Film also didn't have: Ulm. Marengo. Eaylu. Leipzig. Movies are a time economy. I think the real issue is the film didn't know what it wanted to be: drama about Napoleon's life or a war film and by trying to be both it diminished the potential of both.
OMG, It's more like an invasion of Mongolia. Apparently, it was impossible for Mr. Scott to avoid stupid stereotypes, such as that the Russian army consisted of Asians dressed as Mongol warriors maybe 5 centuries before the events described. Even June in wеstern part (at that time) of Russia, in Mr. Scott's mind, looks more like spring in the tundra above the Arctic Circle.
Yes, ridiculous nonsense. And there are plenty of sources to make sure to get this right, but no one bothers. Take a look at the Duellists, another otherwise sumptuous historical movie, but the French invasion of Russia just looks embarrassingly silly. It seems that when it comes to Russia, the West's brain goes off the rails.
The Russia-Napoleon story it is a movie on it's own, while in this film they only picked out the Moscow fire story... There's so much more to this. The Napoleon army suffered the largest losses in this Russian campaign, more than a half million souls, I believe, and they were from all over Europe, not France only. Ironically, history repeats itself.

I had italian ancestors in both invasions in napelonic and ww2 well you know what they said about invading Russia 3rd times a charm just kidding hope I don't have to do that
The appearance of Russians is more similar to Northern Europeans and similar to the inhabitants of Eastern Europe. There were warriors from the Asian provinces, but it was an irregular army and they were cavalry - not infantry or artillery. It feels like it was filmed by Netflix.
@r.m2072 in the west of Russia? huh? You think someone would find this reasonable to bring east-asian looking people from literally other edge of continental empire? Cossack culture lies origin from slavic people, who were obviously later were interconnected with late colonisation of Siberia, the thing is the innumerous asian population haven't layed significant mark on ethnic slavs who moved there, but the question remains, why would you even bring Baikal Cossacks who's obligation was to control the river outposts in the eastern edges of the empire to the Napoleonic battlefield in the West of Russia, where the abundance of common slavic population are ready to serve and protect the land their forfathers sowed
@m i dont know what your argueing here bro it is well documented that tsar alexander used cossack scouts during the napoleanic invasion, the russian army had like 600000 people recruited from all over the empire...i dont know why they look asian in this crappy film but they were definetely being depicted as cosacks , the ambush and recon and harassment was their bread and butter
@m During the Napoleonic Wars (1799-1815), the Cossacks were Russia's unique and plentiful supply of irregular cavalry. They were employed as skirmishers, raiders and scouts, and their tactics of harassment and harrying caused great problems for Napoleon's Grand Armée as it retreated through Russia in 1812. Dont know why they looked asian in this crappy film but that is what they were in this scene .
Сначала обалдел от Наполеона с шашкой наголо в лихой атаке. Потом вспомнил, это ж Хоакин наш Феникс. Он и римским императором в бытность гладиатором сражался. Пойдёт.
As a person from Russia, I was perplexed that the audience was not properly shown the battle of Borodino. They spent only 1-2 minutes on the battle itself, while the same Vaterllo was shown longer (Although there is also plenty of outright nonsense, like British soldiers with a musket to which an optical sight was attached). What Kutuzov, Barclay de Toli and Bagration? What other Raevsky battery was there for which there were fierce battles? Why say that Napoleon lost all his cavalry at Borodino and could not properly restore it? Why show the French marshals Ney, Murat, Grouchy, Davout? Why show the French crossing the river after the retreat? Why show "Battle of the Nations"? Ridley Scott isn't interested. He believes that audiences will enjoy watching the bleak love story of Napoleon and Josephine.
True Borodino should have been shown in more detail, and Scott definitely should have shown the battle of Berezina, big bummer! So many crazy things happened there that could have been included in a dramatic reenactment of the French tragedy: - The French moved to cross the river and narrowly avoided Chichagov's men on the western Berezina bank -The engineer/ pontonier corps secretly disobeyed Napoleon's order to leave bridge building equipment behind during retreat, allowing them to bridge the Berezina when they reached it. They built 2 bridges in the cold water, some dying of hypothermia. - The massacre of cold and hungry French stragglers trying to reach bridges by the Russian vanguard - One of the bridges collapsed twice but the engineers somehow managed to repair it! - Marshal Victor's rearguard taking heavy casualties but managing to hold the Russians under Wittgenstein so the French can evacuate to the other shore. -Chichagov later caught up but not fast enough to completely stop the French on the western shore of the Berezina This is why books and documentaries are better!
No, the Russians lost all their battles to the French and lost their army due to Winter! And the Nomads in Russia, dozens of nations, they defeat and the Russians piss on themselves
Вообще-то такие шапки служили хорошим защитным шлемом от сабли. Конусообразные шапки Кивер именно были высокими для защиты головы от разрубания режущем предметом.
I'm Russian and it's funny to me to tears to see how Cossacks with bows and arrows are depicted here, well, okay, I know that Ridley Scott is a terrible director who drank all his talent a long time ago, but imagine what idiots he made the French and the Great Napoleon that he lost the war against an army of ragamuffins with bows and arrows. Did he study with George Lucas where stormtroopers moving across the galaxy and destroying entire planets lost to furry cats with sticks and bows? Even in the 16th century, the Cossacks never used bows and were armed with firearms and sabers. The Napoleon movie is another Ridley Scott-type Prometheus.
Movies aren't supposed to be completely historically accurate. Movies are meant to draw emotions, to get their audience engaged, and in these occasions, try to remake historical events while still making them enjoyable to watch. Most people wouldn't be entertained unless Ridley Scott did it this way. This is a movie, not a series or a documentary, which is what you're really asking for. In a few words, you're a sad, miserable individual too unhappy with his life and having to come here to comment nonense.
I think the most appropriate conclusion for this movie which might not have been financially viable, was to make it into two movies or even a trilogy. The story of Napoleon has clearly got too many big events with detail that needs to be included to chain the thing together. Borodino, Austerlitz, these battles could both last 30 minutes easy in the re-telling.
I think that this movie, no matter which direction they would take or what they would decide to do, had no hope whatsoever just because Ridley Scott was in charge. He is the first, second and third problem with this movie. Never had a chance.
@@seperependipity Боту с оптиков 4 всё нужно смешать в кучу. Вот причина . Стоит отметить ,что Наполеон не хотел воевать с Россией ,и России была совершенно не нужна эта война ,это англичане заставили Россию вступить в войну ,убив Павла и поставив править "ЛЫСОГО ЩЕГОЛЯ ,ВРАГА ТРУДА.." Сашу 1 . А Россия всегда была при Романовых (кроме Петра и Павла) английской собакой. Куда входил Наполеон там отменялось крепостное право. Наполеон великий военноначальник и тактик Но в плане тыла и обеспечения тупой баран , придти в Россию по форме 4 воевать ,мог только дегенерат . 8 сентября ,после продолжительных ливней уже срывался первый снег в пиджочках зимой много не навоюешь . Бородино показало ,что наши противопоставить в плане боя ни чего не могут, французы не введя элиту в бой потеряли в три раза меньше убитыми ,чем наши обороняющиеся войска ( позорище). И стоит отметить что когда наши войска пришли в Париж то по самым скромным подсчётам 20 тыс ,а в реальности более 40 тыс. так и осталось в нём ( увидав , что общество там свободное от рабства солдаты начали прибиваться в французкие семьи ) ) и поэтому нужно было срочно сниматься с якоря и валить домой. Этот поход и открыл глаза многим ,что вылилось позже в выступление ДЕКАБРИСТОВ. И не нужно сравнивать рабство над своим народом в РФ и то что было в некоторых странах Европы. Русских русские продавали и использовали как скот .Создавали гаремы (Троекуров в Дубровском у Пушкина), убивали травили собаками .Доводили до самоубийства .(Салтыков -Щедрин ""Миша и Ваня). Рабство было на Руси отменено наравне с неграми США и то после позорнейшей крымской компании ,когда передовые страны в которых не было рабства пришли учить деградированного соседа. на паровых крейсерах с нарезными пушками и нарезными винтовками у матросов ,а их вышел встречать самый тупой и дегенеративный из Романовых коля Палкин на Петровских парусниках с гладкоствольной артиллерией и гладкоствольными ружьями у матросов (раб не создаст паровую машину) .и хватило ума самим затопить этот морально устаревший флот. А дальше было избиение младенцев ,Нарезные пушки перебивая береговую артиллерию ( позорище!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) сравняли Севастополь ,А англо французкие солдаты расстреливали русских солдат идущих в штыковой бой за 300 шагов как они это делали в Африке с племенами .Больно читать дневники участников тех событий. И только после этого позорища Саша2 отменил рабство что бы не разделить участь Османской империи. и сделал это по романовски через задницу.
On December 5, 1812, Napoleon left the remnants of his army to freeze in Russia and fled to Paris. In the spring of 1814, the Russian army was already in Paris. Napoleon abdicated the throne.
It was not the Russians who entered Paris but all of Europe, supported by British gold. The Russians alone never defeated Napoleon. Borodino is a French victory: the Russian losses were much higher than the French, and with the retreat of the Russian army in the night that followed the battle, the doors of Moscow were wide open to the French. Balance sheet: huge losses Abandonment of the battlefield Moscow open city = how to interpret history to make it a victory?
@@mlipeck Actually in Wiki they said that: "The French lost about roughly the same number of soldiers as Russia". It seems correct estimation because if the victory of France was so undisputable why Napoleon later on could not win in Maloyaroslavets and had to return via the same devastated region (Smolensk). So your opinion about the huge Russian losses is not correct.
uh no he didnt flee to paris. he continued to fight in battles quoted by wellington as showing his true genius, and most of the fighting was between him prussia and austria
@@Vlad-sv8tz Strange, We don’t have the same wiki ... This is mine. Battle of Borodino French Commanders: Napoleon I Louis Nicolas Davout Michel Ney Eugène de Beauharnais Joachim Murat Russian Commanders: Mikhail Kutuzov Piotr Ivanovitch Bagration † Michel Barclay de Tolly French forces in presence 130,000 men including: 102,000 infantrymen 28,000 horsemen 587 guns Russian forces present 138,000 men including: 110,000 infantrymen 9,000 Cossacks 19,000 militias 624 guns French losses: 28,000 dead or injured 13 guns captured Russian losses: 45,000 dead or injured 100 to 200 prisoners 15 - 60 guns captured We notice that the French and allied forces were a little less numerous than the Russians. About the Battle of Maloïaroslavets: It took place on 24 October 1812 during the War of the Sixth Coalition, during the Russian Campaign, between the vanguard of the Grande Armée, commanded by Eugène de Beauharnais, and the forces of Alexander I. The Franco-Italian troops could not break through to the south, forcing Napoleon to evacuate Russia by the road already followed on the way, by a devastated region and lacking provisions, turning Russia’s retreat into a disaster. French Commanders: Eugène de Beauharnais Napoleon Bonaparte Alexis Joseph Delzons † Russian Commander: Dmitri Dokhturov Presence forces: 15,000 French and Italian against 20,000 Russians Fatalities: 5000 killed or wounded French, 6000 killed or wounded Russian We see that this battle had fatal consequences for Napoleon, but on the purely military level it cannot be compared to the battle of Borodino, and cannot represent either the demonstration of a military superiority of the Russians. The Russians never decisively defeated Napoleon: Austerlitz victory of Napoleon Eylau victory of Napoleon Friedland victory of Napoleon Borodino victory of Napoleon. Even the passage of the Berezina can be considered as a demonstration of Napoleon’s military genius. The Russians thought it was time to strike the blow and capture Napoleon. He escaped them with his Imperial Guard by making absolutely remarkable arrangements. After the disastrous retreat of Russia Napoleon managed to reassemble an army with which he would fight against the whole of Europe coalition for 1.5 years, with many victories that forced the admiration of his opponents. Its final defeat is due to numbers. And the Russian presence in Paris was only possible thanks to the uprising of an entire continent. Without the coalition of all European forces the Russians would never have succeeded. But all this does not detract from the Great Russian Patriotic Spirit who has shown on many occasions his strength and determination. But Napoleon is above men. He is one of those geniuses who transcend human history. His work is not only military. Its Civil Code has served as a model for more than 80 countries around the world! The list of all his work would be too long ...

