Napoleon was from the island of Corsica and had a Corsican accent that was more Italian sounding. He was bullied in school for not sounding French.
His name was technically Napoleone Buonaparte, just to get a sense of the degree to which he was more Italian (Corsican) then French.
All in all I think Napoleon is a figure that many English (and Americans) fail to fully grasp beyond the idea that he was short and had a god complex.
@@miniman2132 i thought his height was average for the time, no?
@@shelly_lee Yes, certainly for Southern European men it was. The English (who on average were slightly taller) made fun of him for it but that just shows you how desperate they were for ANY kind of insult. He was in fact greatly admired by the British rank and file.
@@shelly_lee absolutely, I didn’t say people were right for thinking he’s short and has a god complex, but that’s what everyone believes.
i wish they had showed a scene where he was one of the five men who tried too resurrect the roman empire
he is one of the five who have fallen the bible talk about in revelations we don't see that in movie
1 Justinian's Imperial Restoration
2 Otto I, "The Great Emperor"
3 Charles V, On Whose Empire the Sun Never Set
4 Charlemagne, Holy Roman Emperor
'5. Napoleon, Rival of Charlemagne and Alexander
One of history's most famous figures, Napoleon Bonaparte, was to lead the fifth prophesied attempt to resurrect the Roman Empire with the endorsement of the Roman church. As Will Durant observed, Napoleon "dreamt of rivaling Charlemagne and uniting Western Europe…then of following Constantine…to the capture of Constantinople…and proposed to rival Alexander by conquering India" (The Story of Civilization, Vol. 11: The Age of Napoleon, 1975, pp. 242-243). At the height of his power he ruled 70 million subjects across the European continent.
Born on the Mediterranean island of Corsica, Napoleon began to make a name for himself in the aftermath of the French Revolution. Having received a military education in France, he quickly proved himself a military genius in campaign after campaign.
But military power wasn't enough to satisfy his ambitions. In 1799 Napoleon maneuvered himself into France's top political position. In 1804 he crowned himself emperor of France, and later that year was crowned Emperor Napoleon I by Pope Pius II at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Before long his military conquests led him to rule Europe from the Elbe River on the east side of Germany to the Atlantic Ocean, as well as over Spanish and French territories in the New World-the greater part of the Americas.
Looking to Rome and Charlemagne for inspiration, Napoleon determined to unify Europe under his reign. However, his great ambitions proved his undoing. Plans to invade Britain fell apart after his navy was defeated by Admiral Lord Nelson at Trafalgar in 1805. In 1812 his invasion of Russia proved disastrous, with the loss of more than half a million men. Forced to abdicate his throne, he was sent into exile in 1814.
With this, the fifth revival of the Roman Empire drew to a close. But this was not the end of imperialist attempts to unify Europe.
One is found in Revelation 13:3 and Revelation 13:12, where it is stated that this beast has a "deadly wound" that is healed. Prophetically, what does this mean?
After decades of decline, the Roman Empire indeed received a "deadly wound" in A.D. 476 when Rome's Emperor Romulus Augustulus was deposed by Germanic tribes led by Odoacer. But that was not the end of the Roman Empire. As we will see, that "wound" was indeed healed, and the empire would rise again-and again and again through history.
The description of this beast in Revelation 17 is linked with a powerful and influential entity called a "great harlot" (Revelation 17:1). This woman represents a great false church that persecutes the people of God and sits on "seven hills" (Revelation 17:9, NIV). Rome, of course, is famously known as the "City of Seven Hills."
As stated earlier, hills or mountains can be symbolic of governments or kingdoms, as is the case here.
Revelation 17:10 speaks of seven kings-leaders of governments or kingdoms-who will "continue a short time." Of those seven kings, it says that "five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come." That wording indicates that they rule in succession, one after another. The final seventh king is called "the beast" in Revelation 13:4. He will be allied with 10 other leaders or rulers who will "receive authority for one hour [symbolic of a short time] as kings with the beast" and "give their power and authority to the beast" (Revelation 17:12-13).
Revelation 17:14 makes it clear that the seventh king, the "beast," will be in power until Jesus Christ returns to destroy him: "These [the 10 allied rulers or leaders] will make war with the Lamb [Jesus Christ], and the Lamb will overcome them…" (Revelation 17:14).
