A Clockwork Orange and Taxi Driver of the 90s

Rating: 10/10 (16 October 1999)

My theory has already been proven. A film so original, with solid directing and outstanding acting will be judged poorly by the critics. Some moviegoers will complain about it's excessive violence and how it seems to have no point. They will also complain that the ones that like or love it must be very sick minded people who you should stay far away from. This happened when A Clockwork Orange and Taxi Driver were originally released in theaters. Look where they are now?
Some already are considering this a classic, and as the years go by it will be recommended every time you want to find a good old release at a video store. And why shouldn't it? Everything about it is original. The story deals with a lot more than fight club and has one of the smartest screenplays written since Pulp Fiction. Edward Nortan and Brad Pitt both give the performances of their careers. There are also so many memeorable scenes in the film such as the scene in which Edward Nortan literally beats the living hell out of himself in front his boss and when Pitt meets the owner of the bar they are holding their fight club meetings under every night. Some of the most original filming you will have seen in a long time also give the film an adrenaline rush while you watch it.
Some will walk out of the film getting ready to throw punches. Some will want to puke from all the disturbing images and violence throughout. But, like Pulp Fiction, whether you like it or dislike it, there's not much you can say that's wrong with it. The film is obviously not for everyone, a lot more for guys then anything else since they feel more hatred to the subjects brought up in the film. But a film so original and so amazing on every level you can't go wrong on the caliber of how great this film really is. So watch for the weeks to come as the film will be blamed for violence that goes on around our country, seems that a lot of the best films released have gone through the same routine. 10/10
