It's pretty rare that I disagree with the whole crew. But I might be in the minority by loving Napoleon. I went in with zero expectations, I saw maybe one trailer, and I wasn't concerned about historical accuracy. By the end I had laughed a lot and just adored Phoenix's performance. I really feel like if they had gone for more historical accuracy, this would have been extremely boring. By the end I just felt like they went for a take of a ridiculous man who became way more powerful than he should have.

Jeff should just review movies with noises like he did with Fargo season 3 and 4.