A study of history shows the fulfillment of these remarkable prophecies in the form of successive new leaders of revivals of the Roman Empire after its "deadly wound" of A.D. 476, which was healed. These revivals were in cooperation with the Roman Catholic Church. Let's see how this was fulfilled in recorded history and what lies ahead yet to be fulfilled.
p.s. the seven kings mention in Revelation 17th chapter which speak about them they are of the Nebuchanezzar's Babylon
Daniel 7:1-8
1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters.
2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.

another biblically and history lesson for another day
The only thing I know about Napoleon is that he wasn't that short and I will never forget it because in school I told my history teacher I thought he was short and she was pissed.
English propaganda about his height.
I wonder if Bill and Ted will show up for the sequel
😂😂😂
Ziggy Piggy.
@@anubusxtotally radical
Bill and Ted IS the sequel
With So-crates???
Something I think Corey would appreciate, the executioner, the one who killed Louis XVI, is Phil Cornwell, the voice actor that plays as Murdoc for Gorillaz
the executioner from way back then is a voice actor today? i'm impressed
Feelz good,
🤣@@360.Tapestry
Did they glance over how the Haitians defeated Napolean's forces?
Thank you for asking that particular question?😊
Napoleon was fighting the greatest forces in Europe at the time, you really think he sent his entire military to Haiti 😂😂
@@Dommy521in Vin Deisel voice: it doesn't matter if you send in a single platoon or your entire naval force, losing's losing 😎
@@aaronearnedanironurnn I like the way you think lol
Napoleon said his biggest mistake was not making an alliance with Louverture.
I felt the same way about the music in the trailer. I was so confused. I miss the times where movie trailers played the song that would define the film like Back to the Future and Chariots of Fire.
Or could have played amore plastique
I loved it.
@@aesop4024 the song in the trailer or the movie??
@@filmfangirls9163 Trailer
Joaquin Phoenix playing himself with a Napolean hat.
What’s interesting is that the opening battles of world war 1 in Belgium were absolutely brutal because soilders just walked into gunfire like the old days, but with machine guns it was total carnage
The worst experience I ever had in a movie theatre was when I saw War Horse on opening day. The movie wasn't what I expected it to be at all, and I hated it. The reason it was so miserable was because everyone around me was LOVING it and thought it was cinema perfection. An older lady behind me started crying loudly when the horse's girlfriend died.
I hope that crowd shows up for Napoleon.
I’m guessing you must’ve hated Last Jedi too…?
@@shinndig1293 Lol I actually liked Last Jedi on first viewing. With War Horse, I thought I was going into an action adventure war movie about a boy and his horse, not the life story of the horse. 😂
Napoleon's actual accent would've been tough because he was Corsican

@@YOURFAVORITEDOOMGUY Any prophecy can come true if you just make it vague enough, and people are willing to stretch the definition of "true."
Exactly. You mean some dude was gonna do some evil shit? The hell you say.
Napoleon didn't have an English accent. He didn't speak English. The accent in the film doesn't matter one damned but, because they aren't actually speaking English. The English voice is just there for the English audience. You are supposed to imagine that they aren't actually speaking like that.
@@AirLancer that is the director fault
if i was directing the movie
i would show him trying too ressurect rome
speaking with pope pipus 2
trying rival charlamgne and Alexander by trying too conqueor india
so many historical points that wasn't because they want too come up with their version
instead of following the historical facts
truth is the truth no matter how far you stretch it
They butchard this man. First of all, you cannot tell the life of Napoleon in a single film. Second of all, you cannot quietly give commands on a noisy batglefield, and third of all, Napoleon was never cucked like that, nor boring like that. He's portrayed a bafoon, and he was a military genius. He did some horrible things, and some great things. As one reviewer said, this is not a Napoleon biopic, this is a hit piece. Watch "Waterloo" (1970) instead.
Napoleon wasn't French. He was Corsican.
Corsica is part of France and the people who reside in Corsica are considered French.. google search
Mads mikkelson ( Lechefe from Casino Royale) would’ve been a lot better as Napoleon than Joaquin. Would’ve been better if they used some de-aging for the younger periods.
That’s some god damn good casting there, though I think both he and Phoenix are too old to play Napoleon in his pomp.
Napoleon wasn't small in reality, he was above average height. That was just propaganda.
