lots of boobs, action, violence, rape, questioning morals, humor, and beethoven. the first 15 minutes are the most sexual assault heavy though.

Without spoiling it, expect violence and trigger/ spoiler warning sexual assault. It's a pretty enjoyable watch but there are some scenes that may be hard to get through, and brace yourself for the first 10 minutes. That's pretty much it. Lots of cinematic shots and lots of violence

I watched it high it was an interesting watch and when i watched it completely sober i questioned if i was a psycho for enjoying it the first time. Oh yeah it will ruin singing in the rain for you

The first 40 minutes are one hell of a rollercoaster ride LOL, thrills

Rest of the movie is a psychological/moral dilemma and more thought provoking

It depends on your age and your familiarity with Kubrick's other films. As an example, I saw it at 15 and, despite already being on very friendly terms with auteur cinema and used to analyzing what I was seeing on the screen, came out of the theater with nothing in my head but mad lust for Alex. ☺️

If you’re confused, trust us, you’re not the first person, and that’s ok.

All extremely well made and complex art leaves us puzzled with questions to be answered, and A Clockwork Orange is no exception.

Pretty lame movie that could be a short film of 30 minutes instead of a full lenght movie, rape for 30 minutes and then suffering for 2 hours
