The Decameron Ratings & Reviews
Philadelphia Gay News
Robert Dunbar
The Decameron manages to be filthy-looking and is probably the most accurate vision of peasant life during the Renaissance period ever committed to film.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
at times it achieves nearly sublime heights (or, more accurately, lows) of grubby humor and vitality, but at other times it feels strained and slapdash
TV Guide
Pasolini departed further from the spare Neorealism of his early career and hit upon a formula that won him unanticipated commercial success.
New York Times
Vincent Canby
Marvelous.
Not Coming to a Theater Near You
Leo Goldsmith
Pasolini questions his own dream, his idealization of this beautiful, bucolic world he has created in which peasant and artist and the Virgin Mary coexist in divine harmony.
Old School Reviews
John A. Nesbit
down to earth indictment of human folly well worth checking out
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Working with an Italian classic, he seems less inclined to transform his material, though what emerges is entertaining, if only in a mild way.