I’ll wait until the extended cut comes out because Ridley Scott tends not to put his personal cut in theaters like Legend, Blade Runner, and Kingdom Of Heaven, and his preferred cut of those end up being better than the theatrical cuts
Then he should consider making movies for streaming services
You must not have seen the last duel. No other cut yet no one talks about it smh
The extended cut has 93 more minutes at around 4 hours. It'll be on Apple TV
Yeah, it could fill in the gaps for all those disjointed scenes that barely connected at all.
not really
i felt robbed of substance , it felt empty
The one thing I took away from watching Napoleon is that Ridley Scott really hates horses.
The Best version of Napoleon is the one from Night at the Museum ;)
Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure
Agreed I grew up with night at the museum
I heard Waterloo was really good. I know I saw a really badass scene where he just Stares down an entire firing squad and convinced them to join his side.

Christoph Waltz would’ve been a better casting imo
Did Joaquin say "Have I missed the battle?" Hehe
Thank you, Korey, for reviewing this one.
❤❤❤❤
is there much difference between being a great tactician/strategist and just having the odds/circumstances in your favor and being competent enough to take advantage of them
60 times?
A good strategist is able to engineer the conditions they can take advantage of.
Napoleon did not purely react. He created the conditions
He didn't just manipulate the odds or engineer the circumstances of a battle in his favor, he totally revolutionised what it meant to wage war.
Entirely.
The _levée en masse_ is one of the first instances of what would later become known as the concept of Total War, which itself gave birth to the 'modern warfare' we'd see going into the 20th century.
There is a huge misconception about the Which a lot of these . A lot of historians who have Made videos correcting this. In reality if battles were fought like this nobody would survive. And people just work that stupid back then. But of course they know that in the movies if they really made it the way the battles were fought back then we would be bored out of our mind. So They Do the battles to where people are just running towards each other or running into cannons or gunfire or swords just to add more spectacle.
We need the same film crew that did Death of Stalin for this Comedy epic
that movie isn’t talked about enough with how funny it is
If people don’t show up for this one, Ridley Scott is gonna blame millennials again.
He’ll be right killer of flower moon bombed hard, and ppl say that’s one of the best films of the year
@@realezabrasilenaroachxbela2559 Millennials showed up for Oppenheimer 🤷🏻♀️ I think that says more about the quality of movies he’s making than the generation he wants to blame.
no headline about it flopping?
So this is the story of Napoleon Dynamite's great great great grand father. lol
This movie stunk. I've seen some bad movies recently, but this was just a complete failure. It's the first time I have ever walked out of a movie and considered asking for my money back.....I didn't because it was late and Thanksgiving night, but I do intend to send an email to Ridley Scott's PR contact asking for a reimbursement, just to send a message...
On the subject of the Napoleonic Wars I feel obliged to plug 'Sharpe' starring Sean Bean (before he blew up). For me growing up it was THE series to watch, Wednesday evenings watching Sean Bean defeat another French unit.
Sharpe was the man! The only person awesome enough to survive being played by Sean Bean! Really though, for a show with a low budget, it’s really great and apparently the book is even better!
Vanessa Kirby was a much better choice than Jodie Comer would have been.
This sounds like a mix between a historical version that movie Dark Water about the dudes wife who “cucks” him with some cool battle scenes in between… but people seem to really like it, so I’m excited to see it
The guy that played Napoleon in the bill and ted movie was more convincing....
It's like The Beastie Boys and Star Trek, Nirvana and Batman trailers 😂.. just nonsense
Martin would say he didn’t like gladiator lol.
I don't know how... one of my favorites.
It's a good movie, but a bit overhyped
He's right though. That movie was a hype job.
@@Tvirus12how so?
I feel like between this, House of Gucci and Alien Covenant, as well as him blaming Millennials for why The Last Duel bombed; Ridley Scott really should just retire from directing, he’s lost his touch.
Napolaen from The Count of Monte Cristo was perfect
I really liked the film, I just saw it in imax. I thought there were a couple lines that were goofy: “you guys think you’re so great because you have boats!” I also didn’t care for some of the stilted dialogue between Napoleon and Josephine: the part where they made each other say “you are nothing without me, say it.” I thought Joaquin did a good job, but then again, it’s Joaquin Phoenix and I’m positive that he improvised some weird mannerisms for Napoleon. Other than that, I thought it was solid and I loved feeling the vibrations from the gunshots and cannonballs on the screen from the imax.