My 4x great-grandfather served as a soldier in the Württemberg regiments with the Grande Armée in Moscow. He survived as one of the few from his regiment and walked the entire way back to Poland on foot. Due to severe frostbite on his feet and hands, which had cost him half of his feet and several fingertips in the harsh Russian winter, he had to use crutches for the rest of his life. From the infirmary in Poland, he wrote to his father in the Black Forest - detailing the incredible cruelties he experienced and witnessed, as all his comrades perished, succumbing to wounds, cold, hunger, diseases, and even wild animals. With his last ounce of strength, wounded and mentally scarred, he managed to make it back into the French sphere of influence - and there, on the sickbed, he married the camp follower who had accompanied him and refused to abandon him - my great-great-great-great-grandmother. Such a story is worth telling, not just the tale of the megalomaniac monarch who callously sacrificed hundreds of thousands for his ambitions.

My great-great...grandfather served as a conscript in the 37th infantry regiment, he was also part of the Russian invasion. He got left behind in mid-august 1812 in present-day Belarus (around the city of Polotsk). What happened to him is unclear, but he made it back to his hometown a few years later, but he had lost the use of his left hand. In 1858 he was awarded the Saint-Helena medal
My ancestor was French) He was captured by the Cossacks who were covering the retreat of the Russian army to Moscow. He remained with them until the end of the war, then went to join the regiment in Kuban. He took a local wife and had many children. Later he took part in wars for the Kuban Cossacks.

