A film chiefly about making us watch terrible things and recognising that we have made the choice to watch them. It's a dirty trick to play on a viewer, but a fair one.

A violent meditation on violence. Not for kids.

If pride of place must go to A Clockwork Orange, it is because this chilling and mesmeric adaptation of the Anthony Burgess novel could well become one of the seminal movies of the seventies.
August 22, 2008
A merciless, demoniac satire in the future imperfect.

Individual and group violence in the present day, keep this film relevant and full of wisdom. [Full review in Spanish]

Stanley Kubrick's latest film takes the heavy realities of the 'do-your-thing' and 'law-and-order' syndromes, runs them through a cinematic centrifuge, and spews forth the commingled comic horrors of a regulated society.
February 06, 2013
A painless, bloodless, and ultimately pointless futuristic fantasy.

There is no other director who can transfix the human condition with such galvanic images.

Kubrick's contributions are his wit and his eye. The wit, too much at times, is as biting as in Dr. Strangelove, and the production, while of another order, is as spectacular as in 2001.

A very bad film -- snide, barely competent, and overdrawn -- that enjoys a perennial popularity, perhaps because its confused moral position appeals to the secret Nietzscheans within us.

A mind shattering experience with its exaggerated violence and outrageous vulgarity.