Corey I really don’t get how you don’t think a song about “generals gathered in their masses” isn’t appropriate for a movie about Napoleon and the Napoleonic wars 😂
This historic epic will bomb harder than Alexander.
3:34 can Hollywood put an end to cheesy remixes of Dad Rock songs for movie trailers please.
Why didn't they get Danny Devito for the role of Napoleon? If anyone out there has seen Get Shorty, you get it.
Napoleon dynamite and Napoleon crossover movie.
Am I the only one I thought this was ok😅?
Cause the acting, visual effects (w/the violence), and technical aspects + costumes were great….just thought the story itself was so-so.
To sum up my experience of this movie: talk battle, beheading, politics, bad romance, politics, romance, politics, bad romance, battle, bad romance, bad romance, bad romance, politics all scenes are short disjointed, poorly edited. The characters were poorly written, Napoleon is portrayed as an autistic weirdo to such a degree that he wouldn't have been able to be respected enough to keep in line the nobles, people or even his own army in line. Napoleon was really the early totalitarian militairy dictator we see today. This movie sucked in the cinema, it was trash and I am most certainly not going to watch the 4 hour version. If someone suggest to watch this movie again I will tell them to shoot me before pushing the play button.
That song is War Pigs by Black Sabbath, my brothers and that's what Napoleon was!
If you want a better Napoleon movie, go watch Oversimplified Napoleonic Wars.
Pedro for president and that dance scene at the end was epic
ok ok
Yes. I hope the film focuses on his early days in Utah
Accents dont matter. Most people outside US will see the movie subtitled or dubbed.
6:40 see I didn’t even think the battle scenes were filmed well at all.
One shot when the retreating banner men was running away from the cannons was good. Outside of that they were pretty bad
Did they show Him getting His ass kicked in Haiti lol lol
Sadly no. They don’t mention the situation in Haiti.
Sadly no. They don’t mention the situation in Haiti.
5:32 that part was cold.. bruh was like don’t touch me
I’m 5 ‘7, never felt short as an adult, still date girls taller and shorter than me, but when I found out Napoleon was 5 ‘8, it stung a little 🤣
It's not a biopic on Napoleon. It's a biopic on The Napoleon Complex.
It will be hilarious when Ridley Scott blaming Millennials again for his movie bombing like the last duel. He probably meant Gen Z but he's an old fart by this point

The lack of french accent is.......an "interesting " choice 😂😂
***I heard the movie to be released on apple tv is 4 hours.
and having Joaquin doing what Kenneth Branagh did in his Poirot movies..??
i think he learned from House of Gucci to NOT have his American actors doing any more poor attempts at foreign accents.
🤣🤣
You wouldn't have the "French" accent when actually speaking French.
I have many questions for Ridley Scott.
Korey: Matinee
Does anyone speak any French in this movie?
EVERY TIME KOREY SNIFFS HIS FINGER TAKE A DRINK...
What the hell do korey smell on that one finger all the time? 😂😂I've been asking myself this for years 😂😂
I’ve been wondering that for awhile too!😂😂
Korey single now. You do the math. 😩🫣🤢
@@nichescenes I miss Korey and Mia
I thought he's getting back with her and break is ending something about him visiting her...what happen...they seemed good to gether. @@keanucooper2103
These reviews where only 1 person has seen the movie ain’t it
I was gonna skip this movie. Until I heard Ridley Scott was directing it
Ill say its a good remake of Desiree with Marlon Brando, which has all the same attributes as this film.
I actually like House of Gucci it was fun and I think it was a bit self aware, I passed on this movie after seeing the first 2 seconds of the trailer.
I really enjoyed this movie, but it was too long. The could've taken out a lot about Josefine honestly. Also, Joaquin's modern American accent took me completely out of the illusion a lot of the time.
I’m just laughing thinking about the beef between Ridley Scott and Napoleon. Ridley seems mad and offended 🤣🤣 movie was funny as hell
The guy who made the trailer deserves a raise.
This was a low low some ole bullshit imo
I love you guys. That’s all.
What happened to the children we see with Josephine. They are only in the movie for a little bit.