True. Most of his army died because the supply lines were overextended, not because of the Russian winter. Invading Russia was a disaster from the start.
A huge part of his army ( not the French but the troops from the other European countries he recruited) actually deserted during the end of summer/beginning of fall. They realized that this campaign was doomed and got the hell out of Russia. But Napoleon in his hybris & arrogance, though himself invincible and his French troops still followed him without question.
Смоленская битва похоронила надежду Наполеона разбить русскую армию по частям в 16-19 Августа 1812 г. Барклаю де Толли и Багратиону угрожали разгром поодиночке. Они отступали, ведя ожесточённые арьергардные бои. Советники Александр предлагали отвести 1-ю Западную армию к лагерю близ Дриссы и принять главный удар Наполеона, а 2-я армия атаковала бы фланги и тылы врага. Но отказались в самый последний момент от плана, убедившись в правильности позиций и численном превосходстве французов. Прорыв Багратиона через Могилёв не удался. Армии успели соединиться лишь под Смоленском. Войско Наполеона растянулось, но попытка русского контрнаступления провалилась. Неверовскому удалось сдержать авангард Мюрата. Русские части укрепились в Смоленске, но не чтобы отстоять его, а для того, чтобы задержать неприятеля и переправить армию через Днепр. Им это удалось. Наполеон достался сгоревший город. Его армия уходила всё дальше от провиантских баз и растягивала коммуникации, а русская, несмотря на тяжелейшие удары, оставалась боеспособной.
Почему Наполеон шёл на Москву, если столица была в Петербурге? Он гнался за русской армией, а та отступала к Москве. Барклай де Толли пошёл на соединение с Багратионом, а дорогу на Петербург закрыл, оставив 1-й корпус Витгенштейна. Прикрывая свой левый фланг, Наполеон направил против Витгенштейна корпус Удино. Гусары Кульнева застигли врага на марше и атаковали. Французы были вынуждены остановиться в Клястицах. Не позволяя противнику сосредоточить силы, Вингенштейн развил наступление. Артиллерия Удино оказалось бессильна перед Павловскими гренадёрами, провавшимися по горящему мосту, и конницей, форсировавшей реку вброд. Удино отступал к Полоцку. Для его усиления Наполеон направил корпус Сен-Сира. Витгенштейн надёжно прикрыл Санкт-Петербург, сковал значительные силы французов и не позволил им принять участие в Бородинском сражении. Победа русских под Клястицами стала одной из первых в войне 1812 года.
Should have been a 3 part movie series broken up as follows: Movie 1. "Rise of the Corsican Eagle" - Covers Napoleon's early life, military education, and rise to prominence, focusing on events up to and including the Italian Campaign (1769-1799). Movie 2. "Emperor of Europe" - Explores Napoleon's rule as First Consul, his coronation as Emperor, and major military campaigns, including Austerlitz and the Peninsular War (1800-1812). Movie 3. "Fall of the Eagle" - Chronicles Napoleon's downfall, from the Russian Campaign to the Battle of Waterloo, his exile to Elba, return to power, and ultimate defeat at Waterloo, leading to his exile on Saint Helena (1812-1821). Each film would need at least 2hrs 15mins.
nice job, Ridley - snow on the ground in June at the start of the clip (it was searingly hot when the Army crossed the Nieman River), the middle-aged Emperor leads a cavalry attack (non-historically stupid beyond belief) and Napoleon eats his hat as Moscow burns - which of these is worse? Scott has met his Waterloo.
@@stevekay5486yeah - the aging Emperor was suffering from hemorrhoids for some of the day, and Scott has him leading cavalry charges - simply absurd (stick to the Duellists instead)
They still repeat the lie that winter influenced the actions of the EU army. In fact, the 600,000 army of the European Union under the command of Napoleon invaded Russia in June, and left Russia in November.
Yeah, they never talk about Kutuzov who is historically considered the most successful general in the history. Can't make proper depiction if your writing is mediocre.
On the flip side though, you had better medical treatment and off duty life (an economy with products you could buy to make you happy, etc.) during napoleonic times, they didn’t even know about germs. Let that sink in
>Ancient battle tactics >ancient mate, this was like 200 hundred years ago. Literally fucking nothing compared to human history. also movie got everything wrong. No one was fighting like this.
This movie suck ass. Battles were too over simplified and small scale. Everyone was barely using formation or their fkin guns. The patriot was actually better at battle scenes lmao. Napoleon wasn't charismatic at all. I dont see anyone following this awkward ahh emperor of a man. Ridley scott rlly englishfied Napoleon

Хотя у нас в дубляже не слышно, но это не главное. Тот идёт аж 6 часов и то все показано не полностью. Актёрский состав великолепный. Там и Джон Малкович и Жерар Депардье. Посмотрите не пожалеете.
Спасибо за совет, начал просмотр - Клавье, конечно, потрясающий и харизматичный актёр, мне кажется более убедительным в роли Наполеона (вообще его только по комедийным ролям знал). Не в обиду Фениксу - он тоже талантливый актёр, но, видимо, сам фильм (режиссура + сценарий) слабый.
Шутите? Это художественный фильм о Наполеоне, этот фрагмент о его первой неудаче. Если нужна достоверность, то надо смотреть исторический фильм. А тут не это главное
Logistics is always what makes or breaks an army. He would have done better to withdraw to a city on the coast of the Baltic and resume his assault in the spring. Taking Moscow doomed his army.

they didn't showed kutuzov who was fighting against him in russia, kutuzov said - "We will not defeat Napoleon, we will deceive him", and they didn't showed how after moscow he was fighting against random small groups and how he was lost for couple of days didn't know where to go and etc, its just looks like they cutted like 30 mins of it and jump straight to next scene, borodino battle was kinda fast too
Napo was scared to retreat oyver the same land he ravaged for supplies on the advance to Moscow. He was probably correct, but somehow, the French didn't have maps? ot a route to the South. In the end he had to run back the road they knew. It's a mis-statement that Napo lost 500,000 men. He only fielded 200,000+ at Borodino. All the other units where guarding the flanks. Flanks that were 800 miles long, EACH. There are a lot of war diaries online that describe the actions on the flanks. Dialy harrassments. My fav is the little town that was "walled" in history, they'd let small groups of scavaging French in, hst and feed them. Then slaughter them at night.

@mvenmass Yep when I first read War and Peace, it was said to be a difficult book to read. I skipped the high society stuff and the political jibber jabber and read the battle scenes. That was when I was 18. I then started reading Bernard Cornwell's Sharpe series set in the Napoleonic Wars. It too goes into the politics and high society and stuff. But I was also watching the Sharpe TV series. So I read everything and loved it. Have recently read War and Peace all the way through and loved it.
@@jessepassage425 From the trailers I expected to see lots of napoleons conquers. His rise and fall in his battles and tactics. I understand the political part and relationship, but felt like we got too much of that and too little of what people truly remember Napoleon by: An Emperor of the French Revolution.
Not sure why they didn't show more of Borodino, it was one of the most important battles for Napoleon and a pretty cool one too... just imagine the close-up shots of the clouded by explosions battlefield, lots of burning fortifications, assaults on artillery batteries, hills covered by corpses, grape shots turning formations into red mist, scenes of cavalry raids from the flanks (and not head on bs). Could have been so beautiful. The other thing is like... movie didn't even briefly show what happened *after* Moscow was set on fire, which is important. Made it look like it was just winter, but in reality, Russian Empire's army made a huge manover and cut off Napoleon's army that was retreating out of the city, which forced him to leave a lot of resources behind in not organized manner, take unfavorable fights, send men for certain death just to win some time while they were crossing cold rivers, eat horses and etc. it was a brutal, desperate, bloodiest fucking chase.
This movie was made from a completed Netflix TV series with one hour edited out .Hopefully when the full TV series is shown with the extra hour added back in it will improve .
Это сейчас вообще что было? Горе - режиссеры не знающие ни культуры,ни нравов,ни обычаев страны, смеют показывать своё невежество, выдавая это за кино. Господа, хотите посмотреть действительно достойное кино , чтобы понять всё то, что было написано выше? Понять масштаб катастрофы, беды какая постигла Россию при вторжение Бонапарта, о стойкости и мудрости русского народа,о его духовном величии. Для начала, читайте классику Л.Н. Толстой "Война и Мир",а экранизация 1965 года, режиссёра Сергея Бондарчука.

