 A Classic Film, Marvelous Translation to Blu-Ray June 13, 2008
M. Bradley (Lost)

I have seen this film dozens of times includin the first run X rated version back in the 70's and this version is stunning. Masterfully translated into digital, this film is a must have for Blu-ray collections.
The content of the film is not for everyone however is not for conservative tastes. Violence, Sex, Profanity and Drug use.

I read the book prior to watching the moview and I must say the movie is right on target.
However I do recomend that people do read the book first (European version) before you watch this movie. It will be a little difficult but well worth it as it will give you a deeper understanding of the main themes presented by the author of this story.
Shocking & Inspirational June 3, 2008

This film is a classic. It addresses the quandry of rehabilitation vs. ethical retribution. Who decides the nature of punishment and the motivation of personal revenge? The concept of "Murder of the Mind" vs. necessary behavior modification? I think that it will make you consider more intimately such questions, and the motivation of the penal system.
Free Will Or Not June 1, 2008

A Clockwork Orange deals profoundly with the concept of free will. Although it is a godless movie, I believe strongly that man was created in the image of an unbridled free-willed Deity, which means he has free-will too albeit much diminished from his Maker. Only G-d has the right to
take away man's moral choice. Capital punishment therefore is immoral.
Punishment in the form of diminishment of choice seems logical.
Although the film eventually glorifies its victim salaciously, the point is made; behaviorism does not solve the evil within man.
Furthermore, the film attacks its very foundation. Alex has to watch Nazi
films while ode to joy is playing on the soundtrack. A people that produce a Beethoven, give us Hitler. Art is worthless.

I hadn't seen A Clockwork Orange since I was a kid. Being able to watch a digitally remastered cut on my 100 inch screen and in 5.1 surround is just such the enhancement!
Me droogs would do well to sign on and buy copies of their own. They're bound to get into less trouble that way than engaging in a bit of the old, ultra-violence!
