I heard the same thing. I went because my wife is a huge Joaquin Phoenix fan. It wasn't as bad as I expected. I guess it's good going in with low expectations. Too much of the whole Josephine love story. It was fairly historically accurate. After a lifetime of watching battle scenes, they can get boring. Very little explanation of his rise to power and fame.

Do you have any good recommendations for learning about the French Revolution? I know the basics, but I would like to go deeper.
