her: “something about him feels off”

Nothing about this film is "bullshit." It is a masterpiece.
I think she meant the violence
@@ljack-dr7kx thats life. The weak are preyed apon. It's how predators live. I get some folk are more sensitive,but damn...
@@ljack-dr7kx Bruh there's a billion movies out there with more violence than this one.
@@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470 its the sexual violence coupled in with the psychological theme of terror. Almost no other movies compare to this movie in those aspects. You perhaps lack emotional intelligence
Perhaps she ought not to have watched it if she prefers morality over art and aesthetics
Being forced to watch the dark underbelly of society is supposed to be uncomfortable. The correction administered by the government is also uncomfortable. That it didn't work is also uncomfortable.
Imo thats the problem with the younger generation (I'm 64) , they never seem to want to be out of their comfort zone, even if it's to make a good point, which imo doesn't bode well for future generations of film makers....
@@Silver-rx1mh Hello, sir! I just want to give you a positive view of my young generation so you don't despair for future generations. I'm a HUGE Kubrick fan since I was 15 years old. I'm 29 now but I have seen lots of younger people growing their passion for art films, even the most uncomfortable ones. I know that "safe" mainstream cinema is still the most popular amongst the majority of the younger generation but that was always the case, since the classical era of Hollywood and passing through the 60s, 70s and 80s. Star Wars was always more popular than 2001: A Space Odyssey, for example.
Conversely, there's a lot of filmmakers today making artistically daring and socially or psychologically uncomfortable films, some of them even in the mainstream and being nominated or winning the Oscars (Moonlight, Parasite, Get Out, Roma, Nomadland etc.), and a lot of them being indie films which are getting even more popular now more than ever because of streaming services, or even TV shows like The Handmaid's Tale, 13 Reasons Why or Black Mirror, all very disturbing but with deep messages. My conclusion is that you should rest assured that there will always be dark, profound and intense films, and the young public will also always dig them because we dig adrenaline, endorphin, philosophical discussions, edgy art and all that jazz! Young people will always be the same young people in every generation there is, but of course not everyone is the same, like the one in this video... You can say the same thing about the older generation. My 74 year old mom and my 68 year old dad will NEVER watch anything like A Clockwork Orange or Black Mirror.
First time watching a real cat lady. I've heard about them and seen jokes and parodies but never seen a real serious one.
Scary when the four legged one has the higher IQ
This is like a child watching a movie
Exactly.
Awful. Poor Stanley.
It is obvious....you just don't get it.
Stick to Spongebob the movie next time
Absolutely…. It was comical to hear her…….. cat has more personality…… lol
Yes, this so called "reaction movie" should be banned cuz of the sheer stupidity or; I`m having a better idea, let US ALL do a "reaction video" to this "reaction video" because this is a fu***ng shame for humanity!!!
"He might be a bad guy." Haha. Well if that wasnt the understatement of 2020.
Bahaha
@@MoviesMoveMe Hey, your video was garbage.
That's all.
You're supposed to treat his thirst for violence like his love of music. It's the same emotional experience for him and how we empathize.
I love knowing she’s gonna be super disappointed with the ending and seeing Alex learn nothing
Well if we consider that he was brainwashed, we can conclude that the boy never had the opportunity to learn anything.
This is different from the original ending to the book. In which, he gives up his violent ways and wants to start a family.
@@nathansullivan8472 Tbh I feel like that would've been super hard to translate into the film
It's not that he didn't learn anything, it's that he reverted to back to how he behaved naturally. That's the entire point of the film. Are criminals born or are they made? Does man have the capacity to experience free will? And, if we have the ability to change them, should we?
he was conning from the start he just wants to get out of prison
This is definitely one of my favorite movies up there with deer hunter, one flew over the cuckoo's nest, and fight club
@Valy01 i think its the performances, the tone and the russian roulette scene really made me love it, but after more thought i decided spirited away is my favorite
For my picks it would definitely need to be clockwork, cuckoos nest, and natural born killers
Omg I love One Flew
It's a rough movie to get through. But it shows that the individual and system simultaneously scam and co-opt each other for gain, and other innocents get caught in the process. It's very honest piece on the world we live in.
Yes. Yes
Movies are supposed to make you feel uncomfortable. If a filmmaker can do this then they have served their purpose and made a good movie.
Exactly. Art isn't safe.
movies aren't "supposed to make you feel uncomfortable" but many of the best movies do.
@@plasticweapon Of course, not all movies are made to make you feel uncomfortable.
Just the best ones.
It's like watching someone from the Clockwork Orange universe review the movie. She's clueless.
Isn't she just? All of these whining American women should be forced to watch this film a la the Ludivico treatment.
