Napoleon Forms His Forces In The Battle of Austerlitz | Napoleon

Napoleon is an epic historical drama based on the story of Napoleon Bonaparte, primarily depicting the French leader's rise to power and he joins the forces to strike against the opponents. Napoleon becomes the crowned Emperor of the French by the pope in 1804, during which he audaciously puts the crown on his own head. Foreign Minister Talleyrand suggests to Austria an alliance, though the Austrians dismiss the idea, and the battle starts!

Still cannot believe that a Ridley Scott movie would be this hard to watch! If only he had focused more on the military aspects of Napolean like in this scene instead of magnifying solely his toxic relationship with his wife. What an epic missed opportunity on such an epic topic.

Napoleon at Austerlitz : Appears weak on his right flank to bait the Russian into concentrating their attack there, then sends his center to assault the Pratzen height to cut the enemy army in half, create confusion and shoot down the retreating soldiers from the hill.
Ridley Scott: "No lol he just hid soldiers under white blankets"

5:46 "Send in the infantry, take their positions on the High ground!" Shows Troops charging downwards. God this scene felt like watching a carwreck.

This makes me want to re-watch Waterloo (1970) with Rod Steiger as Napoleon and Christopher Plummer as the Duke of Wellington.

Given the gross inaccuracies they may as well have added sharks in the lake. Or have orcas attack people through the ice. That would have been really cool!

[FinestaGang]

Time to watch Kings and Generals or Epic History TV to cleanse my self!

[Godisgood]

I must admit, this scene shows great technical production quality and effects, although the historical inaccuracies just shine way too brightly

Ridley Scott's new alternative history

[jamesdiaz]

What an epic failure by Ridley Scott and Jaoquin Pheonix was as wooden as a post. A horrific missed opportunity that speaks poorly of the sequel to Gladiator to come. What a disappointment.

Apparently Holywood doesn't have enough money to hire a historian or something.

[acrbic]

you can give some leeway to ridley scott and say that no movie has to be 100% historically accurate. but whats truly regrettable isnt just the fact that this battle nowhere near resembles the actual battle of austerlitz, but also the fact that if scott had just told the story of austerlitz as it happened it would certainly have been more entertaining - where the austrians and russians werent just idiots who walked on ice. a crying shame.

[EN-Fitz]

Scott took the most documented, well known battle, in military history, and this is how he filmed it?

[CAnnino]

While incredibly historically inaccurate, this is a beautifully shot battle scene. Something which is rare in big screen productions these days.

GOSH !!!!
I have been a buff of Napoleonic history for 30+ years and until now I never realized all those books I carefully read and all those documentaries I watched were just fake. Thank you Riddley Scott for showing me the

By "higher ground" I think the term they were searching for was "element of surprise."

They seriously should've talked to some Napoleonic war reenactors/historians and gotten some serious feedback

[Thrchagan]

How nice for Napoleon to prepare an ice bath for those soldiers... I hear the health benefits are incredible.

As bad as this scene is for its complete disregard for history I will praise the heck out of the music. It struck a chord in me. Really showed the hell that is war and honestly I struggle to come back to this video because of the music and the fact that men fell through the ice (which was historically accurate). The music just screams that those guys didn't have a chance. Haunting. Made me want to pursue peace and no time like now to push for that.

[samhavoc]

Ridley Scott's Napoleon. Dumpster fire filled with radioactive material...

[Sajasta]

My Napoleon Total War campaign is a lot more accurate than this movie, the only inaccuracy in my game is that i lost Marechal Ney, Davout, and Massena when invading Britain at 1806
