For the people saying we shouldn't complain about inaccuracies, imagine if the first scene of Saving private Ryan had been Eisenhower riding a horse charge in Omaha Beach. And Hitler showed up from behind the hills leading a flight of Apache helicopters from the Luftwaffe. This is how it feels watching this movie if you have the slightest knowledge about the Napoleonic wars 😂

[nicoospina]

That sniper must have been grinding all night to unlock that scope

[andrewstorey]

Check out the 1970 movie ‘Waterloo’. A masterpiece in how to film battle scenes pre cgi. There were literally tens of thousands of extras used to film the massed ranks of the French and allied armies. One particularly shot where the camera pans from right to left along the allied line is simply breathtaking.

[shintownalley]

Scott had a 50% chance of getting the direction of Blücher’s attack correct. He butchered that too.

[masonreeves]

Next thing you know Scott is going to make a movie with Abraham Lincoln fighting at Gettysburg.

[Master-Mirror]

Napoleon swinging his sword and stabbing people in the midst of battle like a damn hussar is one of the most absurd things I have ever seen. What was Scott thinking?

If Napoleon actually did something like that he would be dead in seconds because everyone would know who he was. Not to mention the fact that he would not be able to direct the battle.

[doublep]

Wait wait wait.... is that a British "sharpshooter", armed with a flintlock rifle that has a *SCOPE* like a modern day sniper rifle, taking a shot at Napoleon?!
*WHAT THE ACTUAL SHIT, RIDLEY SCOTT?!*

[EagleEyeM]

Lashing a spyglass to your Baker rifle... Now that's soldiering.

"Waterloo". 1970 starring Rod Steiger. NO CGI

[staceyfake]

Mon Dieu! I had heard that the Waterloo sequence was bad, but I never dreamed it was THIS bad. Forget the fact that absolutely no attempt was made to show any real tactics (but at least they did have the Anglo-Allied troops forming squares in the face of a cavalry charge) ... but trenches/field works? A huge French camp immediately behind the ridiculously thin battle line? The two armies just running at each other and looking more like "Braveheart" than Waterloo? Napoleon himself leading a cavalry charge, and with no Marshal Ney in sight (at least no officer that in any way resembled Ney) and then personally skewering at least one Brit? A sniper with a scope taking a pot shot at Nappy and blowing a hole in his famous hat? Napoleon turning and raising his sword as if to salute Wellington across the field? The list goes on.

I actually think "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Slayer" may have been a more historically accurate movie than this... but it's a close call.

Watch Rod Steiger and Chirstopher Plummer in Sergey Bondarchuk's epic 1970's "Waterloo" instead of this pile of steaming merde de cheval from Sir Ridley "Were-you-there?" Scott.

If ridley scott was a marshall and used this levels of strategy, napoleon would call him an imbecile

[davidjunker]

“SIR! BLUCHER!”

*Every horse on the battlefield rears up on its hind legs and whinnies*

[andrewsmith]

One of the worst cases of historical inaccuracy put to film. Truly disgraceful treatment of the battle which shaped Europe for the next hundred years.

[clarkewood]

Safe to say, nothing like that happened at Waterloo. The whole set up was absurd.

[jetuber]

They cut the lightsabre duel between Napoleon and Wellington. Might as well have left that in.

[freerbx]

3:07 When all your cavalry has routed so you have to charge in your general:

[markmooroolbark]

There looks to be a bout two thousand men in the entire battle field and the grass is green and as dry as a bowling green. Napolean swinging his sword in battle and then the shocking acting by the so called Duke of Wellington as Blucher suddenly emerges from nowhere is Monty Pythonesque. This is truly hideous!

[JGG]

I get that a Hollywood films has to make a film exciting, but with the Napoleonic wars you really don't have to make anything up to make it exciting to watch.

[timothypoulter]

There's only one battle of Waterloo and that's in the 1970 film version which catpures the vast scale and horror of that encounter.
Scott's version (all be it cramped into an already overfull attempt at Napoleon's life) looks like a minor battle and sadly the lack of numbers tell.

A Year ago i went to a small museum in Sens, France. To my surprise in the middle of it is a very dark room with Napoleon‘s hat on display, which he supposedly wore during the battle of Waterloo. No bullet holes in it. It still sent chivers down my spine because it was so unexpected to see that object there.
