Alex is given experimental drugs that cause him pain when he tries to commit a violent crime, but his recovery is questionable, since it isn't through his own free will.

Rating: 1/10 (20 April 2005)

I absolutely despised A Clockwork Orange. I have never watched any movie that upset me as much as this movie did. The rape scenes made me wish I wasn't a woman. Women were shown as being completely powerless against Alex.
Men can watch the rape scenes in A Clockwork Orange with the security of knowing this will never happen to them. To men this is only entertainment.
Only female nudity was exploited in this movie. In the one scene where Alex is naked, his private parts are shielded by a table.
At the end of the movie, it was infuriating to realize that Alex would get away with everything he had done, and continue to torture people in the future. The press caused the public to sympathize with Alex. The old man Alex beat so viciously that he had to use a wheelchair was locked up for political reasons. The press was responsible for unleashing Alex upon society. Personally, the only ending I would have found appropriate would be one in which Alex was executed for his violent crimes.