Do we have a fucking problem people?
@@lutherblissett8780 lmao good idea.
@@jamesharper3933 - and if we did?
@@jamesharper3933 right right what if we do sir? Shall we partake in some jolly ol fun then chap?
An interesting titbit: when Anthony Burgess wrote the novel in 1962 Alex and his Droogs were written as young teens, 14 and 15. When Kubrick made the film in '71 it seemed absurd that such young people would be involved in that kind of violence, so he cast them older. Of course, all these years later the idea of 14 year olds engaging in that sort of violent behavior is no longer not unthinkable but nearly commonplace.
The novel was written during the height of the cold war and posits a future in which some kind of cultural rapprochement has been reached, which is why Alex's slang is adapted from Russian. For instance, he uses the word "horrorshow" to mean very good. That is an Anglicization of the Russian "хорошо" (khorosho) which means good or OK.
I saw the film when it came out and thought it a brilliant piece of film making. I read the novel a few years after, because I'm always interested in the process of adaptation.
A friend of mine used to say, "There are two kinds of people: those who understand what Stanley Kubrick is doing and those who don't understand what Stanley Kubrick is doing. It's a rather glib sentiment but it does seem that Kubrick's film often drive people into two camps.
Yeah I could see that. Lol I guess I'm in the camp that doesn't see what Kubrisk is doing?
Kubrick is one of those directors who doesn't spend any time on explicit exposition. None of that "As you may know..." He expects that by the end of the film you will understand what has been happening. Of course, it doesn't always work out that way.
"2001: A Space Odyssey" famously left audiences wondering what had happened as they left the theater. The general confusion was so widespread that Arthur C. Clarke, on whose short story the film was based and who consulted on the screenplay, expanded the short story into a full novel after the film came out so that all the questions could be answered.

Pleeez reaction 🔥🔥
burgess also wrote the last chapter which isn't in the movie that shows the last of alex's gang leading a normal life and alex starts to actually change his ways after meeting him. burgess was pretty mad that this wasn't in the movie nor in the original american version of the book. brilliant movie making though. lol. wendy carlos who did tron did a great job with the soundtrack.
in 71 this was very violent , now this is what we see on the 6 oclock news.
Ya know... saying "I don't think I'm gonna like this movie" through the entire movie, is likely to somewhat hamper your appreciation of the film & its story, and/or meaning.
At the end of the movie they showed that the treatment Alex had been subjected to had been undone and he was back to normal.
Back to "normal" as in his old ultra violence fantasies.
No shit duuhh this movie sucks
@@aoccza7 Stick to your Hollywood trash.
@@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470 any movie is better than a movie based on showing a guy some movies and giving him inyections to cure him from doing evil things. Sounds logical and real. Damn!! what a great plot hahahaha
@@aoccza7 the first half was kinda funny but yeah the second half has way too little going on
She wasn't ready for the old in out in out...
My number one film of all time. I would have to know you to recommend it or not lol. Kubrick is the greatest
I'm glad that I don't know her.
Absolutely... I cant forget the first time i watched this film
Its sad that when people dont understand more subtle messages in movies they hate them. If I don't understand something I will at least see an explanation.
@@mistertoad1364 That's exactly why I hate seeing people complain about the ending. It would go completely against the theme of the movie if the experiment actually cured Alex.
@@mistertoad1364 I’ve seen 5 different videos about the themes of the movie and i still hate it. I honestly felt like i wasted 2 hours of my life on boring, meaningless media. I’d honestly rather watch The Emoji Movie because at least that had me entertained.
I loved this movie the first time i saw it...the ending of showing Alex returning to his ultra-violent self with the "I was cured, alright" dialogue was both depressing and hilarious. it asked the question "Was the cure worse than the disease?"
You should watch the movie Shattered Glass...it's phenomenal and based on a true story.
Don't bother trying to get through to her
@@snnnaaaaaakeeeee4470 - She had already responded to me, although her response is gone now.
This reaction would be a good advertisement for the film
09:10 "I'm watching violence."
No - you're watching Ultraviolence.
The ending shows Alex making a deal with the head of the government who signed off on his "treatment" to be positive about the government and the role the government played in "curing" him. The "cure" itself is shown to be losing its effectiveness in an earlier scene and one can assume Alex will revert to the violent sociopath that he was - just this time with a good job. The film asks the question of whether morality can be legislated and what happens to free will when it is? Alex is a monster but the greater monster is a government which would fight crime with state sponsored behavioral conditioning as well as buying off any casualties along the way - just for the sake of retaining power. A Clockwork Orange is, without question, the greatest film about free will ever made.
