A Cinematic Masterpiece

Rating: Null/10 (31 August 1999)

This is an amazing film. Though much is cut from the film itself (as opposed to what is written in the book), Kubrick is able to bring the story to life and it loses very little of the intensity and moralism of the novel by Anthony Burgess. Malcolm McDowell gives a stellar performance as Alex, taking the audience on the journey through the mind of a young man who's done "all the wrong things". The scenery perfectly complements the film, and the music is some of the most amazing I've ever heard, actually properly fitting the action taking place on screen. The first chord of the theme is struck and you're immediately catapulted into another world. All in all, this is one of the greatest movies of all time. I give it a full 10.
