Basically, a bunch of apes partying to some classical music.

Rating: Null/10 (26 September 2012)

Okay, if I've learned one thing from watching this movie, it's the fact that Kubrick is thoroughly insane. And that's probably a good thing in this case.
As you have probably noticed, it's very hard to describe this movie. It has very little dialogue. It's unlike any movie you have ever seen. So let me start off by saying that I'm in my late teens and I find it hard to sit in one place for two and a half hours. And I've managed to sit trough this whole movie. The visual side of this movie is perfect. The imagery, the colors, the scenes. Not to mention that it probably took forever to make it. I cannot believe that someone made this forty years ago.
I'm not going to rate this movie because your satisfaction depends on what you expect from it. Think of it as a piece of classical music. It's complex, sophisticated and technically perfect. If you're in the right mood, you will enjoy it greatly. If you're not, a simple yet straightforward three-chord song will elicit more emotion than the aforementioned piece ever would. In any case, it's the work of a genius and you should see it just because it is a milestone in film making.
I strongly recommend getting stoned before watching this movie. Actually, wait, that's a terrible idea.
