Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member who'dathunk you could go 'Vietnam' with the Napoleonic wars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This film shows Hornblower's sense of honor. While this is another good addition to the Hornblower saga, it is not the best one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Another great installment in the Hornblower series. This mostly takes place in France as the Royal Navy are required to assist a doomed Royalist invasion. Their allied leader and his love for the guillotine were hardly going to inspire any local loyalty. So, more leadership challenges for our hero ensue. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Brilliant and beautiful. This whole series of films is amazing.
