One of those films where you think what is all the hype for? Average yes but one of the best ever, don't make me laugh!
True, it's not bad to fill in a couple of hours and I have viewed with an open mind but cannot see the plaudits it seems to get from many.
I'm sorry but to see a bunch of thugs performing 'ultra' violence including beatings and rapings to provide entertainment is quite beyond me. Some of the violence is sickening by all accounts.
The main character Alex (McDowell) deserves public execution not behaviour-modification therapy. What about the victims of this thugs (and his droogs) atrocities? Don't they deserve retribution and the viewers sympathy? I suppose it brings out political standpoint?
The director, Stanley Kubrick is hit and miss with me. I will give him something about this film it is certainly thought provoking and one that polarizes opinion.
