“With a larger canvas, stretched over 10 hours, there’s every chance Cronenberg could have explored this dark and profound territory in more depth. But with only two skittish hours at his disposal, the director barely cracks the topsoil.” –

Caligula: The Ultimate Cut (2023)

“The sheer amount of blood and clothes being shed through the film’s three-hour runtime has a numbing effect that dulls the impact of the nuanced performance by Mirren as Caligula’s scheming wife... and the strong set pieces scattered among the carnage.” –
