Does it feel outdated ? Doesbit have any plot holes ? Is the story , character , character arcs etc. good ?

    You should probably watch the first 15 minutes of it and see if it works for you. I’m not a big Kubrick fan, and I know it wasn’t for me, but it’s a kind of unique movie for sure.

      Completely get what you mean.

      I’ve watched it once and genuinely loved it, but I also have zero desire to ever see it again.

      Rather not pirate and delete a movie without knowing if it has good charecters or plot .

        This is a culturally significant movie that came out fifty years ago, which you’re considering watching even though it came out fifty years ago. I’d say that it probably has good characters and plot.

        But for real: yes, I think it’s a good movie and worth your time. It’s a movie that makes my skin crawl and I feel disgusted in places watching it. Really quite great.

        The potential issue people have with it is indeed the violence, but if it’s okay with you it should be fine. Feel free to post a review once you’ve watched it.

        You can download “in sequential order” just the first X minutes at least with some torrent clients.

        Not sure what to say about Clockwork Orange… it’s not an easy or amusing film to watch. It has some interesting visuals. Part of movie history, so if you’re a film buff you should watch it. Not sure if the themes are still relevant today, it’s kind of a weird film about the nature of violence.
