Was Caligula a good movie?

It is interesting in a way, more from a film history kind of way.  This is a looong movie, and there are lots of body parts flying around everywhere.  I can see this causing a ruckus at the time amongst those who wanted to cause a ruckus about it, telling anyone who would listen that this would cause the downfall of society (how right they were).  There is actually some very graphic sex involved.  Close up dicks and boobs and girly bits.  There were hairy armpits amongst some of the ladies.  Winter bush everywhere.

It gets to be a bit overmuch, scenes are drawn out way more than they need to be.  There is some level of gratuity involved.  It looks like it would be a lot of fun to be emperor.  Absolute power looks like it would be corrupting in the wrong hands.  It would have been strange being on the set.  There really is a lot of graphic oral sex, that seems to be a favorite of the directors/writers.

It looks like a big screw-you to the entrenched film industry, at least in part.

That is about as I remember it.
