JUST A GREAT MOVIE THAT TOLD A MESSAGE OF ITS TIME

Kubrick is my favorite director, and I think this is his greatest, of so many, ahcievements. Malcolm McDowell as Alex is a perfect match. The opening scene is genius, topped only by the concluding scene with the final seconds of “Ludwig van’s” 9th symphony. And then, my favorite quote ever: “I was cured all right”. Brilliance. Beethoven and “Singing in the Rain” will never be the same for anybody after seeing this masterpiece. Kubrick’s philosophy: “One person writes a novel, one person writes a symphony, one person should make a movie”. Clockwork Orange fits this philosophy, being based on a novel and using Beethoven in a most violent way. The movie is timeless, controversial, bizarre. It is simply outstanding. The best in American Film.

Stanley Kubrick’s best in my opinion. Fascinating throughout. The futuristic scenes are beautifully shot and the interesting characters (especially the young Alex) draw you in and keep you enthralled for the entirety of the film.

Best cinematography ever captured on film.

The most beautiful cinematography ever captured on film. Nobody shot a frame a film like Stanley Kubrick did.

It’s hard to pick my favorite. Most of my favorites have already been mentioned by other people on this page, but I think that I’d rather mention A Clockwork Orange as one of my favorites. The movie depicts what it needs to from the book. Although the ending is left out, it still gets to the message about Alex and society. The movie has this profound artistic visual. It’s so well put together and acted that the viewer (or at least I did) feel absolutely terrified of the rape scene. It’s one of those movies that should not be ignored and the book is fantastic as well. Probably not my #1 favorite, but it’s at least on my top 15. Like I have said, I find ithard to pick the very best and who is not it…lol.

I think that A Clockwork Orange is the most picturesque movie I’ve ever seen. It gives off so much energy, adrenaline and glamour. Is obsessing, thrilling, brainwashing, convincing, bizzare, harsh and you can’t compare it with any other movie from this category. It totally different. Above all, all the technical elements are very well combined: the music, the costumes, the montage, the image, the backgrounds…
Malcolm McDowell plays terrific… I really can’t understand why he wasn’t nominated for Oscars… He definetly deserved that.
About Kubrick… he is a master! He proved again what art means…

I’ll definetly go for it. Is the most fulminant piece of cinema I’ve ever seen. Is full of energy and originality. Also, it perfectly combines different faces of art. You can see it 30 times and not get bored at all… Is a lot to talk about ACO. The point is that it made history.

Kubrick’s movie is a real masterpiece!

First of all is very original and is brilliantly done: the image, the costumes, the MUSIC, the montage… all the technical elements are incredible.
The actor Malcolm McDowell is charming. He plays with so much passion, he fits so great on the character, that he makes you being
fascinated by Alex De Large… He can become obsessing…
The action is so vivid, energic, powerfull that makes your blood run faster trough your veins. It gives you a lot of adrenaline just looking at it…
Is amusing, thrilling, brainwashing, obsessing, counterculture, artistic, dynamic, political. It has all the elements for being the finest piece of cinema ever made…
Also, A Clockwork Orange imposed new fashions and influenced a lot of generations of teenagers…
What can I say more… This movie is a real recipe of art.

Highly controversial when originally released in 1971, A Clockwork Orange is most definitely Film genius Stanley Kubrick’s greatest work. The film shadows around a great plot which is this: A young teenaged gang member (droog) in futuristic Britain goes about at night raping, beating mugging, etc. with his other uniformed friends until he is turned in for the accidental killing of a woman. In jail he hears about a special treatment that can get anyone out of prison fast. Her tries it out and it turns out that the treatment is where Alex (the main character), must sit strapped into a chair and be forced to watch explicit films focusing on extreme sex and violence.

A Clockwork Orange has been overlooked many times in the past. This movie, directed by a film genius, is one of only a few that have made my perspective on movies change. The storyline had me sitting through this with a huge smile on my face. The music, charcters, and language really kept me in awe. If a 24hr marathon was on of just this movie, I would watch it without a moments thought. It is the best movie that has ever been made.

If you are a fan of Kubrick, from Dr. Strangelove, 2001, Clockwork, and The Shining, then you are familiar with his film making technique. Clockwork Orange is one movie I have seen too many times to remember, and I never tire of this classic. Who else but Malcolm McDowell could have played the role of Alex? The movie just has a feel to it that says to me, watch me over and over again, you may have missed something the first or second time.

I think a clockwork orange is the greatest movie I never seen before. It is timeless for everyone except the actor’s hair reveals the year of the movie secret.

No one is able to deny the timeless effects of a clockwork orange. Many people see it and doubt that it is made in 1971. Only this reason - I choose a clockwork orange is my favourite movie.

It changed the way I look at films. Seen more times then I can count and will never tire of it. Nothing like it has ever and probably will never be made again. Stanley Kubrick was a director who’s work stands alone and this is his masterpiece

In my opinion, Clockwork Orange represents the epitome of intelligent film making. Here’s a movie that pushes the envelope further and more furiously than any other; a film that has absolutely no regard for trivial Hollywood standards and obligatory nonsenses; a film that is so unique and so artistic that it makes a Kandinsky painting look coherent. However, it’s a beautiful film for the same reason that the Kandinsky is beautiful, and it really can be considered nothing short of a cinematic masterpiece. From the acting to the script, from the musical score to the cinematography, from the directing to the set design, Clockwork Orange is very nearly flawless in every conceivable facet, and it watches better than a good book reads or a great symphony hears. Clockwork Orange is not only my favourite movie, but I do sincerely believe that it is the best movie yet made.

A combination of elements that culminate in an example of the realization of all that the medium of film can be.

This movie has everything: interesting costumes, beautifully shot, music that fuses the old (Beethoven) with the new (synthesizers), a script that does the same (the language of Shakespeare, combined with invented slang), ideas of philosophy (to what lengths should man go to eliminated evil from society), sex, violence, action, drama. It provokes thought, repels, and intruiges. The script is enthralling, the performances are riveting. The film is an example of everything that movies can be.

I just recently rented and hope to purchase this movie soon enough. I found it to be so brilliantly made and intriguing. It gained quite a bit of controversy when it was first released and I can see why, but still the movie is regarded as a classic.

It is meaningful to me, because of its twisted, but brilliant plot line and intense direction by one of the greatest, Stanley Kubrick.

Should freedom to choose be restricted in an ultra-violent world?

It is a great moral story on freedom to choose between right and wrong and why we should never be prevented from the ability to make our choices. Kubrick is a superb director and Malcolm McDowell gives the performance of his career.