Clockwork Orange is my all time favorite movie, it legit changed the way I view art and made me want to be an artist. That being said I fully get why this movie is such a hard watch for so many. Its the definition of a problematic fav and I don't blame anyone who does not want to see the ol ultraviolece.
Aww thank you, your comment is very kind. :)
When it comes to movies, I hold to the principle "to each their own".
Even when I watched this movie (and all I saw was horrible rape thinking how could anyone like this??!), I still knew that everyone sees things differently, and though I couldn't understand why ppl would like it, I fully respect that many ppl do and have reasons for why they do, it doesn't matter if I understand or not.
That's one of the cool things about movies, we all get value in different ways, and that alone is a cool thing. :)
And wow very cool that this movie impacted you in a way that you want to be an artist! :D
@@MoviesMoveMe When ideology blinds you to art or philosophy, it has lessened your intelligence by definition. You dont have to like something to understand the social commentary. Its not a Marvel movie to entertain you, it was taken from a book written by a deeply intellectual human. From the creation of an entire language, to the specific use of music etc used in the film. The fact you find the rape worse than the Nazi idolization is odd, Kubrick was Jewish and still able to confront that as part of the social commentary of the movie
To be honest, underdeveloped brains will always struggle with complex issues, and boil them down to like/dislike and basic animal feelings of comfort. I guess we are finally devolving and unable to even comprehend nuanced topics
Bruh it isn't problematic at all. It's a criticism of both criminal behaviour and the rehabilitation system...
You watched a masterpiece
One man's masterpiece is another man's shit pot.
@@jamesharper3933 A Clockwork Orange isnt shit.
@@chickenflavor9880 he knows that
Well, by the amount of dislikes and the overall comments, it seems to me like I should not even begin to watch this video. I don't want to spend any time watching one of Stanley Kubrick's masterpieces being trashed by someone who doesn't even understand the multi-layered messages in this movie about free will, psychiatry, the decadence of society, political corruption, the prison system etc. People should really try to have an open mind when making reaction videos because the whole point of a reaction video is because a fan of said movie or show will watch you react and we want people to understand why we love said movie or show. This one in particular is considered a masterpiece by the vast majority of art critics, film theorists, film historians, directors, and the general public, and it isn't for nothing, you know.
To be fair i think most people didn't like this movie on first viewing.
The cinematography was great but the violence probably overshadows it for some.
@@ashleyx3822 untrue
@@MrJambot i know you should never judge a book by It's cover but did you think this lady was going to enjoy this film? I respect her honestly. She should watch Cannibal Holocaust next and tell all the hipsters that its not a good film too.
@@ashleyx3822 I have no idea. I assume anyone watching a Kubrick film will give it the time and effort it deserves. However, these people go with recommendations and poll votes which is dumb if you aren't open minded about cinema generally. Cannibal Holocaust is boring to some and shocking to others. I'm somewhere in the former camp.
@@MrJambot fair point. I just assume most people that don't like this film probably watch the first 20 violent minutes of the beginning then just tune out for the rest of it. The cinematography was great though.
Is there anything you _can_ handle watching? You looked away from the rape, you looked away from _all_ of the violence, you looked away for half the scene with Alex's eyes in clamps, you looked away from the Holocaust imagery (??)... if you can't handle this stuff in a movie that's 50 years old, you must have real trouble with today's movies.
You said it man..millenials I guess
@@ianchristopher9422 look how old she is, millenial? possibly, but she looks about 40
She probably looks away when somebody trips on a curb
When his eyes were pried open he had his corneas scratched and that’s why his screams were so realistic
This has to be the worst attempt at a movie reaction video I've ever seen.
i think a cardboard box could put more interest into the movie or then she does
Give her a break dude.
@@chickenflavor9880 that's like saying someone saying Mozart was lame and expecting no hate lol. This film is pure art a master piece looking deep into the soul and making you question free will vs control. She's comparing this art to modern concepts and that is impossible, she might as well be saying cover up the Greek statues!
@@drzaius8430 I know i love this movie. She is to sensitive. But whatever.
A Clockwork Orange is one of my favorites, alongside Requiem For A Dream and The Basketball Diaries. None of these are a easy watch for most people, y'know, and seeing your reaction to one of them was pretty... entertaining in a way lmao
New drinking game: down a shot everytime she says she may not make it all the way through the film.
Good lord man you won’t survive
Any excuse to drink.
If she tried this shit in a European cinema. Oi vey...
You tryna to kill me.
Your analysis is tedious, and your comments are mostly irrelevant. Respect for watching until the end, but you have lots of room to improve the review.
