I love this movie. This, besides 2001, Dr. Strangelove and Lolita, is one of the best movies that Stanley Kubrick directed.

One of Kubrick's best films. It examines the issue of whether you can rehabilitate a violent criminal. The story is delivered in a satirical dramatic way that is very funny and imaginative. It's also very violent and not for everyone. Alex is naughty, naughty! Long live Ludwig Van...

Even though many of the words made me gulliver go in to action, I was worth every second. The more I think of it the more I love it. I want to read the book but the book has a glossary of about 50-80 pages. Though this movie is a beautiful lesson to teach everyone (that has a strong stomach that is)

I think this is the best film ever made because the film perfectly criticize all the systeme politics and alex is the symbol which the system want the criminals to transform and the film show ironicly all the absurdity and comedy of the treatments which the gouvernement apply for make normal the criminals. So 1 think everybody must see this movie...

Oh my brothers, this film is nothing more then gorgeousness and gorgeosity made flesh. Oh it is wonder of wonders. A bird of like rarest spun heavenmetal, or like silvery wine flowing in a spaceship, gravity all nonsense now. Oh, my brothers, it is like an azure sky of deepest summer. And if love it you do, read the novella by Anthony Burgess you must. That, my brothers, is the true like work of art.

I saw a clockwork orange more than twenty times. Malcolm Mcdowell's performance is the top of the world.

Music For Queen Mary - A Celebration Of The Life And Death Of Queen Mary could have been the not so short subtitle for this movie. It portrays the death of british society and the birth of the hard punk movement. A visionary tale. Unfortunately a strong message taken at face value buy too many young ''gangsters'' in the seventies and today. Exceptional photography and score. As usual..

This is perhaps the greatest film ever made. A superlative piece of storytelling and originality, A Clockwork Orange tries to teach as much as entertain. Those who watch this for sheer entertainment will enjoy it, but those who understand the deeper meaning here will cherish it. A Clockwork Orange is set in a future not much unlike our own. People are the same, just the symbols are different. Deviants now hang out at milk bars and listen to opera music. OUr hero is a deviant who gets caught and is used as an experiment. He is made to get sick at the sight or thought of violence, and everything associated with it. He comes out a changed and weak person. He is now the victim of the people he victimised. And so the story continues. The greatest thing about this movie is how it eliminates good and bad and concentrates on the human. As humans, we are all nice. Nice but weak. We can only prosper if we become rigid. This lesson is learned through the protagonist, who, at the end of the movie, figures out how easy it is to just take advantage of everyone. This is such a beautiful film. It is also disturbing at times. Who is right? Perhaps the person who is honest is right. And if the protagonist is narrating the truth to us, then evil is needed in order to combat evil. Maybe to evils make a good. See this masterpiece, and you too will have all these beautiful and fascinating questions about human nature that cannot possibly be fully explained. Enjoy.

Viddy well brothers, viddy well!!! The greatest film of all times... No film in history has had such a transcending effect on the film medium and art as a whole. To display with such vivid accuracy our twisted and corrupted world, as much as this brilliant and prophetic masterpiece achieves in doing, is nothing less than a triumph. Stanley Kubrick was, is and will always remain, in my very humble opinion, god.

Real "horror show". I preferred the book myself where my slow moving brain could process the message, part of which is that when we're young we tend to be violent and most of us grow out of it. Also rehabilitation at the expense of the sould is wrong. I didn't get the message so much from the film, but McDowell was spectacular as the main character.

Alex in "A Clockwork Orange" is Kubrick's most evil creation. He even dreams about torturing and crucifying Christ, he hates people so much. And yet he is the slave of a government that can abolish crime using psychological conditioning methods. In this movie Kubrick tells us modern art and cultural values are dead or dying, as well as any religious belief that would support a system of moral behavior based on free will. This is not futuristic science fiction or anti-utopia, it's absolute film noir. So extreme that it made the writer of the novel it is based on, author Anthony Burgess, complain about its "negativity.".

