a much bigger force

@@The_whales Who the fk would want to burn their entire country to win a war? Very few are willing to do that. Would you be willing to burn your centuries old cities that has so much historical values to win a war? Few would, my country's people would defend our 1000 year old temple to the last man. NO ONE gets to claim it other than us. Of course this is pure historical value, we haven't even talked about the scorched earth tatic yet.

Okay let me get this straight. Napoleon was losing allies left and right, he was commanding an army of noobs, he didn't have enough horses for his army. And his enemies' entire plan was still "don't fight Napoleon". What even is this dude?!?

A talented general in a profession historically populated largely by fuck ups, regardless of how much propaganda says otherwise, and before factoring in nepotism baked into aristocracy, operating during a time where warfare relied heavily on morale and discipline, and pioneering a sentiment of "nationalism", a concept of loyalty to a nation, which is much stronger than loyalty to an aristocrat.

I mean, it's largely debatable if Napoleon's existence was beneficial or a prejudice for France's history, since, just looking at the results, France ended up in ruin and left the UK to become the global superpower after all of this... But one thing was not debatable at all, Napoleon's military genius. The guy is at the top of history when it comes to generals' talents, right alongside the likes of Julio Cesar, Alexander the Great or Genghis Khan (probably some Chinese warlords too but pardon me if I don't know their names haha). Some random generals of the time couldn't even compare to him and they knew it, which was probably really humiliating but what you gonna do.