I'm trying not to be harsh but...i really think people are getting dumber and lazy that any movie that isn't explained by the script in details, people are too lazy to think.
This person wants to be spoonfed.
You really didn't understand this movie at all, but that's understandable. I recommend that you'll stick with Disney movies. No horrible violence and not that much thinking required.
Bahaha, how'd you know I like Disney?! ;)
@@crweewrc1388 Oh totally I agree that I should respect other's opinions, and I definitely do (at some point in this reaction I say "no disrespect, I know this is a classic for a lot of ppl, this just isn't my thing". I'm new at this channel, but I'm doing my best to give a completely honest reaction "while at the same time" emphasizing that I mean no disrespect to anyone that likes it. So if I love a movie, that'll show, and if I can't stand a movie, that'll show, but I will always try to say at some point "no disrespect to anyone that likes this". I apologize if it comes off as just hating, lol I promise I'm not a hater! I have a motto (and I've shared it a couple times since I started this channel), "When it comes to movies, to each their own". :)
@@crweewrc1388 Bahahaha my bad, lol. Hahaha oh me. Thank you for your comment CRWERCRC EWCREW teeheehee (lol for real I appreciate you) :)
@@crweewrc1388 No, thank youuu ^.^
So basically the moral is; is it better to take away someone’s human will or let the decide themselves
Or just put them in jail for the rest of their life. I'm mostly against this type of conditioning, but he DID agree to it... AND with *his* crimes it would be better to condition him. The problem is... no one knows what other psych symptoms could manifest as a side effect.
@@BlackavarWD it was better off for Alex that he stayed in prison for the rest of his life. He only volunteered to do the treatment because he wanted to get out of prison sooner. He was unrepentant of his sins regardless how the treatment done him. I agree with the Prison Chaplin that the state took away his free will with this treatment. But I wonder if the Chaplin ever succeeded to save any souls doing his ministry?
A film that begs the question of which is worse: Committing horrible and despicable acts..... or society forcing an individuals behavior.
Much easier to understand the dialogue if you stop talking over it every few seconds.
Seriously, what was the point of this reaction? You obviously hated the movie and regretted watching it. Then you had to sit through it again to edit it. Why waste your own time let alone other people that enjoy (and understand) the film?
You should stick to "Fried Green Tomatoes" or maybe "Steel Magnolias". You got ratioed 189 to 369 because Clockwork is the "holy grail" of iconoclastic/independent films...it's also by Stanley Kubrick, a director that film buffs treat as a "mortal god". You just SAW a film that basically defines what art in filmmaking is all about.
So much of this reaction annoyed me. Forget the cat and watch the movie. Turn subtitles on if you can’t understand the characters. Bruh.
Hahaha, I feel ya. And I don't blame you if this reaction annoyed you. A big part of my goal in doing this channel (as I'm brand new at this reaction channel), is to be completely honest, and so if a movie is straining the life out of me and I have to fight to stay interested, then I won't try to hide that. I'm wanting to be completely candid in how something makes me react.
BUT I'm doing my very best to emphasize that I never mean disrespect to any and all people that like something I don't, I think that when it comes to movies, it's GREAT that we all see things and appreciate things so differently. :)
When it comes to movies, I'm a firm believer in "To each their own". :)
"Forget the cat and watch the movie", bahaha, that part made me laugh, lol.
Thanks for your comments Rodney Steffan, I appreciate them even if it means you disliked things (as I always take criticism constructively). :)
Peace!
btw - to get the last part of the movie, read the newspapers and listen to the minister speak. they lost a lot of popularity due to him getting tons of sympathy in the press. they therefore convinced him to be a propoganda spokesman for them, to show that the government 'cared'. He went along to get the associated perks, and the music and psychiatrist showed that they had 'cured' him. very cynical ending on top of a starkly bleak movie - I saw it first when I was 10 and man it did a number on me.
Possibly the worst reaction I've ever seen to any film. The reactor gives the impression that she should stick to watching Walt Disney movies about princesses. If reality offends you then best stay in church.
Jesus Christ...I don't understand people like this.
I am sure nobody will ever worry about your moral compass. But as a reaction video this kind of sucks
The point of Kubrick is that the film should be disturbing. To not be is to have the world become the film.
Interesting fact, the bodybuilder who was with artist was David Prowse who played Darth Vader in the original Star Wars trilogy.
Thanks for your honest opinion. This is my all-time favorite film, but I acknowledge and respect that some films are not for everyone. You said you had trouble understanding what characters were saying - why not turn on the subtitles?
Bahaha, because I didn't think of that, lol. I mean I understood most of what they were saying, it's just that at times I didn't retain what they said. Lol in hind sight though, subtitles would've been a good idea hahaha.
