NAPOLEON - Official Trailer (HD) 

"If there is ever a movie made on my life in the far future, Joaquin Phoenix shall play my role" - Napoleon Bonaparte

"The battlefield is a scene of constant chaos. The winner will be the one who controls that chaos, both his own and the enemies" - Napoleon

The bit where Napoleon says to the British Ambassador, ‘ you think you’re so great because you have boats!’ Made me laugh out loud 😂

Fun fact: Napoleon is the most portrayed historical character on film. There have been 194 movies about him!

It’s kind of nice to have the “historical” epic movie back. I’ve missed these kind of films.

"I'm the first to admit it when I make a mistake... I simply never do." *Absolute chills*

Things that should have been changed about this movie imo: 1. More Battle, Less Josephine. The trailer attracts us with epic scenes of battle and glory that we’d associate with Napoleon, exciting calvary charges, firing on the ice, but the main plot really revolves around his relationship with his first wife, and her impact on his life. 2. Better portray his rise to power. The coup scene was hilarious and great, but the transition to Napoleon being a military leader to an arrogant leader is too swift. I wanna see him earn it, I wanna see him getting dirty and aiming the cannons himself, and gaining the respect of his men, and they did deliver with the fort scene, but after that we rarely see any honorable actions by Napoleon. 3. Expand more on his downfall. Napoleon comes back from his first exile, and we immediately cut to Waterloo. It’s a great battle scene, but part of what makes his downfall so great is the betrayal and politically scheming going on by the monarchs around. His own brother betrayed him after being appointed by Napoleon as King of Sweden, if I recall, maybe more drama in that department would have been good. 4. Show more of Napoleon winning. I, at least, came to see Napoleon bring Europe to its knees, and while we do have some of that, there’s just not enough. There’s just way too much of Napoleon and his wife, let me see him divide and conquer, destroy his enemies in more than just montages. I mean come on, his tactics and strategies were the _basis_ of most militaries after him. 5. We needed a better portrayal of his death. Show us the sick, disheveled, and depressed Napoleon that was in his last exile, not him with a grey beard and uniform, suddenly slumping over. Especially because they tell us his true last words after, despite just depicting them completely differently. Overall, they focused a little too much on Napoleon’s personal life and drama, and less on the legend that _is_ Napoleon. Of course, I’m looking at him through romanticized, unrealistic glasses, but that doesn’t matter when I, and I believe most other people watching, came to see that. It’s fun to pick this movie apart, but you have to take into account how much history, and how many events a buffed up story of Napoleon would have. The runtime would be around 4 hours. They did a good job, Joaquin Phoenix is great as Napoleon, the cinematography is beautiful, but story and plot wise, if definitely could have been improved. That’s my take, at least.

This trailer is such a banger compared to end result..

"I used to think that my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it’s a comedy." - Napoleon

Once again, remember that Ridley Scott is 85 years old and is still directing epics.

Two emperors the king of war and the king of epics clashed. One met his Waterloo and the other another Oscar. RS can do no wrong! Fantastic movie.

Phoenix has always smashed it but now in his later years he's really putting on pure performances

I've been thirsting for this movie without even knowing it. I wish for more massive scale historical epics

“There’s nothing we can do”

>Make a movie about Napoleon >Concentrate on his lover instead great idea, I can't wait for a movie called Hitler but instead of concentrating on ww2 or his rise to power and downfall it would concentrate on his relationship with Eva Braun, and only at the end would there be a 10-minute fight with the Soviets or a movie called Lenin but instead of being about Russian Revolution it would only consist of his story with Nadezhda Krupskaya

Despite the criticism that the movie has received, and it being for the most part valid, I think the movie was great. I left the cinema with my breath still heavy from the scene of The Battle of Austerlitz and my heart still in my throat from the scene of The Battle of Waterloo. While it might have not been as historically accurate and battle-oriented as this trailer suggested and we expected, it did Napoleon’s legacy justice with that exact feeling of shortness of breath and your heart in your throat. The movie was exceptionally made. Wonderfully cast, fantastically acted by Joaquin, phenomenally scored with tracks perfectly fitting. The cinematography of the film kept me in awe with each new set introduced and the realism of each and every single gory detail never failed to make gasp at least a little. The film might have not told Napoleon’s story perfectly accurate, but it did get the greatness of his legacy across. And I think, that for the people that do not have as much historical knowledge to be able to point each inaccuracy out and ruin it for them, this movie showcased the great impact of Napoleon enough. A great movie for a great leader.

if I don’t hear him saying “There’s nothing we can do.” in the movie i’m gonna cry

Ridley bringing back historical epics!!!! Please let this be the full 4 hour director cut. You can’t contain Napoleon in just 2 hours

The real Napoleon slumped in the saddle and never had an elegant seat. He also never fell off.

