- ZokkiieDecember 23, 2025Honestly, I didn’t even know there was a movie about Nostradamus until today. Karyo is really good in the lead role—he brings a lot of gravitas—but I’m still not sure what to make of the movie. Some parts are genuinely interesting, especially the glimpses into his visions and the historical setting, but the film overall is just too messy. It jumps around a lot, the pacing is uneven, and it tries to cover so much that it feels unfocused. Worth a watch if you’re curious, but don’t go in expecting a polished historical drama
