A waste. I appreciate the darker story tone that <em>'Napoleon and Samantha'</em> attempts to provide, sadly none of it really sticks and it comes out as a slow paced, dull would-be adventure. The cast features two very familiar names - Michael Douglas and Jodie Foster. The latter doesn't have much to do, while Douglas plays an oddly written character. Johnny Whitaker, fresh off the lovely <em>'The Biscuit Eater'</em>, is alright. Will Geer's role has a lot of heart, if not much else. They try to cram so many different elements into this, to the point it feels overcrowded and unrefined. There's a lion in the film, for practically no reason whatsoever. As well as unexplored plot lines and characters. Without wanting to give anything away, it's all very uneven. A cool and intriguing concept, just not fulfilled one bit. Disappointing.