Yeah some films aren't for everyone, but I am a firm believer that when it comes to movies, "To each their own" ! :D
That's why when I react to a movie I don't like (which, I'm brand new at having a reaction channel, but still), I try really hard to give my completely honest opinion while at the same time trying to emphasize that I mean no disrespect to anyone that likes it, I really do think "to each their own" when it comes to movies, we all get value in different ways and that's a really cool thing about being human, being unique in how we see things. :)
My favorite also
Movies Move Me, did your cat throw up when watching this movie? My cat did when I watched it for the first time!
@@MoviesMoveMe "to each his own" is a very old turn of phrase. you do you boo. i'm typing this after ready some comments but prior to watching. i'm watching NOT because i love to watch reactions to A Clockwork Orange but because i want to see YOUR reaction specifically. i'm watching to compare your editing from a year ago till The Fog reaction, how comfortable you are on screen then/now, the rich details of the story behind hanna and MMM. And yes, your reactions are nice too.
This 'review' is a troll, right?
Sadly, no.
The end: the officials were afraid of how their experiment on Alex would be seen to the public, so they re-wired (so to speak) his mind while he was in the hospital back to the socipath he was during the first half of the movie, and then convinced him to keep quiet about it. He was a sociopath again but in service to the powers that be...his fellow thug friends were the same way in that they were sociopaths that were put in service of law enforcement, so it was ok. The moral? People don't really change.
hahaha, thank you for explaining it. I was completely clueless, lol especially since I didn't like this movie, by the end my mind was so strained at trying to grasp this movie for so long that I was completely lost, lol. Gawwd the long rape scenes (and the way they were filmed so light-heartedly blaaahhhh), ukkk I didn't like it, lol. But when it comes to movies, I definitely think "to each their own", just because I see something a certain way certainly doesn't mean that everyone else will. I just know that what "I" saw and got from this movie, I hated, lol.
I see you suggested the movie Shattered Glass, is that anything like this movie though? Clearly I didn't like this movie, lol, so if it's anything like it I doubt I'd like it. But were you just starting a new thought (unrelated to this movie) in suggesting it?
@@MoviesMoveMe - Shattered Glass is nothing like A Clockwork Orange, so don't worry lol...it's an incredibly fascinating true story. I only watched it because I was on a 14 hour flight to Sydney, Australia, and it was one of 8 movies I could watch on the video monitor for my seat. I was blown away by it, GREAT acting, it's a bit of a mystery and keeps you glued to what will happen next.
Boogie Nights is another fantastic movie, although it will require some pixelation at times like you did for A Clockwork Orange lol...but it is sooooo funny, highly watchable and entertaining, great acting.
Unfortunately, i don't think either one of these movies is on Netflix, though.
@@endorphinzz Oh cool thanks! I'll definitely consider it then! :D
And Sydney Australia wow! lol that's awesome. :)
No offense, but did you ever went out of your church?
A clockwork orange is definitely one of my favorite films/ novels of all time. Philosophically speaking. If you dont have a problem with subtitles. Check out Amelie.
i ❤️ your popups. you do an amazing job of tell two stories at once.
it's definitely not an easy watch this film. It is subtly implied through the film that the ludovico technique doesn't actually work at all (in contradiction to the book), and Alex was only chosen because he's clearly manipulative enough to fake a positive result..(he only freaks out at the music because it's a bad recording with synthesisers, and that truly upsets him regardless). I took from this film the idea that we live in a society that actively rewards the kind of people like alex as long as it's in line with those in power. Alex becomes establishment at the end, which accepted his ways as they are just as amoral. (the observers in his fantasy at the end are all dressed in clothing people wear at Ascot race day, high society, applauding him as if he's chosen to be himself, within their system). there's a lot of nazi related symbology associated with alex through the film too, as if he's unaware of his politics. that's not to say kubrick was condoning that, more that he fears our society is still acting in fascist ways, and showing us in an exaggerated manner. The freewill debate is important, but its not the entirety of the themes in the film. There's some hints that various authority figures had been molesting alex - his parole/probation officer and the priest, a sort of layered mirroring of Alex's abusive nature throughout society's hierarchy, Even the crippled author wanted to use alex as a political sacrifice before he even knew Alex had assaulted him, implying all political extremes are essentially equally amoral and authoritarian...and you understand why alex is the way he is. It's very deliberately jarring and unsettling, with exaggerated juxtapositions of mischievous classical music and horrific violence in multiple forms, as a lot of cinema does combine the 2 in less overt ways to engage and titillate the viewer. It's a distorted mirror to focus in on the darker aspects of our society, it's values and how it can mould us for the worse. I've only recently been re-watching Kubrick's films and while a lot of them are unsettling in many ways, i've found the subtle ways he misleads a viewer to allow for several storylines and themes to plausibly unfold, fascinating, and overrides that unsettling sensation. if you switch your perspective slightly, interpret a piece of dialogue differently when a character is deliberately vague, suddenly the entire context of scenes shift, with meticulously placed visual clues to reinforce those alternate interpretations. It's just unfortunate he never left a more simple decoder to his thought processes s its taken researching a few different sources to get an inkling 😂🤦♂. I understand this isn't everyone's form of entertainment, and no shame in not having enjoyed the experience...there's ton of movies i wouldn't even give the time to, so no criticism on not liking this film from me
despite your traditionalism you saw it complete and that is a merit, congratulations

The movie is constructed that way they show alexs violenc sooooo over the top is for u to see how bad he is, but he is that naturaly and BY the experiments they turned hím into a normal person but that is actually the monster
#1 I think the only bloody scene is the police station scene after Alex takes the milk bottle to the face...in all the rest of the movie, even Dim getting his hand sliced, there really isn't much blood...
