Shockwork Orange

Rating: Null/10 (25 March 2004)

If I could sum up Clockwork Orange in two words, they would be shocking and delightful. Being made in 71, I found it hard to believe half the stuff they showed in this movie could even be shown now without angry moms revolting. But behind the tremendously dark sattire is surprizingly much substance. The film showcases quite possibly the craziest guy I have ever seen shown in a movie, he makes villains in comic books look perfectly normal. They also make him the hero, recounting exactly what led him up to the conclusion. I cannot sum up the rest of the story, because to try to say the plot would probably make me look stupid. It really is something that must be seen to be believed.
9/10 Pros: Brilliantly written script, funny dark humor, Review value [I've seen this film 10 times and it keeps getting better!], Great acting, and a brilliant score.
Cons: The only real problem I could think of is the language, which at times can seem a chore to listen and comprehend.
A cult classic that needs to be seen to respect filming, period!
