      Thirdi A the pacing put me to sleep but theres enough material in there to make you look up from your phone. not enough to make put my phone down though Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/09/24 Full Review Lloyd S You need to be high to watch this sh*t. Full of nonsense about Nazism. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/02/24 Full Review Ken G Loved it! My kind of movie! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/24 Full Review J. A A basic, formulaic mystery thriller that dares you to fast forward through chunks of bad plot. The acting is sub par, the direction is bland. Really, the only thing that kept my interest was finding out the mystery at the end. Just watch the last 15 minutes. The rest is pretty unrealistic pablum. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/05/24 Full Review Jelisije J A movie that would have suited better as a tv series......horrible pacing with a terrible payoff that is a setup for a sequel that I dont believe will get of the ground......only positive is the beautiful setting. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review lisa g Thought it was solid suspense movie. It was great to see a movie like this come out of Iceland. In addition, it was good to see a movie where America isn't always the good guy. I hope they make a sequel. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/02/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com The Icelandic/German conspiracy thriller “Operation Napoleon” would be as comforting as its airport thriller plot if it weren’t also baggy, joyless, and spiritually depleting. Rated: 1/4 Aug 11, 2023 Full Review Michael Nordine Variety The film’s main problem... is that it has all the hallmarks of a tight 90-minute thriller, but takes its sweet time. At nearly two hours, “Operation Napoleon” feels like too little cargo packed into too big a plane. Aug 11, 2023 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Frigid B-film that has the visuals right but not the story. Rated: C+ Sep 29, 2023 Full Review Roger Salvans Fotogramas ... A thriller of classical edges with a feverish and tenacious pace, along the lines of '80s espionage intrigues that marked the end of the Cold War. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 3/5 Sep 27, 2023 Full Review Randy Meeks Espinof The characters are sketches of a hero and heroine whose actions are taken from the most boring script playbook possible... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 25, 2023 Full Review Calan Panchoo Film Threat Ultimately, Operation Napoleon is just another of a thousand other films in the adventure-conspiracy genre.
