Satyricon
Film Review

I.

Satyricon is an adventure and a phantasmagoria unlike any other film (Jodorowsky's El Topo is the closest that comes to mind). The lead actor and co-star bring a (decidedly Italian) youthful vitality and intensity that helps counterbalance the decadence and decay in this portrayal of Rome as a circus that never leaves town. Definitely a view for those wanting a film with some guts to go for it on a grand scale.

4.5 / 5.0
