Rating: 10/10 (20 May 2007)

Stanley Kubrick is one of the most important directors of all movies history. He makes controversy since his "Dr Strangelove" to its confuse "Eyes Wide Shut", and films that we never going to forget like "Lolita", "Full Metal Jacket" (I Have not seen this yet) and famous horror classic "The Shining". But, without a doubt, "A Clockwork Orange" can be called as its most important masterpiece. "A Clockwork Orange" is one of the most important critiques to any powerful division of the world. Home, politic, religion and morality are the central critiqued topics. All of this deceived by one of the most unforgettable and hated characters of movies of all time: Alex de Large.
"A Clockwork Orange", based on Anthony Burgess, told us the story of Alex. He is a young guy like any of its age. Well, only that he don't like go to school, and instead of that, he decided go with his "droogs" for milk-plus and at the same time to reserve forces for a night of ultra-violence, steal, rape and murder. But all change when Alex friends are unlawful with him. All is going to change? With a unforgettable Malcolm Mc Doweell as Alex, this futuristic propose of Kubrick is one of the most important works that i (Maybe every one) have ever seen. If don't is the "most important" critique of society (For me, the best movie that critiques society and world in every sense is Pier Paolo Pasolini's "Salò o le 120 giornati di Sodoma") is one of the best that you'll ever find. Alex, is that sarcastic character who embodies all a society. A dirty, unlawful and unmoral society. A society that in all its division, has and own interest (Politics and religion). An abusive and vengeful society. A society where only the strongest survives. The weakest lives wretchedly. And a society that think itself that is changed for good ... but maybe its the same ... maybe worst.
*Sorry for the mistakes ... well, if there any.
