Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom

On one hand, not as bad as people who only rate it low due its provocative nature but also not really that smart like a lot of others let you think.

If anything its infamous nature is more interesting when you haven't seen the film. In some parts, its timeless but in some parts its cartoonishly dull and hillarious predictable. Outside of edge lords, I get why this has its fans but to me, its a run of the mill film.
Sure its provocative but like, thats it a lot of the times. Its themes and small narrative and exploration of fascism linked to sexuality but also how it easily corrupts and controls people goes one way and one way only which seems very boring to me and it doesn't help that sometimes, it just points certain things out with its dialogue.

Its not really smart or dumb, its just whatever. I get why this is available on 2 porn sites and also not really (considering the teen aspect of the film) but it also just shows the corruption of pornography.