#2) Yes, Alex is a bad guy...
#3) If you can make it through the first ten minutes or so, you'll be fine...
#4) Yes, you DO want to see him get what's coming to him...
#5) Did you know that Malcolm McDowell sliced one of his corneas open filming the eye-clip scene?
#6) No, Alex is not really repentant at all...
#7) The Treatment wears off, the political winds change and Alex is regarded by those in power as a vital figurehead in their war against the opposing party so Alex is basically going to have a straight path to being put out on the street free to do what he wanted to do...the final image is another of his fantasies...

The actor is Malcolm Mcdowell. I had no idea until after I watched. Also, found out after watching, the device used to keep his eyes open is designed to be used when a patient is lying down. Because they needed him sitting up, of course the device malfunctioned and scraped his cornea. Yea I didn't know what to think of this movie when I first watched (i did eat a gram of mushrooms right before watching) but after letting it digest, hearing from other people, doing a little research...It is a fascinating film. It's tough for someone watching in 2020, of a movie made in 1971 about a dystopian future, but once you can almost get that perspective, things start to become clearer. What type of movies are you interested in? what are some of your faves?
Daaamn they scraped his cornea!!!!!!!!
I feared for something like that, poor Malcolm. AAAAaaaaHhHHH
Lol your reaction cracked me up (literally made me laugh out loud a couple times haha), and yay so glad you got to watch my reaction too how fun! :D :D :D
And movies!
My favorite genre would be thriller (not "horror", though many of my thrillers could be categorized as horror) - The Sixth Sense, The Silence of the Lambs, What Lies Beneath, one I reacted to on this channel that I just watched actually called The Changeling was EPIC (if you haven't seen it I DEFINITELY recommend it, if you like thriller, and also don't watch my reaction UNLESS you've seen it because that movie is a masterpiece and I wouldn't wanna spoil it for you, then if you watch it come back and watch my reaction because it's hilarious and FUN hahaha).
I like all sorts of movies though - Jurassic Park, Fight Club, True Lies, The Interview, Groundhog's Day, The Matrix, Nell, Dead Poets Society, Hook, The Fugitive, omg the list is infinite.
Actually if you go to the 12 second mark of this video and pause, those are all sorts of movies that I either love or enjoy. :)
What about you? :D

Some of those movies are more violent than Clockwork Orange.
@@BlackavarWD haha yes that's true, but to me the thing about Clockwork, is how it filmed gang rape scenes so lightheardedly, that's what I couldn't get over the most. I have a really hard time watching any rape scene anyway, but to watch one (and "multiple" ones) that's filmed with fun and lighthearded music literally makes me feel sick to my stomach.
In some of the movies I like that have lots of violence (lol like fucking "Scream" bahaha), it portrays the violence as violence. I like a lot of movies, it's possible there could be ones that they portray rape lightheardedly, but I can't think of any.
Lol anyway, not that you probably care about my reasonings for things, but since you said this (and I can understand why you'd say it), I just thought I'd explain in case you were; I can understand why it'd be confusing that I could hate Clockwork but like other movies with violence.
But when it comes to movies, I'm a firm believer in "To each their own". :)
Movies effect us all in different ways - sometimes we enjoy movies that other people don't and vice versa.
That's partly why in any video I do (as I'm a new reactor), I try my best to give a completely honest review while at the same time saying that I mean no disrespect to anyone that sees it differently than me (as there will ALWAYS be that, no matter who you are).
Lol anyway, didn't mean to write you a long reply, I just felt the urge to explain is all.
