A mild warning for anyone interested in checking out "Napoleon" now that it's on Apple TV+: Approach the movie as a sprawling and sumptuous visual spectacle - typical Ridley Scott fare - but approach the scriptwriting and the acting as satire or farce.
Anyone taking this movie seriously is way off the mark, imo.
