Kubrick's Only Vice

Rating: 1/10 (4 November 2006)

Many people like this movie, maybe they do have their reasons .. well, I like Kubrick and he is one of the greatest directors but this movie is the black sheep in his career. It is too violent and too disgusting; no wonder it was banned in the USA and other countries. I didn't even like Malcolm McDowell performance which was an OK at its best. I wouldn't say this movie is thoughtless but it is less thoughtful than most of Kubrick's movies .. to be honest the music was wonderful especially Beethoven's, there is good cinematography and there is some sign of brilliance in the picture, I mean visually but unfortunately all of that didn't do the movie any good.. in short, the movie is horrible and it celebrates the violence .. I wouldn't recommend the movie to anybody even my enemy(s) ..
so, save your time and money .. do yourself a favor and skip it. Mark my words: you wouldn't miss much.
