    If there are any casual watchers who don't know how this battle really went down, here's a brief synopsis so you get a sense of how truly awful this depiction is.
    Napoleon initially occupies the high ground of the Pratzen Heights the day before, but gives it up in order to lure the allied army into a trap. The allied army, seeing the heights abandoned, seize it. Both armies rest for the night. The next morning, there is a heavy fog that obscures much of the French army on the lower plateau, but the allies can clearly see that the French right flank is weak. They plan to move their left wing off the heights to blow through the French right flank, then turn to envelope Napoleons army. This is exactly what Napoleon wanted them to do. Marshal Davout (seen in this scene, but never named. He's the general with the glasses) arrives on the French right to secure it, holding the allied advance. The allies move troops from their centre to reinforce, which weakens their central position. At that moment, the fog lifts and Napoleon orders the main body of his army to attack the allied centre, which is quickly taken. The allied right flank is now threatened with encirclement, and their commander orders a retreat. Napoleon swings his army around to envelope the allies still fighting Davout. The allies only have one line of retreat, so they flee across a frozen pond, which napoleon blasts with cannon. Its not particularly effective, only a few allied soldiers are drowned, but it doesn't matter because Napoleon has complete victory.
    As you can see, this scene is about as far away from the real battle as it is possible to depict. I was half expecting napoleon to say "unleash the dragons" with how much of this scene is fantasy.

Even if the details are wrong, uniforms, wrong flags or something like that, you could try at least to present something that is at its core the experience of the battle for those involved. Napoleon's victory at Austerlitz was a captivating mix of strategic genius, applied military theory, and tactical opportunity. It shaped Napoleon's reputation in Europe and lives on as his masterpiece until this day. This scene presents a mind-numbingly simple plan ("what if we hide and then surprise them") and tries to pass it off as an example of Napoleon's genius. I understand when people make a point about "we had to change some things to make it a more entertaining movie," and that logic totally applies in a lot of cases. But so many times, the real history is just as fascinating and cinematically spectacular as the crackpot fever dream mishmashes of semi-historically adjacent events that filmmakers decide to put onscreen.

    Nothing can be deduced from these scenes of the Battle of Austerlitz. I think Ridley Scott should have used a narrator and a "cartographic view of the battlefield" from the village of Bosenitz in the north to the village of Telnitz in the south to depict the battle. The battle was not decided by any hiding under the tent, but by "Napoleon's idea" to lure the enemy into a predictable attack on the village of Pratzen and the Pratzen mountain (height). The day before the battle, Napoleon was in Pratzen, 01.12.1805. Napoleon in the evening of 01.12. withdrew the army to the Brno Olmouc road. On the Pratzen plain, he placed the reinforced Vandame division. From Pratzen to Telnitz there was only the division of General Le Grand and the Reserve Corps of Light Cavalry under General Beaumont. All the rest of the army was on the Brno-Olmouc road, the 5th Corps (Marshal Lann) defended the road near the village of Bosenitz. Due to the configuration of the battlefield, Napoleon lured the Austrians and Russians into attacking Pratzen and the Pratzen Heights, as well as the villages of Sokolnitz and Telnitz. Moving from north to south at 6 o'clock in the morning, the division of St. Hillarion Napoleon sent from the road towards Sokolnitz to "draw" the enemy to attack towards Sokolnitz. "Old and New Vineyards" remained empty in the center of the battle. General Vandamme's division "flew" into that area. With this, the Austro-Russian lines were broken. With this, Napoleon turned the battle line from north-south to east-west. For the final blow, Napoleon had the entire Guard, Bernadotte's 1st corps, the reserve cuirassier corps, the newly arrived division led by Marshal Davout towards Telnitz and Sokolnitz. The enemy remained disorientated. This ingenious idea of ​​Napoleon could be clearly presented with the help of a map and a few words of the narrator. PS The Battle Of Waterloo Scene is also superficial. I watched the movie a second time and the whole movie is in my opinion: superficial. PS Austerlitz symbolizes the peak of Napoleon as a man, statesman, soldier...Waterloo symbolizes a tired Napoleon, who doesn't even believe in himself. This should have been the main motive of the movie "Napoleon". When a man is sure of what he does, then fortune follows him. Against a tired and insecure man, all the forces turned against him The Battle of Marengo is the beginning of the success of the young Napoleon. From the victory at Marengo, Napoleon begins to be a soldier and a statesman with ambition: "The world is served to me". "Marengo" triggered an unstoppable greatness syndrome in Napoleon. He was basically just a soldier with talent. "Up to a certain point" man can control and direct historical events. There are historical points of "peak amplitude" when events begin to flow in a determined manner that we humans no longer control. This can be seen in events from the French Revolution of 1789 to Waterloo and the Congress of Vienna in 1815. In the Revolutionary events, the hustle and bustle of events, Napoleon simply slipped through the legs of Robespierre and Saint-Gist. The rest is history.