"Death is inutile if you are remembered in the hearts of men." -Napoleon Bonaparte

"I used to think my life was a tragedy. But now I realize... it's a victory." - Napoleon Bonaparte

As a historian, who had to study Napoleon's life inside and out. I cannot wait for this movie .

Thank u guys

I've heard lots of criticism about this film, but I just watched it yesterday and I'm in awe how fantastic it is. The visuals, the characters, the love story, everything was incredible. You can hate or love him, but this man is one of the most important person in human history and is a legend forever.

Such poetic that Joaquin Phoenix plays again the role of an Emperor 23 years later the first time Ridley Scott directed him.

“Finally, a movie I’m looking forward to watching”. - Napoleon Bonaparte

One of Napoleon's best films, a very beautiful film.

The resounding drums, triumphant brass, and sweeping strings of epic music inject movie trailers with a profoundly thrilling ambience. This style of bold, operatic composition brings an unmatched sense of grandeur. The full symphonic sound washes over you, instant goosebumps as that exhilarating melody unfurls. No words are needed to feel the mood - whether tensions simmering into war cries or heroes rising against the odds to turn the tide. The music amplifies the high stakes hinted onscreen into palpable excitement. These epic anthems punctuate trailers with exclamation points, ensuring the adventure ahead leaves an indelible impression whether it features clashing armies or character-driven drama. The marriage of epic music's unrelenting crescendo and carefully edited visuals forms a siren song, drawing us right into imagined new worlds brimming with action, emotion and spectacle. Who can resist such powerful musical storytelling, the ultimate appetizer promising grand purpose behind these tales? We have those ingenious sound composers to thank for trailers that spark such strong senses of destiny through their triumphant symphonic suites alone - our hearts quicken and imaginations ignite.

“Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.” - Napoleon Bonaparte

Oppenheimer, Killers of Flower Moon, and Napoleon all in 1 year. Good movies ARE BACK 👏🏻

My mate's in this! :D 0:22s Left side, yelling. He was also a caterer for the cast/crew in Gladiator! In 2050 he'll have a lead role I expect. :D

Гледах целият филм и беше изключително готин и екстремен.Главният герой който беше Наполеон изиграва много добре ролята си като крал и генерал на битките случващи се главно във филма.🙂🙂

"Courage isn't having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don't have strength." - Napoleon Bonaparte

"Josefine, l m ariving. Dont take a bath"- Napoleon

Hey Sony Entertainment! You did Great Job!!

"Death is nothing, but to live defeated and inglorious is to die daily" -Napoleon Bonaparte

"I used to think my life was a tragedy, but now I realize, it's an historical epic/period piece." - Napoleon Bonaparte

Napoleon = Joker Duke of Wellington = Dr. Claw

Super film !!!!… now reading and watching about napoleon ..

My only concern is, how the hell do you capture a career like Napoleon's in one movie? Over a period of 25 years, he literally led one of the most interesting lives in history, during one of the most interesting times in history. Countless movies and miniseries have focussed on just a few aspects of his life, and the French Revolution that precipitated his rise to power. More books have been written about him than about anyone else, ever.

There are millions of amazing historical events and stories that would be awesome to see portrayed in the movies. It’s shame only a few directors have the ability to make such films and are willing. Id be watching movies all the time if studios decided to fund these kinds of films rather than another superhero movie or a non original reboot. Historical epics are hard to beat!

"JF saying smthing" Gives me chills!

Napoleon was in his 20’s this dude looks like he’s in his 50’s. Come on man!

To be honest, Napoleon's life was so rich in events, wars and intrigues that we need like 10 season TV show instead of 2-3 hour movie.

Ridley Scott and Joaquin Phoenix. Another Oscar incoming. Can't wait for this masterpiece. We need more movies like these.

It was great to watch this with my class and with our history teacher. Truly memorable experience...not only because of the film.

For all the struggles, sweat and toil, thou shalt be rewarded with yet another Oscar.

Oppenheimer from Nolan, Dune: Part 2 from Villenueve, and Napoleon from Ridley Scott. What an epic year for epics this is! Cinema was on life support, but these three directors are refusing to let it die!

Joaquin Phoenix took the "don't let them know your next move" to a whole new level

Napoleon: there's is nothing we can do...

You may not have noticed that Ridley Scott played the same classical music piece in both "Alien 1979" and this movie. It is String Quintet in E Major, Op. 11, No. 5: III. Minuet. Evidently, he loves this.

Despite the inaccuracies, this is an awesome movie, dont know why people hate it so much

Thank goodness movie directors still making historical epics to this day

Each generation should have a Napoleonic movie, this story is so enormous you could tell it a hundred different times and it would still be mind boggling.

1:10 " I am destined for greatness, but those in power only see me as a sword.".

I can't wait to watch Napoleon, it's a great movie.

As a French I'm certain of one thing : in my country, this movie will touch everyone, for the better and for the worse.