I saw this movie when it first came out in 1971. It was a first date, and a pretty horrible one at that! Frightening, and always gives me bad vibes when I even see the title.

This is really an overrated, overhyped movie. I thought it was supposed to be an all time classic but man was I wrong! I have never seen anything more boring and pointless in my entire life. This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Please stop this silly hype, this movie suxx.

"A Clockwork Orange" is an amazingly diviant and twisted movie, yet a definite must see if you are a Stanley Kubrick fan. The classical music adds such a different dimension to the entire setting. The use of language and the startling images remain with you for a long time. A movie that I myself have to own, because of the twisted controversy. A movie I will watch again and again.

THE BEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME period!!! I've seen it over 100 times and I've read the book over 10 times and this movie still amaze me!!! Malcom McLaren as Alex is the best acting I've seen in my life. Ultraviolence and Beethoven!!! Yeah, but not free violence, no everything in this movie has a purpose. I'd give this movie a million/10 if I could!!!

A cinematic benchmark masterpiece - by the benchmark master, Stanley Kubrick. I saw it first in 1971 and perhaps 3 times since. One of my all-time favourites.

I just had to write a review. Ive seen this movie at least 20 times but this is my first at a theatre. Does it make a difference? Yes. The violence seems less playful. In fact, on any size TV the violence seems cartoonish. In a theatre you can almost understand why the Brits banned the movie. And they got it so wrong. This is a brilliant, and I mean brilliant, social satire. Draw whatever meaning you want: the frustration of the truly gifted in a class society; the immorality of politics; the frightening possibility of altering people to suit our proper point of view (see One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest or any eugenics ideas) I still dont know-and Ive seen the movie at least 20 times. Banning this movie almost reinforces it.

I downloaded A Clockwork Orange on the internet and thought it was a pretty good movie. It's a 1970's classic, with all the violence allowed at that time. Could have used some more graphic sex. All in all, a pretty enjoyable flick that will make you think about the violence in youth culture today, and how cool it was for the author, who was a 19th century writer, to have predicted the future so well.

A clockwork orange is a pretty amazing movie. Indeed, very well shot, with really gifted actors (Mc Dowell is terific! ). I do think that Kubrick managed one more time to point out the stupidity of men, and here, there not any single thing, any symbol which isn't set on purpose. Congratulations Sir KUBRICK!

A Clockwork Orange is one of the best films of all time. It's eye-catching, entertaining, amusing and revolting. The scenes are unforgetable and the actors are perfect for their roles. (This review was written as if there was no book. The book is, of course, better. )

"A Clockwork Orange" is simply a masterpiece. Kubrick splendidly adapts Anthony Burgess's novel. He depicts the horrorshow violence in its disturbing and repugnant form, yet allows the viewers to maintain an ironic sympathy with Alex, the young hoodlum. It is that very sympathy that the viewer is compelled to have for Alex that implicates each and every viewer in the deterioration of society that is depicted. The political commentary of the novel is not glossed over, either. (Imagine if this novel were re-adapted by today's Hollywood "auteurs". One shudders. ) Yet what is most entrancing about the film is its form--it is structured like a symphony in its narative movements. This is reflected in the film's use of music. Beethoven, of course. The music, motion, and montage create a spectacle that hearken to silent classics and which certainly beats any hyped-up made-for-soundtrack movie that is churned out for popular consumption these days. This is film as art.

Go see it if you haven't. A little reminiscent of The Sixth Sense + -. If you're too young to have seen it the first time, try to go see it. Not too many movies are this well made anymore...

A hypnotic cult movie, A Clocwork Orange is THE movie. A frightening vision of a near future, this movie is the best of visionnary filmmaker Stanley Kubrick. An extremely realistic cinematography with Kubrick's usual and always beautiful stylish signature contributes to make one of the most important movies ever made. Simply the best.
