This is an excellent mini series. Although it is 6 hours, it can't even begin to tell Napoleon's eventful life. The mini series tried to captured all the important points in Napoleon's life but can only spend so much time on each. From Napoleon's battles to love affairs, they were all represented beautifully. I didn't find any part of the series to be dry or rigid and the plot moved at a good pace separating each episode that corresponds to 3-4 years of Napoleon's life. The battle scenes (which is initially what drew me to this series), was nicely done. Not the Hollywood style high-def scenes but it conveys the message nicely. Although I have never seen this actor in any movies, his performance was flawless and greatly contributed to Napoleon's character. I definitely recommend this mini series to anyone who'd like to know Napoleon Bonaparte a little bit more.

This serial is about Napoleon Bonaparte, emperor of the French people after The French Revolution takes place. The only thing really lacking in this film is the war scenes. They simply don't use enough soldiers to give a realistic effect of a battle. The rest of the serial is very good. The acting is good and what I especially liked is how they show closeups of the characters at certain times. The music is good and theatrical sounding. The costumes worn by the characters are expensive and beautiful (much like French design is in real life) and the architecture of the houses was splendidly recreated in great details.I bought this series from A&E and definitely recommend watching it if you're a guy who's interested in historical serials. Napoleon is one of the most fascinating of them all, so who better to watch one about?

This is a great film !It gives a new, and renewed, light on the Empire and the troubled period that led to it.The actor performance is impressive. Clavier shows is a great actor, and can act beyond simple comedy (as he did also in the Misérables). He is a wonderful Napoléon. Same thing for Malkovich (as usual), Depardieu and Rosselini.It is an epic. A must ! This is the picture you will want to see many times. After you have seen it, you could also want to read the book by Gallo that served as a basis for it.
