Movie Reviews of Caligula (Three-Disc Imperial Edition)
Movie Review: Please read this
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this "Imperial Edition" of Caligula to satisfy my curiosity. Sets: Good. Lighting: Moderately good. Direction: Adequate. Screenplay: Poor. Acting: Good.
Personally I found this entire production to be profoundly depressing and a waste of time to view. Also a waste of money.
I have also learned through experience that the majority of films Malcolm McDowell chooses as to appear in are/were awful, with the notable exceptions of "A Clockwork Orange" and "O, Lucky Man." He even admits this in his interviews. Be warned.
Movie Review: Caligula Special Edition
Summary: 4 Stars
I have just received this title which had been lost in the post & replaced. The 3-discs are packaged with an informative booklet which tells the sorry tale of the elements as they survive. There is an Italian version that could not be included because, it supposedly, cannot be shown outside Italy. I find this hard to believe. The picture & sound quality is very good considering the drama over this film back in time. Malcolm McDowell seems to relish this kind of material & Helen Mirren gets an early chance to ge her clothes off. There were various rated VHS version, one with a velvet cover, and a Laserdisc edition over the yearsMovie Review: Interesting and Informative Collection
Summary: 4 Stars
I was impressed with this collection. The narratives about the movie from the different actors really tell what went on behind the scenes to make this movie.Movie Review: Caligula Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
The Roman Empire history has always interested me. Even though I have never seen this movie, I thought it was pretty good. The picture was clear and crisp and very erotic for it's day. Many of the scenes were dramatic. And Helen Mirren was beautiful. I highly recommend this flick.Movie Review: Caligula
Summary: 5 Stars
Oh geez, where to begin?
It is certainly as gaudy as Cleopatra, but much much smuttier. But who are you kidding? If you want Caligula, it's not for the attention to historic detail.
To be honest, I'm still stuck on the firast disc, I haven't yet plumbed the depths of special features and whatnot.
But I can say that this has to be one of the most intriguing pieces I've seen in my short life.
And I am waiting for the 2008 remake- because that will seal the envelope and tuck it in a corner, rather than rip it to shreds...