:)
@@MoviesMoveMe
They did a good job of showing you how depraved Alex was. That was the point. The other characters (not his friends) reacted as a "normal" person would. It's hard to watch... but effective in making you *OK* with the treatment they gave him. Normally we would not approve (like innocent animal "testing")
@@BlackavarWD Yeah I gathered that, at some point I even said "I bet that's why we're having to watch all this bullshit, to see how awful of a person he is", and yeah I was correct about that much, lol. And I agree, I'd be horribly against that kind of treatment for most anyone else; which, I don't even know how I'd feel about it for anyone (in real life), but I'm just talking about being okay with this kind of treatment "in a movie", in the movie I could handle it being done to him because of how awful he was.
Lol and as you can probably guess, I am horridly against vivisection (aka animal testing).
If you don't understand this I have no hope for you. Go back to sleep.
Wow... what the hell AM I watching?! Just shows that anyone with a laptop and a bed sheet background thinks they should make a video on RUclips...
LOL
My favorite kubrick movie is full metal jacket. Maybe you should try that one.
I've seen that, lol I didn't know it was Kubrick. All I remember of it is the blanket party, and that scene still haunts me to this day. Thanks for your suggestion though, I appreciate it. :)
Good lord.
Shut it and you may learn something.
Movies HAVE TO BE self explanatory. Listen, and all will be revealed. But it will go right past you if you're busy blabbing away.
hm, don't like violence or torture in movies. and you have a migraine. my first guess was that you weren't going to like this movie much :)
I think you loved this movie and just pretended not to.
Bahaha
That’s what I think
Hi "Cat Lady." :) Pay no Mind to all the Haters, because I throroughly Enjoyed your All-Too-Adorable *Triggered Reactions*! LOL. :D (As they, To Each His Own.) But i'm Glad you stuck with it and made it Thru to the End. Fini. :)
What a kind thing to say, thank you. :)
Did you hear her say that Alex "hated" the Beethoven score which was used during the aversion therapy films? This film just flew right over her head. She was so worried about the possibility of being offended that she never stopped chattering nervously, stopping and starting the film to tell us how she was handling it so far. No wonder she has migraines. So would I if I had to be around this woman for very long. There was nothing about the significance of this film that she actually "got." Nothing.
Oh my God! Either watch it or don't. Stop being a baby through the whole thing.
The novel is much worse. The movie is the softcore version of the novel.
Great review! you should watch the film Caligula next!
Your video was literally my first reaction to the movie and then i ... loved it. A classic never ages.
I read the book before I watched the movie I think that helps with understanding the slang he uses and the ending (I really loved the book and this movie btw)
Yeah that's usually how it goes, reading the book of a movie usually explains so much. :)
That's my favorite way to do it too, to read the book "and then" watch the movie.
I read the book first, too. There is A LOT of weird slang... but funny. (and referenced in a lot of other media) It reminded me of Watership Down, which has its own mini-dictionary for rabbit language. 🐇
@@BlackavarWD It's the way Burgess came up with the problem of what language would be spoken in this unspecified future.
The book is amazing but disgusting quite frankly lmao
@@MoviesMoveMe Why not just turn the movie off if you don't like it?
i agree. i completely despise blood-splatter films, torture porn and unklillable seriel killer crap. but that's NOT this film. this film is a social commentary on what the future holds for humanity if it continues down its path violence and self destruction. and what this film warned us against IS WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW! the cultural worship of guns and violence has led us to almost daily mass-murders.
so, like "1984," and many other novels and movies, the warnings of the wise from the past has been completely discarded in favor of corporate police-state oppression and social violence on a GLOBAL SCALE! so, the question is - when the hell are we going to learn from the past? and create a better present and future FOR EVERYONE! not just the most vile and corrupt among us?
I love the movie, but I understand why some people can find it difficult to watch. It’s still an achievement in film making.
If you're going to talk the whole time, watch Eraserhead
you cannot say you love movies/7th art if you are not willing to watch all kind of movies.
People, this is her honest first take. I've seen too many fake fanfare reactions that just plays to fanboys.
Duuuuude!!! Thank you so much for this comment!!! :D
Cheers!!!
@@MoviesMoveMe It's all good. The world needs different views. However, I do think that overtime, the movie's dialogue, the paradoxial composition of the story/score, and the dark yet realistic portrayal of politics and government will make a deep impression on you and bubble up in your reflections of the world over time. Many Kubrick movies are not easy to digest on the first pass, but ages so well on each and every subsquent watching. Believe me, you will want to watch this movie over and over in the coming the years. You should try Barry Lyndon, Dr. Strangelove, 2001, and Full Metal Jacket as some point.
