Psychological

Rating: 9/10 (16 February 2015)

This movie is a very gratuitous, disturbing movie, don't get me wrong. I hate all of the contents of it. However, it does closely stick to the book and everything is portrayed unbelievably well. The movie is also filmed incredibly by Stanley Kubrick and Malcolm McDowell plays (in my opinion) his best, and scariest role. McDowell ran away with it. I should specify, I don't like this movie, however; I respect it so much. The story of why the book was made is so shocking and sad (go look it up if you don't know it) that the movie makes sense and I see why all the sex/rape and violence is actually necessary. Also, the way the movie is made is so well done and revolutionary for the time that it deserves respect, and as a movie lover, this was a very well directed and well executed movie. It
I saw the movie for the first time last year after reading the book. I saw it, I hated, yet I couldn't get it to leave my mind. I would constantly think about it and let it terrorize me. Until a few months ago when it hit me. This movie is so deep. I first thought it was a psychological thriller intended to show how someone who is so bad can change and make you feel sorry for them. But no. It's about forgiving those who have done the unforgivable. The allegory of the book and movie is so movie that it's so clear to see after you know what has happened.
I hate this movie, but at the same time, it's a revolutionary, captivating, and mind-bending movie that keeps the viewer always thinking about this great, horrible, twisted, sad movie.
