Imperial

At dawn, a cannon rips through the plain. The horses tread the beaten ground at a gallop. Eva, 21, wishes to join the hunters of the imperial guard, a regiment of historical reconstruction Napoleonic reserved for men. In search of romance, she conceals her identity to be able to set foot in the stirrup, defying a 200-year-old ban. In this world of powder and smoke, Eva discovers herself as she has always dreamed of: a handsome soldier alongside of a beautiful princess.
Reviews
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
