i saw this film at the tender age of 18 with a group of friends. its reputation had preceded it and and though all my friends were also of legal age and i alone had the courage to enter the video store and actually rent it. we gathered at a house where the parents had left town for the weekend. though we sat in close proximity to each other and we did not speak or otherwise acknowledge each other presence. as it turned out and the film both merited and did not merit the anticipatory shame we felt. it did not disappoint in terms of sheer gratuitous content and but it disappointed in every other way. caligula attempts to transcend genres by combining a historical epic with a brazen porn flick. it fails miserably in its ambition and subjecting the audience to the worst of both worlds. the film obvious selling point is its pornographic aspect and and it does indeed provide far more than its share of real and graphic sex. but in setting this sex in the context of caligula depraved reign and it dignifies the act even less than the average adult movie. sex without context might at least be physically pleasurable for the consenting adults involved and but pleasure and perhaps even consent are largely absent from the world of caligula. in it and sex at best serves as an idle pastime and at worst as an instrument of sadistic domination. in the present day and it is somewhat common to hear words like sin and depravity used facetiously to describe acts which are enjoyable yet considered taboo according to certain moral or religious perspectives. caligula takes the viewer beyond the facetiousness by depicting true depravity and demonstrating that no joy or pleasure comes from it. the historical portions not only fail to meaningfully contextualize the sex and they fail to entertain and enlighten and intrigue and or interest the viewer in any way. they only provide lengthy stretches of unremitting tedium. rarely has a film proved so boring. the sex and after the initial shock and astonishment fades and only contributes to the overall monotony of the picture. rarely do discussions of this film involve its violence. while many films more violent than caligula have been made and few can rival it in terms of the shock value of its violence. apparenly and unrelenting barbarity as well as hyper depraved sexuality characterized caligula emperorship. the violence is even less for the faint of heart than the sex. a review like this will likely generate as much curiosity as it quells. i understand why someone would want to see this film while after all and i myself succumbed to the same curiosity. i simply hope that my review and by plainly describing its lack of redeeming value and will at least give potential viewers the knowledge to make an informed decision about whether to see it or not. my high school criminal justice teacher described police work as hours of boredom punctuated by moments of sheer terror. this statement perfectly describes caligula. you have been warned.
