Kubrick at his Best

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2008)

This, was in fact, a very strange movie. But, it is worth watching; not only for the outrageous characters, but the way Stanley Kubrick directed. While watching the violence, along with a tune of "Singin' in the Rain", I couldn't help but laugh. I do admit that this film is disturbing at points, but very tender in others, a spectrum that Kubrick is good at exploiting.
Malcom McDowell was excellent in the cast playing Alex, the deranged teen and crazed maniac. The entire film reminded me of the 'Monty Python' group, that is, the narration was reminiscent. And on a highlight, when released, garnered an 'X' rating, and an Academy Award nomination. One of very few to do so.
I was surprised at the artistic value of the film when I viewed it, and was not sure what kind of rating it would receive. Afterwards though, I knew it deserved the best, so 10 of 10.
