Stanley Kubrick's a Clockwork orange

Rating: 9/10 (6 January 2008)

I'm not sure if i made a mistake or not, but i watched the movie before i read the book. But it made me understand the Nadsat language a bit more and made somethings clearer in the book.
The movie had some references in the book, some people say that the movie and the book are irreplaceable but i didn't think so at all. 75% of the book is in the movie maybe more but it isn't a lot of other book based movie's i've seen. I wasn't disappointed oh no...but when i read the book i found somethings that Kubrick either didn't want to make in the movie or something that was just corrected or changed entirely, some of those things really drives me crazy.
Anyway for a movie this is a masterpiece, how the opera music fits in to the fighting scenes is really breathtaking, that no one didn't think of that before. The movie is before it's time in many ways, it gives you a view of the future (today it's kinda lame since the time when the movie is taking place on is already over). But i bet when it had release it gave a good view.
Some people says that this is a movie that you see over & over. I agree, i've watched some scenes in the movie maybe a thousand times.
but something keeps bothering me. When i ask people what they think of the movie they go "OH a Clockwork orange it's so violent and terrifying" , well it is but it's also a good movie. So i keep going on "Yes but don't you think this it's good?" "...well kinda but it's soooo violent"
It's like people is embarrassed to even enjoy the movie, but i'm not!! And i don't think other people should be either, when the movie had it's release the reactions were very strong but that was before, today people watch it without even blink. So please people give it a chance and watch this masterpiece!
"A Clockwork orange" 8/10 "A masterpiece"