Napoleon, the French Revolution and the wars that followed are so complex that one film or even a trilogy is not enough to provide a proper balanced account of what happened and who did what and why. It is an amazing story that needs to be told over a whole series, similar in depth and scope to Game of Thrones... If we can do it for fantasy, surely there is even more reason to give our real history, events and people the same treatment.
It really shouldve been a trilogy tbh French revolution until Robespierre gets executed, Rise of Napoleon and the end of the third coalition, Russia+fall of napoleon. Maybe 4th movie where he comes back and gets beaten at waterloo
Наполеон вошел в Москву, когда еще из нее выходили русские войска и мирные жители....потом начались грабежи, пожар и т.д. Дальше Наполеон не понимал что делать. Идти на Санкт-Петербург или Нижний Новгород и столкнуться еще раз с армией Кутузова, которая отступила на подготовленные позиции и имела все види припасов ИЛИ ждать в Москве видя как умирает разлагаясь армия тысячи языков! Да это была армия тысячи народов, а не только ФРАНЦУЗОВ!
Napoleon self-destructed in Russia; during the invasion of 1812, he was still undefeated, he could legitimately believe himself invested by "fortune". Like a demigod, nothing could defeat him, except himself. Without Russia its defeat of 1814 is impossible. He would have remained on the throne for 30 more years.
Truth be told he was defeated in Russia 🇷🇺 ,he went to Russian with 600,000 men and returned with only 40,000 ,560,000 men loosed their lives that shit is crazy !!
@@jermainemyles1825 It's the untold deaths that really baffles the mind. During his attack and retreat both sides from Russia to western Europe used none stop scorched earth tactics. The troops might as well of all stayed home and just starved their own populations. The warfare was mass murder. The tactics were mass murder. Culling peasants . That's all it ever was, ww1 and 2 were no different. Mass culls of peasants.
@@jermainemyles1825 All of his defeats from 1813-1815 occurred because he himself scuttled his Grande Armée and had only inexperienced teenagers left to enlist. Without 1812, the Bonapartes would still reign over a large part of Europe today.
Победа в войне 1812 года - заслуга не только генералов и солдат, но и организованной системы снабжения. Её возглавлял Егор Канкрит, генерал-интендант 1-й Западной армии. План обеспечения армии продовольствием, фуражом и снаряжением составляли заранее. По направлению к западной границе были построены военные дороги, склады - >, укомплектованы части для их охраны и сопровождения обозов. Это помогло на первом этапе. Чтобы избежать грабежей, реквизиции у местных жителей проводились под расписку. Впоследствии казна приняла их в счёт налогов. Губернии жертвовали деньги, транспорт, продукты. Так, Псковская губерния оказала помощь воюющему на её территории корпусу Витгенштейна на 14 млн рублей. Тяжёлую зиму 12 года армии помогло пережить снабжение из южных аграрных губерний. Канкрину даже удалось сэкономить: из выделенных на войну 426 мил было потрачено около 400. Почему из-за санкций на территории Казахстана запрещено смотреть фильм про Наполеона. Мне очень интересно. В какой стране я мог бы посмотреть фильм про Наполеона. Я бы купил билеты в эту страну. Во всех странах Азии запретили показывать фильм про Наполеона. Это национальное достояние всей Западной Европы. Запретить. Почему вы не хотите поделиться своими фильмами с нами? Вы там были? Хотели? Попробуйте?
Наполеон начал военную службу как артиллерист. Он считал: > и не раз доказывал это. Нельзя было отставать и России. Да! Да! Накануне войны 1813 года русская артиллерия стала одной из самых передовых в Европе - благодаря успешной реформы. Удалось добиться единообразного вооружения армии, ввели стандарт на производство оружия и материальной части, орудийные команды начали готовить по единой системе. Скорострельность была в 2 раза выше, чем у французов: от установки оружия до самого выстрела проходило не более 30 секунд. Тактика артиллерии в атаке: дуэль с батареями противника, чтобы не дать обстреливать наступающие войска. В обороне главные цели - атакующая пехота и кавалерия врага. Пешая артиллерия - батарейная и линейная - поддерживала пехоту. Конная - могла определить помочь кавалерии. Модернизированная артиллерия стала грозной силой - настоящим > Война - это в первую очередь наука. Умереть на войне много ума не надо. Храбрости недостаточно. Побеждает тот кто лучше учился.

When crossing the Berezina, the air temperature fluctuated around 0 Celsius. This is an indisputable fact, given that the river has not frozen, or rather, the ice has not yet been so strong that it can be moved on foot and, moreover, on horseback. Because of this, the French were forced to build crossings. So what kind of severe frosts can we talk about? Russian Russian command's more competent strategy, combined with the extremely high morale of the Russian army, was not the weather, but the main reason for Napoleon's defeat in Russia. When the war becomes a Patriotic war for Russians, it is impossible to defeat us. I hope that everyone who wants to invade Russia will remember this.
at some point he apparently complained about the script to Ridley Scott. I really hope he was complaining about how dogshit this script was and not because he was the one who actually made this script happen
@@Elliesbow This movie was made from a completed Netflix TV series with one hour edited out .Hopefully when the full TV series is shown with the extra hour added back in it will improve .
And you dont comment on history when you dont read history. Napolean incaded russia in june of 1812, genius. By august he was already settled in smolensk some 200 mi from moscow. Even when he occupied moscow the weatherwas reported as being mild. What you and ridley scott dont seem to get is that it was the RUSSIAN RESPONSE that kicked napoleans ass. Not the weather. Even if we backtrack to the battle of the pyramids, weather was ALWAYS an issue with the french army. Napolean lost more men to heat and desert than he did to the ottoman army. And yet we dont mention weather here. Why!? Because the ottoman army of 40000 strong lost to napoleon army of 10000 max (not even bc he split his 10 in half to to fight the british at acre) So again. What shouldve been underscored was the russian military attacking all of his supply depots, cutting off his LOC. and then using cossacks to trail his exhausted men. They also used effective scorch earth tactics that forced his army to move without food or sleep. Thats why he lost. The winter was simply a backdrop.
@@MrEvldreamr No one will give Russia credit for anything. Napoleon simply lost to the Weather and Hitler lost to the weather and "human wave" tactics at Stalingrad. I'm sure it's argued somewhere in the history books that the Mongols simply disbanded too.
@@themarketm8382 I mean Russia is never really seen as tactical geniuses for many reasons: 1) In most fights Russia has won they lost more men than their opps, kinda using men as meat shield, if they were tactical geniuses wouldn't have lost more men with a bigger army. 2) Most invaders fought Russians just fine in summers, they were always fucked in the winters, the armies were weak, low supply and low morale before any battle just from weather, weather killed lots of their men. so it is safe to say while Russia did have strong and big army, their advantage was weather and sometimes abundance of men not really tactics and strategies.
The invasion of the "twenty languages" is called Napoleon's attack on Russia in 1812. This war got its name because the so-called Napoleonic "Great Army" included all European nations. and there is nothing to be surprised about the peoples in the war, who also inhabit Russia.They fought for their land.
You do not know that those 20 nations sent him to get rid of him!!! And you are so deceived that do not ask how it was that those who supported him with weaponry fought him afterward!! They have fooled you!!!
I cheer every time I see Napoleon shout "See ya in the afterlife, Bagman!" as he strafes the Soviets with his F14 Tomcat. Such a historically accurate classic!

