Comments
- Selim: what a welcome return for such an unsettling film still holds up in my opinion
- Leov: love the push to get us re-examining kubrick, but i still can't shake off that it's a slog - what are some of y'all's favorite
- Vera: love how they frame it as 'unpleasant' - like that's what makes it stick with you
- Reyesmarek: surprised it took this long for kubrick's scifi to come back around
- Wraith Sable: not sure how i feel about this being back on streaming, feels kinda tone-deaf given its problematic content 🙅♂️
- Elin: you'd think with 55 years under its belt, the satire would've softened a bit but it still hits hard
- Void Beacon: haven't watched it in years but i still get weirded out by the roxanne section
- Kian: what's wild is how its visuals still hold up today despite the gritty subject matter
- Shadow Sparrow: unconvinced to watch Kubrick's dystopian vision again, but i'll take a pass
- Leo: only thing keeping me from calling this a 10/10 is the way it just drops you into Alex's world without warning at the start
- Arlo: I've had nightmares from that film since I was a teenager
- Crimson Talon: you'd think a 55 year reevaluation would bring some new insights instead of just repeating the same tired takes
- Luna: never really understood why people still get hung up on Alex's violence despite how obvious a commentary it is
- Iron Cipher: watched A Clockwork Orange with my friends right before the festival circuit for Phantom 701
