Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Katie Jurek Interesting and trippy movie, as well as very detailed and psychological. This movie is known for being quite violent, disturbing, and sex-filled for its time, and even for current times as well. The ending is very sudden, just like this review's.

linconjames A Clockwork Orange was controversial upon release and it still is a hard film to sit through at times, probably because the main character Alex De large commits such atrocious crimes. But much like any other Stanley Kubrick film this film has an underlying theme and message. A casual glance online will show you the many theories and analysis on the film(much like any other Kubrick film) by so many people around the world- which only proves how popular this film is. The acting is exquisite especially by Malcolm Mcdowell. The cinematography, production design and background features are top notch and as good as any Kubrick film. You can see this and form your own judgement, but chances are that you'll have something to say regardless of your opinion of the film.

kmcclearen Simply the most perfect movie ever made. I have watched ACO dozens of times and it just keeps getting better

L.D. Gerrits Stanley Kubrick's ninth film, "A Clockwork Orange," is a brilliant and dangerous work, but it is dangerous in a way that brilliant things sometimes are, because it is a movie of such manifold, contradictory effects that it can easily be seen in many ways and may well be wrongly used by a number of people who see it.Although the film, like Anthony Burgess's novel from which it is adapted, is cast as futurist fiction, it is much more a satire on contemporary society than are most futurist works, all of which, if they are worth anything, are meaningful only in terms of the society that bred them. It may even be a mistake to describe the movie "A Clockwork Orange" as futurist in any respect, since its made-up teenage language, its décor, its civil idiocies, its social chaos, or their equivalents, are already at hand, although it's still possible for most of the people to ignore a lot of them.It seems to me that by describing horror with such elegance and beauty, Kubrick has created a very disorienting but human comedy, not warm and lovable, but a terrible sum- up of where the world is at. With all of man's potential for divinity through love, through his art and his music, this is what it has somehow boiled down to: a civil population terrorized by hoodlums, disconnected porno art, quick solutions to social problems, with the only "hope" for the future in the vicious Alex.In my opinion, Kubrick has made a movie that exploits only the mystery and variety of human conduct. And because it refuses to use the emotions conventionally, demanding instead that we keep a constant, intellectual grip on things, it's a most unusual and disorienting movie experience. 10 out of 10.