It's made primarily for an American audience. They aren't going to have him speaking French because then no one would see it, and having him speak English with a phony French accent would have been stupid. He wasn't even a native French speaker anyway. He was Corsican, so his native language was Italian. He always spoke French with an Italian accent, which really would have confused audiences.
Ik its easier said then done considering you can only fit so many huge events into one movie, but I definitely wish we could’ve seen more about the Russian campaign in this movie
As you said, you can only fit so much into one movie, and Ridley Scott attempted to cover the entirety of Napoleon's career in one film. I honestly think he did about as well as one could do, given the circumstances, and I like it for what it is, despite its shortcomings.

Visually this all looks fantastic, of course, I would expect no less from Ridley Scott, but from the few short scenes with Juaquin, I have to wonder what the hell he was thinking with his characterization of Napolean. I had the impression the man was stoic, a stalwart individual, not one prone to stuffing his head into his bicorn and having a tantrum. Correct me if I am wrong.
Out of 600 000 soldiers he had only 140 000 left by WINTER(november) , what weather killed half a million of his best warriors? Summer rain? Autumn sun? Teach hystory and tactiks stupi ameri.

First, Ridley Scott has weirdly some soft spot for fighting in the woods - it is in all his movies. Second, he has no idea how battles where fought in Napoleon times . Infantry did not run into battle breaking the lines and order, it was unthinkable. It marched slowly in even formations back and forth, but to film that, you need to train participants to do that, a lot of work and research
You’re describing textbook infantry. Battles don’t always go according to textbook. Soldiers are not textbook trained to never falter all the time in history.

The appearance of Russians is more similar to Northern Europeans and similar to the inhabitants of Eastern Europe. There were warriors from the Asian provinces, but it was an irregular army and they were cavalry - not infantry or artillery. It feels like it was filmed by Netflix.
these were cossack scouts, and they were used quite frequently

Cossack culture lies origin from slavic people, who were obviously later were interconnected with late colonisation of Siberia, the thing is the innumerous asian population haven't layed significant mark on ethnic slavs who moved there, but the question remains, why would you even bring Baikal Cossacks who's obligation was to control the river outposts in the eastern edges of the empire to the Napoleonic battlefield in the West of Russia, where the abundance of common slavic population are ready to serve and protect the land their forfathers sowed
@m i dont know what your argueing here bro it is well documented that tsar alexander used cossack scouts during the napoleanic invasion, the russian army had like 600000 people recruited from all over the empire...i dont know why they look asian in this crappy film but they were definetely being depicted as cosacks , the ambush and recon and harassment was their bread and butter
@m During the Napoleonic Wars (1799-1815), the Cossacks were Russia's unique and plentiful supply of irregular cavalry. They were employed as skirmishers, raiders and scouts, and their tactics of harassment and harrying caused great problems for Napoleon's Grand Armée as it retreated through Russia in 1812.

As a person from Russia, I was perplexed that the audience was not properly shown the battle of Borodino.
They spent only 1-2 minutes on the battle itself, while the same Vaterllo was shown longer (Although there is also plenty of outright nonsense, like British soldiers with a musket to which an optical sight was attached).
What Kutuzov, Barclay de Toli and Bagration? What other Raevsky battery was there for which there were fierce battles? Why say that Napoleon lost all his cavalry at Borodino and could not properly restore it? Why show the French marshals Ney, Murat, Grouchy, Davout? Why show the French crossing the river after the retreat? Why show "Battle of the Nations"?
Ridley Scott isn't interested. He believes that audiences will enjoy watching the bleak love story of Napoleon and Josephine.
Потому что на Западе не принято говорить о победах России.
True Borodino should have been shown in more detail, and Scott definitely should have shown the battle of Berezina, big bummer! So many crazy things happened there that could have been included in a dramatic reenactment of the French tragedy:
- The French moved to cross the river and narrowly avoided Chichagov's men on the western Berezina bank
-The engineer/ pontonier corps secretly disobeyed Napoleon's order to leave bridge building equipment behind during retreat, allowing them to bridge the Berezina when they reached it. They built 2 bridges in the cold water, some dying of hypothermia.
- The massacre of cold and hungry French stragglers trying to reach bridges by the Russian vanguard
- One of the bridges collapsed twice but the engineers somehow managed to repair it!
- Marshal Victor's rearguard taking heavy casualties but managing to hold the Russians under Wittgenstein so the French can evacuate to the other shore.
-Chichagov later caught up but not fast enough to completely stop the French on the western shore of the Berezina
This is why books and documentaries are better!

I'm Russian and it's funny to me to tears to see how Cossacks with bows and arrows are depicted here, well, okay, I know that Ridley Scott is a terrible director who drank all his talent a long time ago, but imagine what idiots he made the French and the Great Napoleon that he lost the war against an army of ragamuffins with bows and arrows. Did he study with George Lucas where stormtroopers moving across the galaxy and destroying entire planets lost to furry cats with sticks and bows? Even in the 16th century, the Cossacks never used bows and were armed with firearms and sabers. The Napoleon movie is another Ridley Scott-type Prometheus.
Movies aren't supposed to be completely historically accurate. Movies are meant to draw emotions, to get their audience engaged, and in these occasions, try to remake historical events while still making them enjoyable to watch. Most people wouldn't be entertained unless Ridley Scott did it this way. This is a movie, not a series or a documentary, which is what you're really asking for.

I think the most appropriate conclusion for this movie which might not have been financially viable, was to make it into two movies or even a trilogy. The story of Napoleon has clearly got too many big events with detail that needs to be included to chain the thing together. Borodino, Austerlitz, these battles could both last 30 minutes easy in the re-telling.