"My enemies are many, my equals are none." As a NTW enjoyer this has to be one of the most exciting trailer drops of the year

Now This is what you call an Epic Trailer!

The "Völkerschlacht" at Leipzig was the biggest battle in history before World War 1 and it's missing in the movie. Even in the battle of Waterloo there were more Prussian (German) troops then British ones. And those troops turned the tide. Why do we still keep Germans out of historical movies and always show Brits as the big heroes. The history of the German peoples shapes the history of europe like no other. Still it's so often overlooked...

For Ridley Scott to be in his 80s and still making these energetic epics just showcases that age is truly a number. He, George Miller, and Martin Scorsese still putting out cinematic epics in their older ages.

I don't think a movie of 2-3 hours can comprehend the complexity of Napoleon's life, but it can capture the character, can't wait!

I JUST WATCHED THIS FILM. YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT NAPOLEON LIFE BEFORE WATCHING THIS MOVIE (OR IT WILL BE CONFUSING). THEY FOCUS MORE ON THE RELATIONSHIP OF HIM AND HIS WIFE RATHER THAN HIS CAREER. 7/10

Danny DeVito would have been perfect as Napoleon.

The most mind-boggling thing about Buonaparte was he was able to defeat 4 armies in 6 days with an army less than half the size of his foes, and this happened in the twilight period of his career in the Seine valley.

from Commodus in Gladiator, Johnny Cash in Walk The Line, to Joker and now as Napoleon, damn! we believe in Joaquin Phoenix supremacy!

God what is it about the world today that companies insist on playing a modern music soundtrack over a trailer. It just doesn't always work, especially for fantasy, or historical epics.

My favorite scene of the movie is when Napoleon fought together with Harry Potter to defeat Darth Vader!!!

This movie needs to be atleast 3 hours long. It's going to be sooo good i can just feel it.

movie of a historical figure drops: I sleep 😴 There's a radiohead song on the trailer: Real Shit?

Well, at least the trailers were good.

Napolen fought about 60 battles during his career, he won 52 of them a phenomenal success rate probably without equal throughout history, the film looks amazing.

Yes, yes, and yes. Bring back the historic epics genre to front of cinema. Classic already

Trailer: Ha, there's nothing that I can't do! Actual movie:...there's nothing I can do right...

Thanks a lot Ridley Scott, i'm proud to be french 🙂

I'm glad there's still a market for these epic type of films. Especially when it's done by Ridley Scott.

“I’m the first one to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do” Epic

When we know the history of France, Napoleon was a heros and had unconditinal admiration for the woman who was his friend, his confidante and his wife...Josephine de Beauharnois. It is so obvious, through redundancies of situations, that the producer lacked money ! It is the WORST interpretation of such a great man who changed the course of history and that of France. I am impatiently waiting for a lover of history to produce that of Napoleon in all its splendor and reality. Be patient and keep your money !

The great Kubrick and Ridley Scott both attempted the Everest (though Saint-Bernard) of painted this man.

“I’m the first to admit when I make a mistake. I simply never do.” That’s one bone-chilling line.

Joaquin is PERFECT for this role AND NOT because of his stature but he has that death stare that is depicted in so many Napoleon portraits.

"In politics... never retreat, never retract... never admit a mistake." - Napoleon Bonaparte

I especially liked it when Napoleon was like, "Its Napoleonin' time"

about time we get back to epic historical films like this, its been too long since gladiator

An extremely remarkable and immersive production🎉👌👌

Was that Ronaldo shouting siiii at 0:15?😂

Fun fact, Napoleon was so good at logistics that during his time in exile on Elba, he oversaw massive infrastructure projects like building new road networks, farms and draining marshes. He even opened new mines (along with retrofitting old ones) and overhauled the islands schools and legal system.

That last battle on the ice really drew me in. The Battle of Austerlitz/of the Three Emperors was one of the greatest masterpieces of Napoleon's service career, but he wouldn't get to see such successes as the rest of Europe saw him as a more and more serious threat.

Great movie, well done to the producers⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

"Use blade or dagger, to fasten the kill" - John Saya Marston

This film better be atleast 3 hour long considering how much they need to condense in one movie

"The problem with quotes on the internet is that you can't always be sure of their authenticity" - Napoleon

I think this was a bloody good film, especially the way he interacted with Josephine.

Never understood movies where the main language is the opposite of the true story. It’s like watching a WW2 where the germans speak English.

“Victory belongs to the most persevering.”- Napoleon Bonaparte

"Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake!" ---Napoleon Bonaparte.

Hopefully Ridley Scott wins an Oscar this time around.. His stars Russell Crowe .. Joaquin Phoenix had both won an Oscar.. and so did his film Gladiator.. 😊😊

Should have called the film Waterloo since it was a disaster.

After watching I think Ridley hates Napoleon

YES YES YES. Finally the Napoleonic era is getting a little bit of the attention it deserves!