I appreciate that's shes honest. However if you are so against certain stuff in films find out before hand if the film has that stuff in it. Otherwise you will just be negative the whole way through and that can get tedious .
@@matthewbishop8395 Agreed, lol I've still got a lot to learn about what movies to pick. I took a gamble by going in all blind, lol and it didn't pay off in this case.
But anyway thanks for your comment. :)
Thank you!!
You should persist with this one though sweetie. It’s really good once the shocking content eases up. This review was funny though ngl. Definitely gained a new subscriber with this one, hun. This is Stanley Kubrick’s best work though imo. Although eyes wide shut is a close second for me.
Thanks for your kind comment. :)
I totally respect everyone's opinions and if people liked this movie, I just didn't like it (at all, lol).
Thanks for your comment though, and thanks for subscribing yay glad to have you as part of the channel now! :D
"Especially if got some long rape scenes..." Ohhh...nooo.... LOL..
In the end Alex mentions having dreams that people were coming in and messing around with his Gulliver (head/brain) but the governor brushed it off... then during the press scene his eyes roll up and he starts drooling while dreaming of the R and ultra violence he loves... i think he was lobotimized which made him a vegetable in the end
The dreams were doctors coming in to reverse the treatment he got, so he could get his free will back. He was agreeing to pretend to be cured when in truth it was all fake.
Oh dear.
At the 5:07 mark Steven Spielberg gives his thoughts on A Clockwork Orange: ruclips.net/video/Rd97Og-20Yc/видео.html
Oh thanks! I didn't see this til just now. Thanks for giving the time stamp too, I just watched it. Lol and I didn't know that The Shining was Kubrick until watching that interview with Spielberg, lol. Thanks for sharing. :)
You're welcome Ms. :)
THANK YOU CHURCH LADY, MAY I HAVE ANOTHER?
OMFG! *How* *long* do we have to listen to you ask *how* *long* you have to watch this?
Or tell us you don't know *how* *long* you're going to make it!
I don't know how long *I'm* gonna make it. It's very meta.
(I'm at 11 minutes)
Bahaha, sorry yo, just giving my honest reaction. I totally get it if you quit at any moment or give it a thumbs down, lol (this was definitely a cringey reaction for me as well as anyone watching me, hahaha).
"OMFG!" lol your comment is cracking me up, lol.
@@MoviesMoveMe
Thanks! I'm just giving my honest reaction. It's very meta. 😅😅😅
@@BlackavarWD I'll have to look up what meta means, I'm not familiar with that, lol. Also, how come you can leave emojis??? I haven't been able to figure out how to do that.
@@MoviesMoveMe
If you download a *keyboard* *app* you can customize it. But first Google *which* apps are the best (to avoid viruses and other problems)
@@BlackavarWD Aww thanks! :D
My cousin and I grew up fairly fundamental, and we once as kids we stayed up late to watch this on Showtime. By the second rape scene, my cousin yorked in his Apple Jacks. Good times....
"Sucks that they're police when they're horrible people."
Have you considered being less of a stuffy prude?
LOL I know I seemed that way, I promise not all my reactions are this way!!! Haha which, I only have a couple reactions so far b/c I'm brand new lol. Yeah with this movie, that first rape scene did me in (rape scenes always hit me at my core), so this whole movie was a hard watch for me (and since I'm wanting to give an honest reaction, I didn't hide that), BUT I totally completely respect that this is a classic for a lot of ppl and that's totally cool! :D
I'm a firm believer that when it comes to movies, "to each their own". :)
Haha, if you don't care about any of this response and just wanna tell me to fuck off lol that's okay.
But I still wish you Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (lol and I'm saying that sincerely, not sarcastically hahaha).
Peace!!! :D
I love movies move me!!! I love this channel, keep going and thank you for inspiring me ✨
@@_madi_davis Awww thanks girl! :D Wow you're so sweet aawwww!!! :D I appreciate you!! And as far as any negative comments, I've been wanting and preparing to do RUclips for years, and I've known that there's always going to be people who don't like some (or all) of what you do, and that's okay. :) My motto, lol, is to let positive comments inspire me, negative comments to grow from, and that the source of what I do comes from "me" and no one else.
Yay I'm so inspired by you!!! Keep doing what you're doing!!! And make sure that your core strength and inspiration comes from "you" and no one else, and everything that comes after that (all negative/positive comments and everything else) only serve to help you grow. :D
MERRY CHRISTMAS MADISON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Glad we're both getting to know another person trying to do this awesome RUclips thing haha. :D
The book is amazing. The UK version has all 21 chapters. The US version has 20 and was censored.
