Stanley Kubrick's True Masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2004)

I care not what anyone says about Full Metal Jacket or 2001. They are great films, as well are Spartacus, The Shining, and Dr. Strangelove. I have posted something like this on the message boards, but I will say it again. A Clockwork Orange is Stanley Kubrick's all time best film. The acting, directing, cinematography, writing, look, feel, and music are all perfect. All of the scenes are genius. This movie is not about raping, murder, lying, fighting, or going to prison for doing those things. It is about the transformation from monster to man and back again. In a way, Alex never changed. He was always his stubborn violent self. But that is what is so genius about the film. It's almost as if the book was written only so Stanley Kubrick could create this film. I recommend this great story about the rise and fall of Alex DeLarge to everyone, as long as you see it with an open mind and the intelligence to understand that this is not glorifying violence.
I give this film a **********10 out of ************10
