Product: A Clockwork Orange [VHS] (1972)
Rating: 3.0
Average.
I can kinda see why "a clockwork orange" was controversial in it's day but in today's climate this all seemed a bit undercooked. Sure, some of it was disturbing but more at Stanley Kubrick's mind rather than what was going on here. I personally find rape reprehensible and he seemed to revel in filming it, my opinion only.The film got interested when the main character was in jail and the brainwashing scenes were well done but the main problem with this film in my opinion was that it was boring and seemed to try too hard to shock.Well, I've never seen what the big deal was with Kubrick, the only film of his I've really liked was "Dr Strangelove", he's always struck me as a bit of a perver really.
