Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom | Rotten Tomatoes (2024)

Audience Reviews

Jose R "Pasolini's 'Salo' presents a challenging exploration, delving into the disturbing realm of brutal, inhumane, and depraved fascist ideologies. It traverses intense territories that may be hard to witness, necessitating a selective approach to viewing. Despite this, the film's cinematography stands out for its striking beauty. The graphic elements, both physically and emotionally demanding, deliver a potent anti-fascist commentary. 'Salo' provides a thought-provoking cinematic experience, albeit one that pushes the boundaries of discomfort." Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/15/23 Full Review David L What a gem! absolutely brilliant Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/12/23 Full Review NONBELIEVER If you're faint of heart or have a weak stomach STAY AWAY FROM THIS MOVIE!!! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/03/23 Full Review Joshua H any kind of deeper meanings salo explores is lost in it's cheer shock value, which will leave you getting awfully bored when you realize that's what it mostly is. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/03/23 Full Review David F I tried to give this film a chance but I just couldn't get into it. It is very gross, at times almost unwatchable. I had a hard time interpreting it the way the director suggests in some of the commentaries because it was just so overpoweringly disgusting in its content. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/25/23 Full Review Gary W One of the more brutal torture p*rn mainstream movies, not up there with the likes of August Underground, Bunny Game or Trauma, the Chilean 2017 film but for 1975, extremely controversial. A movie which although disgusting at times is some how a filming wonder piece. Certainly not a film for the faint hearted, extremely brutal & immersive.
