The best comment one can make about this film is "uninspired" if not relentlessly tedious. I'm particularly put off by the attempt to generate interest by giving top billing to Orson Welles and Eric Von Stroheim who have only minimal cameos at the end with little or no dialog. Except for Napoleon's german speaking young wife, not one character in this sleeper is even remotely interesting. At the end I only wanted to ask for my 2 hours back.