Right after I finished watching this, I was thinking a 10 part HBO miniseries could have been amazing.
I think that this movie, no matter which direction they would take or what they would decide to do, had no hope whatsoever just because Ridley Scott was in charge.
He is the first, second and third problem with this movie. Never had a chance.
This is the only idea that makes sense literally a trilogy or two parter

А Россия всегда была при Романовых (кроме Петра и Павла) английской собакой.
Куда входил Наполеон там отменялось крепостное право.
Наполеон великий военноначальник и тактик Но в плане тыла и обеспечения тупой баран , придти в Россию по форме 4 воевать ,мог только дегенерат . 8 сентября ,после продолжительных ливней уже срывался первый снег в пиджочках зимой много не навоюешь .
Бородино показало ,что наши противопоставить в плане боя ни чего не могут, французы не введя элиту в бой потеряли в три раза меньше убитыми ,чем наши обороняющиеся войска ( позорище).
И стоит отметить что когда наши войска пришли в Париж то по самым скромным подсчётам 20 тыс ,а в реальности более 40 тыс. так и осталось в нём ( увидав , что общество там свободное от рабства солдаты начали прибиваться в французкие семьи ) ) и поэтому нужно было срочно сниматься с якоря и валить домой. Этот поход и открыл глаза многим ,что вылилось позже в выступление ДЕКАБРИСТОВ.
И не нужно сравнивать рабство над своим народом в РФ и то что было в некоторых странах Европы.
Русских русские продавали и использовали как скот .Создавали гаремы (Троекуров в Дубровском у Пушкина), убивали травили собаками .Доводили до самоубийства .(Салтыков -Щедрин ""Миша и Ваня).
Рабство было на Руси отменено наравне с неграми США и то после позорнейшей крымской компании ,когда передовые страны в которых не было рабства пришли учить деградированного соседа. на паровых крейсерах с нарезными пушками и нарезными винтовками у матросов ,а их вышел встречать самый тупой и дегенеративный из Романовых коля Палкин на Петровских парусниках с гладкоствольной артиллерией и гладкоствольными ружьями у матросов (раб не создаст паровую машину) .и хватило ума самим затопить этот морально устаревший флот. А дальше было избиение младенцев ,Нарезные пушки перебивая береговую артиллерию ( позорище!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) сравняли Севастополь ,А англо французкие солдаты расстреливали русских солдат идущих в штыковой бой за 300 шагов как они это делали в Африке с племенами .Больно читать дневники участников тех событий.

On December 5, 1812, Napoleon left the remnants of his army to freeze in Russia and fled to Paris.
In the spring of 1814, the Russian army was already in Paris. Napoleon abdicated the throne.
It was not the Russians who entered Paris but all of Europe, supported by British gold.
The Russians alone never defeated Napoleon. Borodino is a French victory: the Russian losses were much higher than the French, and with the retreat of the Russian army in the night that followed the battle, the doors of Moscow were wide open to the French.
Balance sheet:
huge losses
Abandonment of the battlefield
Moscow open city
= how to interpret history to make it a victory?
@@mlipeck Territory was not important to Russia. They treated it like the Navy treats water.
@@mlipeck Actually in Wiki they said that: "The French lost about roughly the same number of soldiers as Russia". It seems correct estimation because if the victory of France was so undisputable why Napoleon later on could not win in Maloyaroslavets and had to return via the same devastated region (Smolensk). So your opinion about the huge Russian losses is not correct.
uh no he didnt flee to paris. he continued to fight in battles quoted by wellington as showing his true genius, and most of the fighting was between him prussia and austria
@@Vlad-sv8tz Strange, We don’t have the same wiki ...

Battle of Borodino
French Commanders:
Napoleon I
Louis Nicolas Davout
Michel Ney
Eugène de Beauharnais
Joachim Murat
Russian Commanders:
Mikhail Kutuzov
Piotr Ivanovitch Bagration †
Michel Barclay de Tolly
French forces in presence
130,000 men including:
102,000 infantrymen
28,000 horsemen
587 guns
Russian forces present
138,000 men including:
110,000 infantrymen
9,000 Cossacks
19,000 militias
624 guns
French losses:
28,000 dead or injured
13 guns captured
Russian losses:
45,000 dead or injured
100 to 200 prisoners
15 - 60 guns captured
We notice that the French and allied forces were a little less numerous than the Russians.
About the Battle of Maloïaroslavets:
It took place on 24 October 1812 during the War of the Sixth Coalition, during the Russian Campaign, between the vanguard of the Grande Armée, commanded by Eugène de Beauharnais, and the forces of Alexander I. The Franco-Italian troops could not break through to the south, forcing Napoleon to evacuate Russia by the road already followed on the way, by a devastated region and lacking provisions, turning Russia’s retreat into a disaster.
French Commanders:
Eugène de Beauharnais
Napoleon Bonaparte
Alexis Joseph Delzons †
Russian Commander:
Dmitri Dokhturov
Presence forces:
15,000 French and Italian against 20,000 Russians
Fatalities:
5000 killed or wounded French, 6000 killed or wounded Russian
We see that this battle had fatal consequences for Napoleon, but on the purely military level it cannot be compared to the battle of Borodino, and cannot represent either the demonstration of a military superiority of the Russians.
The Russians never decisively defeated Napoleon:
Austerlitz victory of Napoleon
Eylau victory of Napoleon
Friedland victory of Napoleon
Borodino victory of Napoleon.
Even the passage of the Berezina can be considered as a demonstration of Napoleon’s military genius.
The Russians thought it was time to strike the blow and capture Napoleon. He escaped them with his Imperial Guard by making absolutely remarkable arrangements.
After the disastrous retreat of Russia Napoleon managed to reassemble an army with which he would fight against the whole of Europe coalition for 1.5 years, with many victories that forced the admiration of his opponents.
Its final defeat is due to numbers. And the Russian presence in Paris was only possible thanks to the uprising of an entire continent.
Without the coalition of all European forces the Russians would never have succeeded.
But all this does not detract from the Great Russian Patriotic Spirit who has shown on many occasions his strength and determination.
But Napoleon is above men. He is one of those geniuses who transcend human history. His work is not only military. Its Civil Code has served as a model for more than 80 countries around the world! The list of all his work would be too long ...

My 4x great-grandfather served as a soldier in the Württemberg regiments with the Grande Armée in Moscow. He survived as one of the few from his regiment and walked the entire way back to Poland on foot. Due to severe frostbite on his feet and hands, which had cost him half of his feet and several fingertips in the harsh Russian winter, he had to use crutches for the rest of his life. From the infirmary in Poland, he wrote to his father in the Black Forest - detailing the incredible cruelties he experienced and witnessed, as all his comrades perished, succumbing to wounds, cold, hunger, diseases, and even wild animals. With his last ounce of strength, wounded and mentally scarred, he managed to make it back into the French sphere of influence - and there, on the sickbed, he married the camp follower who had accompanied him and refused to abandon him - my great-great-great-great-grandmother. Such a story is worth telling, not just the tale of the megalomaniac monarch who callously sacrificed hundreds of thousands for his ambitions.