Atrocious movie. Didn't see any general's either. Like 3 characters in the entire movie,😢
@@Paulmatthew22 I will agree that his Alien prequel movies suck. I hate Prometheus and Alien Covenant. I did like this movie. No historical movie is historically accurate p. You want accuracy? Watch a documentary. This movie had great performances from Joaquin and Vanessa Kirby. The other characters were great too. This movie did a great job showing how people were in love with the Guillotine. My only problem is that the movie was very long. I could feel the length. The movie had real location shots. No green screen. It had practical effects. It was more enjoyable than the super movies we had recently.
@@biguy617 I'm a huge history buff brother. I'll leave it there ~🤮

As a person that loves history, I am going to watch this. The setting and costumes look amazing, It may give me some insight into the legendary emperor himself or just maybe a fun action film for me, that you Korey and your crew for reviewing this.
Phoenix is too old.
@@dantheman4838 Phoenix needs to take it easy
It is not an action movie. Mostly love drama
@@luchamiomaridekakio6429 oh ok but i know i will be hyped for the battle scenes
I thought the same thing about the accent when i saw the trailers
“Beau-naparte Is Afraid”
the didn't show waterloo
Sounds like this movie's red pill.
When I think of Napoleon, the M.C Hammer cartoon from the early 90s , Rapoleon the villain 😂
joaquin pheonix is so so wrong for this role.. and ridley scott is the wrong director for this movie.. the fact that these battle scenes still follow this incredibly dumb and corny thing they do where everyone just runs and slams into eachother is also so dumb... history legends has a great video breaking down why this movie was so bad in terms of its battle scenes and about napoleon too
Napoleon the Simp
This movie looks amazing!
Make this Trio permanent,Billy is a great acceptance to the 4th but NO ONE ELESE 👍🏼
Why? Julian doesn't really say anything substantial. He lacks experience and insight.
I have a book called , Loveletters an Anthology of Passion. It has some of Napoleon's letters to Josephine. They are full of his undying love for her. Even after he gives her up he sends her letters. She had him lost and turned out.
reminds me of those snl skits about the man being away at war writing love letters and receiving increasingly alarming details from his wife
i wish they had showed a scene where he was one of the five men who tried too resurrect the roman empire
he is one of the five who have fallen the bible talk about in revelations we don't see that in movie
1 Justinian's Imperial Restoration
2 Otto I, "The Great Emperor"
3 Charles V, On Whose Empire the Sun Never Set
4 Charlemagne, Holy Roman Emperor
'5. Napoleon, Rival of Charlemagne and Alexander
One of history's most famous figures, Napoleon Bonaparte, was to lead the fifth prophesied attempt to resurrect the Roman Empire with the endorsement of the Roman church. As Will Durant observed, Napoleon "dreamt of rivaling Charlemagne and uniting Western Europe…then of following Constantine…to the capture of Constantinople…and proposed to rival Alexander by conquering India" (The Story of Civilization, Vol. 11: The Age of Napoleon, 1975, pp. 242-243). At the height of his power he ruled 70 million subjects across the European continent.
Born on the Mediterranean island of Corsica, Napoleon began to make a name for himself in the aftermath of the French Revolution. Having received a military education in France, he quickly proved himself a military genius in campaign after campaign.
But military power wasn't enough to satisfy his ambitions. In 1799 Napoleon maneuvered himself into France's top political position. In 1804 he crowned himself emperor of France, and later that year was crowned Emperor Napoleon I by Pope Pius II at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris. Before long his military conquests led him to rule Europe from the Elbe River on the east side of Germany to the Atlantic Ocean, as well as over Spanish and French territories in the New World-the greater part of the Americas.
Looking to Rome and Charlemagne for inspiration, Napoleon determined to unify Europe under his reign. However, his great ambitions proved his undoing. Plans to invade Britain fell apart after his navy was defeated by Admiral Lord Nelson at Trafalgar in 1805. In 1812 his invasion of Russia proved disastrous, with the loss of more than half a million men. Forced to abdicate his throne, he was sent into exile in 1814.
With this, the fifth revival of the Roman Empire drew to a close. But this was not the end of imperialist attempts to unify Europe.
One is found in Revelation 13:3 and Revelation 13:12, where it is stated that this beast has a "deadly wound" that is healed. Prophetically, what does this mean?
After decades of decline, the Roman Empire indeed received a "deadly wound" in A.D. 476 when Rome's Emperor Romulus Augustulus was deposed by Germanic tribes led by Odoacer. But that was not the end of the Roman Empire. As we will see, that "wound" was indeed healed, and the empire would rise again-and again and again through history.
