The husband may look like a caterpillar, but it's the wife who goes through a transformation.

RTNew York PostMay 6, 2011

"Caterpillar" is difficult to watch. But it's directed, acted and photographed well, and it's worth seeing even if it makes you uncomfortable.

Andrew O'Hehir

RTSalon.comMay 6, 2011

Blends a B-movie aesthetic, brilliant use of montage and documentary elements and a scathing critique of nationalism and militarism.

Panos Kotzathanasis

RTAsian Movie PulseApr 11, 2021

A film that goes beyond genre to emerge as a true masterpiece.