      @@long-distancerecon6364 More about Austerlitz!
      I outlined Napoleon's Plan A in case the battlefield of Austerlitz was covered in the fog that is common in December on the slopes of the Alps. Before the battle, the landscape was shrouded in morning fog for days. The fog was especially needed in the center of the battle line, on the Pratzen plain, where Napoleon placed the Vandame division so that the enemy could not see the division. Apart from Lan's 5th Corps, the rest of the army on the Brno-Olmoutz road was hidden by the forest along the road. (1st Corps, Guards and Cuirassier Corps, Marshal Murat) If the Austro-Russian Army had seen the Vandame Division and vigorously attacked Le Grand Division at Telnitz and Sokolnitz, that division on the right wing of the Grand Armee would have collapsed. But Napoleon foresaw that possibility as well. Divisions of St. Hillarion (which had been moving towards Pratzen since 6 a.m.) and Bessiere's Guards Division which was on the Brno Olmoutz road and was closest to the line from the village of Pratzen to the village of Kobelnitz. In that case, the armies would be placed in two "L"s. The Grand Armee would again have a great advantage if the French army was in the "inner part of the "two letters L" of the front line. Namely, Napoleon could manipulate the movement of units within his line from the "inner side of the front". Also, the French artillery was on that part of the front. The Austro-Russian army would not have had time to move its artillery. Marshal Davout was moving towards the battle and was arriving right on the stretch of line between Pratzen and Sokolnitz at 10 o'clock. And in this case of "plan B" Napoleon would have won the battle only with greater losses. Plan C - If something goes wrong, Napoleon could retreat by road towards Brno.🤣

    I feel like I can directly pinpoint at the heart of this movie’s main let-down: Ridley Scott wants the magic, but he doesn’t want to earn it truthfully, he wants to have it now, without any application of thought and care. Gladiator 2 seems unnecessary, and if the follow-up western he makes (presumably an adaptation of Wraiths of the Broken Land) is made and turns out to be good, then maybe that was the change of scenery he needed to escape the “historical-epic” pigeonhole he so often falls into.

    One thing I can say with absolute certainty, none of the film people has ever been to Slavkov u Brna (Austerlitz). And not one has ever even tried to study up on the facts. Napoleon did not sleep in a tent on the battlefield, he stayed in a very nice house in nearby town of Znojmo. They even have a plaque on the house commemorating his stay.

    I loved, and still do, the 1970 Waterloo movie. And given the technological advances since, had ultra-high expectations of this movie, the potential, what could be achieved, and was SO looking forward to it. I wish I hadn't have bothered.
    A complete and utter let-down. You can, perhaps, forgive and forget some of the historical inaccuracies, but with something like Austerlitz, which was Napoloeon's masterpiece, you'd expect them to get a smidgeon of it right. Sadly, not.
    I mean, even at the Battle of Waterloo... when they announce Blucher and the Prussians have arrived. In this debacle, Wellington looks to his right. The Allies were in the North facing Napoleon to the South. The Prussians came from the East, which when you're looking South is to the left. A small thing, but when you can't even get the basics right, what hope is there for the rest of it. Total garbage.

En plus d'une mise en scène gâchée, Joaquin Foenix est très mauvais dans l'interprétation de l'empereur et Ridley Scott peut-être trop vieux pour une telle entreprise sur grand écran ? Triste à dire, un film qui a sombré dans les abysses comme les ennemis de la FRANCE sur le lac gelé d'Austerlitz, sa plus grande victoire stratégique, écrasante ce 2 décembre 1805. VIVE LA FRANCE 🇲🇫

Or at the very least maintain a more organized withdrawal. Guy was in a rag tag band of minor combat capable ships but was able to hold off a major enemy fleet and a massive fortification but still gave them a severe bloody nose even before the station was confirmed to be weak and about to be destroyed.

    That hole scene is an absolute BS, we know how the battle went, from the previous days to the first hours to the final moment, what they show here is a complete crap.

      @@adamn2993 It's an actor's job to turn into the person he portrays. As soon as I, watching the movie, think "Joaquin Phoenix", the actor has done a bad job. In this case, a very bad job, as his portrayal was almost diametrically opposed to the many descriptions of Napoleon's behaviour we have. But to be fair, much of this may be due to the script, or to whatever the director wanted to say with this movie.

      As to Napoleon's behaviour patterns, peculiarities and mannerisms: yes, we do indeed have quite a good impression of that. There are literally hundreds of reports by people who met him, mentioning how he acted at that occasion, in French, in German, in Italian, in Dutch, and both from friends and enemies. I do not think there is any other European monarch whose life has been researched so well; I understand we even can tell the name of whatever horse he rode on a certain day (because we still have the notebooks by Caulaincourt about it).
      And not a single description fits the main character of this movie.

    I agree with a lot of the comments here about language unfortunately, American movie audiences hate subtitles. Personally, I love the authenticity, and offhand I can only think of two movies where it’s been Tora Tora Tora and Ron Howards, the Alamo, which was a mediocre movie but The scenes with Santa Ana were done in Spanish and it’s the bright spot of the movie. The actor who played Santa Anna did a great job very intense.
