9/10
Information warfare but with muskets - and Monica Bellucci - naked

If you are the King of France in the 18th century and your authoritarian mask is slipping, because of rumors and fake news, you are kinda in trouble. Your authority will be questioned by the peasants and the aristocracy. So, what will it be? Pitchforks and torches or poisoned wine? Your world is at stake!

What do?

Well, if you don't intend to just kill everybody, you better brush up on your Propaganda 101 and come up with a stronger narrative than your competitors.

The movie has great action scenes, great acting, great cast, great camerawork, great screenplay, great everything. One thing that stood out for me: all important characters have their own little story arcs and motivations to do what they do. No one is just evil for evilness sake.

9/10.
