Thanks Marv, these points were so glaringly obvious, I would expect every review will have them in common. And there was a lot more. The sex scenes, if that's what you can even call them, were laughably ludicrous and should have swept up on the cutting room floor.

With a bit of clarity and some coffee this morning, this was a really bad movie. Just one that was beautifully shot.

IMHO Phoenix is one of the best actors of our generation and him being in it is usually enough for me to go see it.
Completely agree, his range from Joker to C 'mon C'mon is a little mind-blowing. The thing is, this movie could have had any decent B list actor like Oscar Isaac could have done as good or better in the role, terrible script and all.

One thing that I was wondering throughout the movie what like Oppenheimer not being shown in Japan will Napoleon not be shown in France. I have a feeling there would be riots if it is.