My great-great...grandfather served as a conscript in the 37th infantry regiment, he was also part of the Russian invasion. He got left behind in mid-august 1812 in present-day Belarus (around the city of Polotsk). What happened to him is unclear, but he made it back to his hometown a few years later, but he had lost the use of his left hand. In 1858 he was awarded the Saint-Helena medal
He was captured. He was lucky. There was a film about how a Frenchman was captured by the peasants.
My ancestor was French) He was captured by the Cossacks who were covering the retreat of the Russian army to Moscow. He remained with them until the end of the war, then went to join the regiment in Kuban. He took a local wife and had many children. Later he took part in wars for the Kuban Cossacks.

Napoleon lost most of his army already in summer before the Borodino battle in September. Only 20% of his army survived till winter.
True. Most of his army died because the supply lines were overextended, not because of the Russian winter. Invading Russia was a disaster from the start.
A huge part of his army ( not the French but the troops from the other European countries he recruited) actually deserted during the end of summer/beginning of fall.
They realized that this campaign was doomed and got the hell out of Russia.
But Napoleon in his hybris & arrogance, though himself invincible and his French troops still followed him without question.
Смоленская битва похоронила надежду Наполеона разбить русскую армию по частям в 16-19 Августа 1812 г.
Барклаю де Толли и Багратиону угрожали разгром поодиночке. Они отступали, ведя ожесточённые арьергардные бои. Советники Александр предлагали отвести 1-ю Западную армию к лагерю близ Дриссы и принять главный удар Наполеона, а 2-я армия атаковала бы фланги и тылы врага. Но отказались в самый последний момент от плана, убедившись в правильности позиций и численном превосходстве французов. Прорыв Багратиона через Могилёв не удался. Армии успели соединиться лишь под Смоленском. Войско Наполеона растянулось, но попытка русского контрнаступления провалилась. Неверовскому удалось сдержать авангард Мюрата. Русские части укрепились в Смоленске, но не чтобы отстоять его, а для того, чтобы задержать неприятеля и переправить армию через Днепр. Им это удалось. Наполеон достался сгоревший город. Его армия уходила всё дальше от провиантских баз и растягивала коммуникации, а русская, несмотря на тяжелейшие удары, оставалась боеспособной.
Почему Наполеон шёл на Москву, если столица была в Петербурге?
Он гнался за русской армией, а та отступала к Москве.
Барклай де Толли пошёл на соединение с Багратионом, а дорогу на Петербург закрыл, оставив 1-й корпус Витгенштейна. Прикрывая свой левый фланг, Наполеон направил против Витгенштейна корпус Удино. Гусары Кульнева застигли врага на марше и атаковали. Французы были вынуждены остановиться в Клястицах.
Не позволяя противнику сосредоточить силы, Вингенштейн развил наступление. Артиллерия Удино оказалось бессильна перед Павловскими гренадёрами, провавшимися по горящему мосту, и конницей, форсировавшей реку вброд. Удино отступал к Полоцку.
Для его усиления Наполеон направил корпус Сен-Сира.
Витгенштейн надёжно прикрыл Санкт-Петербург, сковал значительные силы французов и не позволил им принять участие в Бородинском сражении.
Победа русских под Клястицами стала одной из первых в войне 1812 года.
Thi si Hollywood's version. In real life they would have been tattered and straggling.
Should have been a 3 part movie series broken up as follows:
Movie 1. "Rise of the Corsican Eagle" - Covers Napoleon's early life, military education, and rise to prominence, focusing on events up to and including the Italian Campaign (1769-1799).
Movie 2. "Emperor of Europe" - Explores Napoleon's rule as First Consul, his coronation as Emperor, and major military campaigns, including Austerlitz and the Peninsular War (1800-1812).
Movie 3. "Fall of the Eagle" - Chronicles Napoleon's downfall, from the Russian Campaign to the Battle of Waterloo, his exile to Elba, return to power, and ultimate defeat at Waterloo, leading to his exile on Saint Helena (1812-1821).
Each film would need at least 2hrs 15mins.
Agree! 👍🏼
I suggest looking up (if you already haven't) the four part Napoleon documentaries on the UA-cam channel People's Profiles
And they would've made more money. More story telling time, more detail and more films! More people taking an interest in history!

Есть французский 4-х серийный фильм Наполеон, 2002 года, режиссёра Ив Симоно. Во первых он французский, там говорят по французски, это важно. Французы говорящие на английском как то не то. Хотя у нас в дубляже не слышно, но это не главное. Тот идёт аж 6 часов и то все показано не полностью. Актёрский состав великолепный. Там и Джон Малкович и Жерар Депардье. Посмотрите не пожалеете.
Спасибо за совет, начал просмотр - Клавье, конечно, потрясающий и харизматичный актёр, мне кажется более убедительным в роли Наполеона (вообще его только по комедийным ролям знал). Не в обиду Фениксу - он тоже талантливый актёр, но, видимо, сам фильм (режиссура + сценарий) слабый.

It was necessary to save the army of Russia. Napoleon did not even think about how to protect his empire. It was a defeat.
Napo was scared to retreat oyver the same land he ravaged for supplies on the advance to Moscow. He was probably correct, but somehow, the French didn't have maps? ot a route to the South. In the end he had to run back the road they knew.
It's a mis-statement that Napo lost 500,000 men. He only fielded 200,000+ at Borodino. All the other units where guarding the flanks. Flanks that were 800 miles long, EACH.
There are a lot of war diaries online that describe the actions on the flanks. Dialy harrassments.

I understand the political part and relationship, but felt like we got too much of that and too little of what people truly remember Napoleon by: An Emperor of the French Revolution.
Not sure why they didn't show more of Borodino, it was one of the most important battles for Napoleon and a pretty cool one too... just imagine the close-up shots of the clouded by explosions battlefield, lots of burning fortifications, assaults on artillery batteries, hills covered by corpses, grape shots turning formations into red mist, scenes of cavalry raids from the flanks (and not head on bs). Could have been so beautiful.
The other thing is like... movie didn't even briefly show what happened *after* Moscow was set on fire, which is important. Made it look like it was just winter, but in reality, Russian Empire's army made a huge manover and cut off Napoleon's army that was retreating out of the city, which forced him to leave a lot of resources behind in not organized manner, take unfavorable fights, send men for certain death just to win some time while they were crossing cold rivers, eat horses and etc. it was a brutal, desperate, bloodiest fucking chase.
The same reason why Stanley Kubrick messed up the Seven Years War in Barry Lyndon, which remains a far better film compared to this joke.

