Alex DeLarge is an "ultraviolent" youth in futuristic Britain. As with all luck, his eventually runs out and he's arrested and convicted of murder. While in prison, Alex learns of an experimental program in which convicts are programmed to detest violence. If he goes through the program, his sentence will be reduced and he will be back on the streets sooner than expected. But Alex's ordeals are far from over once he hits the streets of Britain.

- The Gutter MonkeyMarch 23, 2025Viddy good,
- Sun KingDecember 15, 2025"I was cured all right."
- CallumNovember 8, 2025⭐⭐⭐⭐½ – A Clockwork Orange – Violence, Virtue, and the Vicious Cycle of Man Stanley Kubrick’s A Clockwork Orange is as hypnotic as it is horrifying — a film that still feels transgressive half a century later. It isn’t just about violence; it’s about the machinery of control, and what happens when society tries to cure evil by erasing choice itself. In a world obsessed with order, Kubrick asks whether a man stripped of free will is still a man at all. Malcolm McDowell delivers one of cinema’s great performances as Alex DeLarge — charming, articulate, monstrous, and magnetic. He makes the unwatchable watchable, luring you into his world of “ultraviolence” and moral decay before forcing you to confront your own discomfort at being entertained by it. The infamous “Singin’ in the Rain” sequence remains one of film’s most disturbing juxtapositions: joy and cruelty perfectly choreographed into something unforgettable. Kubrick directs with cold precision — the geometry of his frames, the sterile futurism of his settings, and the ironic use of classical music all combine to turn brutality into art, and art into accusation. It’s not an easy film to sit through, nor should it be. Like Children of Men or Brazil, it sits in that uneasy middle ground between satire and nightmare, asking not whether humanity can be saved, but whether it deserves to be. It’s not for the faint-hearted, and it’s not meant to comfort. But it’s one of those rare works that stays with you — not because it’s pleasant, but because it forces you to look directly into the darker mirror of human nature. 🥃 Pairing: A glass of milk laced with rum — pure on the surface, dangerous underneath, and impossible to swallow without feeling its sting.
- cultfilmlikerSeptember 6, 2025“Doobidoob. A bit tired, maybe. Best not to say more. Bedways is rightways now, so best we go homeways and get a bit of spatchka. Right, right?”
- moprSeptember 18, 2025Gosh...good classic. Love the ending. Lots to take in on this movie
- seanp542September 13, 2025Weirder than the Rocky horror picture show I never thought I'd be able to say that
- mickerdooJune 28, 2025A visceral rollercoaster from antagonist to victim. Sex and ultra violence riddled throughout. McDowell genuinely worries you.
- darsanMay 25, 2025"goodness is something to be chosen. when a man cannot choose he ceases to be a man."
- Mister ArnMay 13, 2025This is one of those films that I loved the art of how it played, but not it's content. I found the film thought-provoking and very disturbing.
