One of the greatest military leaders of all time Napoleon BonaparteDescribing the ups and downs of ‘s lifeNapoleon” remained at the center of controversy while the countdown was on for release. While the film, which will meet the audience on November 24, was described as a masterpiece by some critics after its world premiere in Paris, it was evaluated as “extremely inadequate” and “boring” by French critics.

Historian Patrice Guennifey criticized the film as “A Briton’s film… Very anti-French”, while French GQ called the project “extremely clumsy, unnaturally and unintentionally clumsy”. According to Le Figaro, the name of the film, which depicts Napoleon as “an emotional savage with a gun in his hand and ready to shed tears”, should be changed to “Barbie and Ken in the Imperial Era”.
