Product: A Clockwork Orange [VHS] (1972)
Rating: 1.0
Astonished
Other reviews of Clockwork Orange tell me that I do not like the film because I do not "get it" or because I am close-minded. Some of the writers insist that the film has value because of the social commentary it contains, or because it is thought-provoking, or because of its enduring relevancy, or even because of its exceptional cinematography. Nonsense. None of these things justify the dehumanizing brutality of this film. I am not a better human being for having seen the film, and I have not been entertained by it (I would be too ashamed to admit it if I had been).