The description of this beast in Revelation 17 is linked with a powerful and influential entity called a "great harlot" (Revelation 17:1). This woman represents a great false church that persecutes the people of God and sits on "seven hills" (Revelation 17:9, NIV). Rome, of course, is famously known as the "City of Seven Hills."
As stated earlier, hills or mountains can be symbolic of governments or kingdoms, as is the case here.
Revelation 17:10 speaks of seven kings-leaders of governments or kingdoms-who will "continue a short time." Of those seven kings, it says that "five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come." That wording indicates that they rule in succession, one after another. The final seventh king is called "the beast" in Revelation 13:4. He will be allied with 10 other leaders or rulers who will "receive authority for one hour [symbolic of a short time] as kings with the beast" and "give their power and authority to the beast" (Revelation 17:12-13).
Revelation 17:14 makes it clear that the seventh king, the "beast," will be in power until Jesus Christ returns to destroy him: "These [the 10 allied rulers or leaders] will make war with the Lamb [Jesus Christ], and the Lamb will overcome them…" (Revelation 17:14).
A study of history shows the fulfillment of these remarkable prophecies in the form of successive new leaders of revivals of the Roman Empire after its "deadly wound" of A.D. 476, which was healed. These revivals were in cooperation with the Roman Catholic Church. Let's see how this was fulfilled in recorded history and what lies ahead yet to be fulfilled.
p.s. the seven kings mention in Revelation 17th chapter which speak about them they are of the Nebuchanezzar's Babylon
Daniel 7:1-8
1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream, and told the sum of the matters.
2 Daniel spake and said, I saw in my vision by night, and, behold, the four winds of the heaven strove upon the great sea.
3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.
4 The first was like a lion, and had eagle's wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made stand upon the feet as a man, and a man's heart was given to it.
5 And behold another beast, a second, like to a bear, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh.
6 After this I beheld, and lo another, like a leopard, which had upon the back of it four wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it.
7 After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns.
8 I considered the horns, and, behold, there came up among them another little horn, before whom there were three of the first horns plucked up by the roots: and, behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of man, and a mouth speaking great things.
Seven Heads that ruled many nations and kindoms
Babylon 1 head Nebuchanezzar that head of gold
Medo-persia 2 heads Russia and Iran arms and chest
Greece 4 four heads Cassander Lysymicus Seleude Potelmy waist of body
Rome the pope legs and feet
Rome is the last one that has Fallen and Rise 9 times 10th Resurrection is under the Banner of the European Common Market
Rome is ruling through false religions and false doctrines that go against the bible and jesus
another biblically and history lesson for another day
It’s hard to wrap my mind around how bad this movie was
Really Double Toasted Why Do You Think The Napoleon Movie Was Comedy I Do Not Really Think It Was A Comedy Even If I Haven't Seen The Movie?
Great Content
This movie was goofy as hell hahaha
Cool 😎 review bro
You gave a more nuanced discussion than when you blamed Cassie for her own abuse
I love this movie
Napoleon was short king
Vanessa Kirby is a smokeshow
Thanks Korey for the warning about the graphic death of the horse. They can kill all the humans they want, but not animals. That’s why I skipped Guardians of the Galaxy 3, I just can’t. And my mother had horses growing up on the family farm, so she’d pitch a freaking massive fit, like that scene would ruin her whole life! 💔
Gotta love the Black Sabbath music they put on the trailer. (Is it black Sabbath or am i wrong?)
Adam sandler would be funny as napoleon
Russia till this day survived multiple invasions, REAL REVOLUTION, collapse of empire. Napoleon's and Hitler's armies - largest in Europe back then. Now zelensky's nazi regime fallen... AND STILL RUSSIA is UNDISPTUTEDLY STRONG. The movie is good and it shows deeper truth.
The movie isn’t very good but the battle scenes are fantastic.
Love it lol 😆
I want to watch this movie but Phoenix is way too old to play Napoleon. It would be like casting Tom Cruise to play Alexander The Great.
No he looks like napoleon
Too good to try an accent.
And, I am a fan.
But that shit was wack.
He also can't wear leather.
Hilarious
Sometimes I think they need to put together YT Ghetto...
