About this product

Product Information

From its opening shot of Malcolm McDowell staring with evil intent directly into the camera (which pulls back to reveal him drinking a glass of milk), Stanley Kubrick's brilliant A CLOCKWORK ORANGE announces itself as a completely new kind of viewing experience. The film, set in an unidentified future, overwhelms the senses with its almost comic depictions of rape and violence set to an upbeat classical and pop music score. Kubrick based his chilling masterpiece on Anthony Burgess's culture-shaking novel about a young man growing into adulthood, but unable to shake his huge problem with authority figures. The first part of the film shows Alex (a career-defining performance by McDowell) and his "droogs" (his cohorts) indulging in what they refer to as "a little bit of the old ultraviolence." After establishing Alex and co. as unremitting psychopaths, Kubrick's movie changes tact, and shows Alex getting caught and forced to undergo controversial treatment that will make it impossible for him to commit violent acts, leading to a fascinating ending to the film. A CLOCKWORK ORANGE purposely confuses crime and punishment, cause and effect, hero and villain, irony and satire, and many other concepts, creating a truly unique work of art in the process. Its magnificent, colorful, futuristic set designs and utter determination to shock, frighten, and thoroughly entertain left audiences reeling in the '70s. Kubrick even withdrew the film from distribution in the UK, after reading newspaper reports of people dressing up as Alex and his Droogs and meting out their own brand of ultraviolence (it was subsequently rereleased after his death). One thing is for sure: No one who has seen it has ever been able to hear "Singin' in the Rain" or Beethoven again in quite the same way.

    "The old ultra violence"

    This is an extremely violent film and a plausible view of the future. There is some sex which is hardly memorable because of the degree of violence, although there is one implied rape/murder scene. There is a vicious beating of an old drunk. There is another vicious fight between groups who somewhat recall the mods and rockers of the 60's. In this case, the white clad "mod" types beat up the dark clothed rockers. We are left with a scene of the victors standing over the vanquished, beating them on their heads with clubs. One wonders if it is a multiple homicide. It would be hard to find a film with more vicious one on one violence. Films like "Predator" feature multiple death by shooting. The leader, played by Malcolm McDowall is caught an imprisoned. He is introduced to the bible in an ...

  • A Kubrick Classic

    Stanley Kubrick did the movie The Shining in the early 80's, and at the time, I did not like the movie. The reason I didn't like the movie was because I had read the book, and many things were different, examples of this being the ending and the maze instead of the animal shaped shrubbery. With the release of Stephen King's The Shining, I actually liked that version compared to Stanley Kubrick's version. As time as passed though, I have rewatched the Stanley Kubrick version and have taken more of an appreciation to what he did with that film, especially with what he did with the camera work. I don't like it better than the Stephen King version (actually I like it about the same), I just think it's different. Same thing happened for me with A Clockwork Orange. When I initially saw the ...

  • Classic!

    "A Clockwork Orange" (directed by Stanley Kubrick, original novel by Anthony Burgess) is the story of Alexander DeLarge, an English boy who loves ultra-violence, rape, and classical music, particularly "the old Ludwig Van," as he calls him, and "his glorious 9th." He was eventually caught for his crime of passion and the government tried to reform him using a highly experimental cure, known as the Ludovico technique, which, while detrimental to his well being, Alex enthusiastically went along with just to get out of prison. They were successful but, even though his desire to commit acts of ultra-violence and rape were long gone, something goes terribly wrong with his psyche (which I will not reveal here because where's the fun in that?) and becomes considered a victim of the government. I ...

  • Kubrik's Masterpiece!

    I am sure a lot of people would argue with the title of my review but this is an opinion and different strokes for different folks! I love, absolutely adore other Kubrik films - Dr Strangelove, The Shining, Full Metal Jacket and Lolita to name a few - my favorite has to be Clockwork Orange. It is actually my favorite movie period. Based on Anthony Burgess's brilliant novel, Clockwork is set in the not-so-distant future (actually looks like Britain in the 60's) where ultraviolence is the rage. Gangs roam the streets, breaking into people's homes, vandalising, raping women. You name it they do it. One night the Alex, leader of one gang, gets left behind after a night of fun. The police arrest him and he is chosen to undergo a new type of therapy that will reprogram Alex to become ...

  • A CLASSIC FOR SURE!

    This movie is a true classic that stands the test of time and still beats out almost any movie made to this day. With great stars, a timeless story that rings true and strong decades later and a soundtrack that can be listened to over and over and still be entertaining, this blockbuster cannot be beat. With enough violence, action and nudity to hold even the most modern viewer's interest from scene to scene let alone from beginning to end, this is a must see for everyone over the age of 18-21, depending on your taste and temperament. What was filmed so many years ago has stood the test of time and will I am sure be a masterpiece to watch generation after generation. Run, not walk to your nearest library, video store or retail outlet to view, if not own this piece of history.