Napoleon self-destructed in Russia; during the invasion of 1812, he was still undefeated, he could legitimately believe himself invested by "fortune". Like a demigod, nothing could defeat him, except himself. Without Russia its defeat of 1814 is impossible. He would have remained on the throne for 30 more years.
Truth be told he was defeated in Russia 🇷🇺 ,he went to Russian with 600,000 men and returned with only 40,000 ,560,000 men loosed their lives that shit is crazy !!
@@jermainemyles1825 It's the untold deaths that really baffles the mind. During his attack and retreat both sides from Russia to western Europe used none stop scorched earth tactics.
The troops might as well of all stayed home and just starved their own populations.
The warfare was mass murder. The tactics were mass murder.
Culling peasants . That's all it ever was, ww1 and 2 were no different.
Mass culls of peasants.
@@jermainemyles1825 All of his defeats from 1813-1815 occurred because he himself scuttled his Grande Armée and had only inexperienced teenagers left to enlist. Without 1812, the Bonapartes would still reign over a large part of Europe today.
Победа в войне 1812 года - заслуга не только генералов и солдат, но и организованной системы снабжения. Её возглавлял Егор Канкрит, генерал-интендант 1-й Западной армии.
План обеспечения армии продовольствием, фуражом и снаряжением составляли заранее. По направлению к западной границе были построены военные дороги, склады - >, укомплектованы части для их охраны и сопровождения обозов. Это помогло на первом этапе. Чтобы избежать грабежей, реквизиции у местных жителей проводились под расписку. Впоследствии казна приняла их в счёт налогов.
Губернии жертвовали деньги, транспорт, продукты. Так, Псковская губерния оказала помощь воюющему на её территории корпусу Витгенштейна на 14 млн рублей. Тяжёлую зиму 12 года армии помогло пережить снабжение из южных аграрных губерний. Канкрину даже удалось сэкономить: из выделенных на войну 426 мил было потрачено около 400.
Почему из-за санкций на территории Казахстана запрещено смотреть фильм про Наполеона. Мне очень интересно. В какой стране я мог бы посмотреть фильм про Наполеона. Я бы купил билеты в эту страну. Во всех странах Азии запретили показывать фильм про Наполеона. Это национальное достояние всей Западной Европы. Запретить.

Наполеон начал военную службу как артиллерист. Он считал: > и не раз доказывал это.
Нельзя было отставать и России. Да! Да! Накануне войны 1813 года русская артиллерия стала одной из самых передовых в Европе - благодаря успешной реформы. Удалось добиться единообразного вооружения армии, ввели стандарт на производство оружия и материальной части, орудийные команды начали готовить по единой системе. Скорострельность была в 2 раза выше, чем у французов: от установки оружия до самого выстрела проходило не более 30 секунд. Тактика артиллерии в атаке: дуэль с батареями противника, чтобы не дать обстреливать наступающие войска. В обороне главные цели - атакующая пехота и кавалерия врага. Пешая артиллерия - батарейная и линейная - поддерживала пехоту. Конная - могла определить помочь кавалерии.
Модернизированная артиллерия стала грозной силой - настоящим > Война - это в первую очередь наука. Умереть на войне много ума не надо. Храбрости недостаточно. Побеждает тот кто лучше учился.

I dont think we will see better movie version about Borodino battle that this in our life time.
@@claremontcowboy7409 a charcuterie study about the greatest tactical commander of modern history. Yet they don’t show any of his tactics. Neither in this battle nor any others.

A complete skip over of Talleyrand. And the whole Josephine story was overblown. And you swoop as low as to call somone names as a point of argument. If anyone is the fool it’s you my friend.
When crossing the Berezina, the air temperature fluctuated around 0 Celsius. This is an indisputable fact, given that the river has not frozen, or rather, the ice has not yet been so strong that it can be moved on foot and, moreover, on horseback. Because of this, the French were forced to build crossings. So what kind of severe frosts can we talk about? Russian Russian command's more competent strategy, combined with the extremely high morale of the Russian army, was not the weather, but the main reason for Napoleon's defeat in Russia. When the war becomes a Patriotic war for Russians, it is impossible to defeat us. I hope that everyone who wants to invade Russia will remember this.

And you dont comment on history when you dont read history.
Napolean incaded russia in june of 1812, genius. By august he was already settled in smolensk some 200 mi from moscow.
Even when he occupied moscow the weatherwas reported as being mild.
What you and ridley scott dont seem to get is that it was the RUSSIAN RESPONSE that kicked napoleans ass. Not the weather.
Even if we backtrack to the battle of the pyramids, weather was ALWAYS an issue with the french army. Napolean lost more men to heat and desert than he did to the ottoman army.
And yet we dont mention weather here. Why!? Because the ottoman army of 40000 strong lost to napoleon army of 10000 max (not even bc he split his 10 in half to to fight the british at acre)
So again. What shouldve been underscored was the russian military attacking all of his supply depots, cutting off his LOC. and then using cossacks to trail his exhausted men. They also used effective scorch earth tactics that forced his army to move without food or sleep. Thats why he lost.
The winter was simply a backdrop.
lost most of his troops to typhus, and logistical issues in the summer.
@@MrEvldreamr No one will give Russia credit for anything. Napoleon simply lost to the Weather and Hitler lost to the weather and "human wave" tactics at Stalingrad. I'm sure it's argued somewhere in the history books that the Mongols simply disbanded too.
@@themarketm8382 I mean Russia is never really seen as tactical geniuses for many reasons:
1) In most fights Russia has won they lost more men than their opps, kinda using men as meat shield, if they were tactical geniuses wouldn't have lost more men with a bigger army.
2) Most invaders fought Russians just fine in summers, they were always fucked in the winters, the armies were weak, low supply and low morale before any battle just from weather, weather killed lots of their men.
so it is safe to say while Russia did have strong and big army, their advantage was weather and sometimes abundance of men not really tactics and strategies.
The invasion of the "twenty languages" is called Napoleon's attack on Russia in 1812. This war got its name because the so-called Napoleonic "Great Army" included all European nations. and there is nothing to be surprised about the peoples in the war, who also inhabit Russia.They fought for their land.
You do not know that those 20 nations sent him to get rid of him!!! And you are so deceived that do not ask how it was that those who supported him with weaponry fought him afterward!! They have fooled you!!!
If only Kubrick had been in charge.
I cheer every time I see Napoleon shout "See ya in the afterlife, Bagman!" as he strafes the Soviets with his F14 Tomcat. Such a historically accurate classic!

No, the Russians lost all their battles to the French and lost their army due to Winter! And the Nomads in Russia, dozens of nations, they defeat and the Russians piss on themselves
Damn, Napoleon's English is pretty good.
It's made primarily for an American audience. They aren't going to have him speaking French because then no one would see it, and having him speak English with a phony French accent would have been stupid. He wasn't even a native French speaker anyway. He was Corsican, so his native language was Italian. He always spoke French with an Italian accent, which really would have confused audiences.

Visually this all looks fantastic, of course, I would expect no less from Ridley Scott, but from the few short scenes with Juaquin, I have to wonder what the hell he was thinking with his characterization of Napolean. I had the impression the man was stoic, a stalwart individual, not one prone to stuffing his head into his bicorn and having a tantrum. Correct me if I am wrong.
its a terrible depiction poor inaccurate battle scenes very poor form Mr Scott
You're not wrong. I'm not sure what Putin paid Ridley Scott to tarnish his reputation and turn this into a cheap Russian hate-flick but... damn....

Ridley Scott managed to ruin his prestiged career in just a single film.

First, Ridley Scott has weirdly some soft spot for fighting in the woods - it is in all his movies. Second, he has no idea how battles where fought in Napoleon times . Infantry did not run into battle breaking the lines and order, it was unthinkable. It marched slowly in even formations back and forth, but to film that, you need to train participants to do that, a lot of work and research
You’re describing textbook infantry. Battles don’t always go according to textbook. Soldiers are not textbook trained to never falter all the time in history.
