Editorial Reviews

Stanley Kubrick dissects the nature of violence in this darkly ironic, near-future satire, adapted from Anthony Burgess's novel, complete with "Nadsat" slang. Classical music-loving proto-punk Alex (Malcolm McDowell) and his "Droogs" spend their nights getting high at the Korova Milkbar before embarking on "a little of the old ultraviolence," such as terrorizing a writer, Mr. Alexander (Patrick Magee), and gang raping his wife (who later dies as a result). After Alex is jailed for bludgeoning the Cat Lady (Miriam Karlin) to death with one of her phallic sculptures, Alex submits to the Ludovico behavior modification technique to earn his freedom; he's conditioned to abhor violence through watching gory movies, and even his adored Beethoven is turned against him. Returned to the world defenseless, Alex becomes the victim of his prior victims, with Mr. Alexander using Beethoven's Ninth to inflict the greatest pain of all. When society sees what the state has done to Alex, however, the politically expedient move is made.

Short review

ByMusician, Reader and Vieweron December 31, 2015

Format: Blu-rayVerified Purchase

First things first: this movie has an awesome soundtrack.

Now, I know that the movie is not technically complete because it's missing the last chapter of the book but, having that unbeknownst, I think it is important to look at the movie for what it is, as one whole.

The movie is well recorded and the blu ray disc quality is acceptable by HD standards. The film starts immediately as soon as the disc is read and bypasses the main menu. You can access the main menu for extras, subtitle options, and/or commentaries via your blu ray player's controller. I did not like this feature that much but, considering the movie is terrific, I've overlooked that.

I won't spoil the movie but I will say this: This film is not for children, and it contains nudity and violence.

I think the movie does not celebrate ultra-violence nor the old in-out in-out but rather one's ability to choose for oneself.

Thank you for reading this and have a great day.

A Clockwork Orange?

ByKindle Fire HD7 Useron January 31, 2016

Format: Blu-rayVerified Purchase

The BD I received is packaged in a metal box. The disc is possibly Region Free. I have never seen a disc with piracy warnings in so many languages. The video quality of the copy is excellent with deep brilliant colors in a variety of lighting modes used in the movie. The sound quality is clean, clear 5.1 Surround sound, English. Closed captioning is clear, sharp and mostly accurate with the spoken words. The disc has extras. One of which was an extended interview/videograghy of the leading actor. Although it was a bit long, the content of this production was informative. It was also enlightening as the actor revealed his own character and his love for performing his craft.
I only remembered the horrid violence inflicted by the main character after the first time I watched this movie. Upon viewing my purchase, the violence is still horrid. Yet amazingly it is not as gory as I find some prime time television shows of today. The "horrorshow" in this movie is the manipulation of the people by politicians. To stay in power they will deal with, absolve, elevate and use slime. The politcians are the prominent thugs. The movie worked over theme to the point I felt like a pummeled boxer. But then, some may need a message so delivered. But why "A Clockwork Orange"?
I give this production a four of five stars rating. The disc with the extras are well produced. I couldn't beat the price when I obtained it. The movie is a classic for its theme and for Malcom McDowell's chilling performance.

One of Kubrick's best....(& one of my personal all time favorite films)

ByGordon Klockon September 6, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

Not an easy movie for a lot of people at the time it came out, I even knew of a group that walked out of he theater, during an infamous scene, because they knew someone for real, who had the same psychopathic mindset as the main character "Alex", I didnt have the opportunity to tell them that this sort of human monster, is all too common throughout the history of the entire world. This movie became a 'cult' film, especially popular with the "punk rock" crowd of the late seventies,& eighties. What really makes this 'dystopian', near-future story interesting is not so much the main character, (despite his being perversely fun to watch & listen to), but the social forces surrounding him, (to which he is actually an abused pawn), & how both the "left" & "right" whilst playing each other, both play into the formation & acceleration of a dismal police state. This story asks a lot of really scary questions about security versus freedom, but has no 'answers'....

Of course the lack of shock destroys good part of the original effect of the movie

ByJoe Readeron December 9, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

I remember when I first say this movie in the theater - how I was shocked by the brutal violence and how about 10%+ of the audience walked out during the first 20 min. On watching the movie 35 years later I was now struck by how much I(we) have changed (hardened)! The violence didn't seem especially extreme - now the movie is a cult classic! Of course the lack of shock destroys good part of the original effect of the movie, [spoiler alert!!!] where "Little" Alex, everyone's thug we love to hate, becomes by the end of the movie an image of our sympathy as a victim of manipulative justice. What was once an emotional roller coaster ride, now is just an old classic. I gave it 4 stars based on my remembrances, otherwise it was more of a 3-star flick today.

This version cut one of my favorite scenes: a bunch of half-toothless 70+ year-olds drinking in a street pub listening to hardcore rock-and-roll. They were supposed to be us today! Stanley missed the great improvements in dental care.

A bit of a horror show it was.....

ByChris Siesson August 22, 2016

Format: Amazon VideoVerified Purchase

I read the book at age 15. It came with a glossary for the slang. I memorized the glossary lol. I saw the film many years later and this is my 2nd viewing. As with most genuine classics the book is better and should be read 1st. However the film is great and matches the book very closely. At the time I read it I interpreted the book as futuristic. I had never heard of "Aversion Therapy" at 15. Later this "Therapy" was in wide use for smoking and other addictions. Or at least in Los Angeles it was ;) If you like macabre humor, social psychology and some feeling for vengeance, personal or societal this one is for you.
