This movie is straight up trash.


Oh, I "get it". And I've seen it 3 times to try to give it the benefit of the doubt.

It's just plain boring and absurd.

And you're a straight up moron.

My god! what a complete knob you look in that hat LOL

How ignorant can you possibly be? This film is actually a masterpiece and maybe if you got your head out your arse and realised the sub-context of EVERY scene, then you would understand how incredible it is.

reply

ugh....

MOVIES ARE NOT ART. THEY ARE ENTERTAINMENT MEANT TO MAKE MONEY. STOP BEING A PRETENTIOUS LIBERAL.

reply

Of course moves are art! Movies are created with hundreds of different people at the helm and these hundreds of people put in a ridiculous amount of hours to put together a piece of ART that people then sit back and appreciate for a few hours.

It's art, you're wrong. Just as writing a book is a form of art.

reply

Tarantino said in an interview recently that movies are the working man's artform 

I like that expression.

English isn't my 1st language. I'm sorry for any mistakes in grammar, spelling...

The fact that you told him to get his head out of his arse is so ironic and funny. My god, the more of a Kubrick fan you are the more pretentious you are, it seems.

I disagree. I think the movie has a lot of important things to say, and I think the movie says those things in an interesting and artistic way that is unique to movies.

You not liking it is one thing but the film is a undoubtedly a masterpiece. Maybe try reading the book.

You are an idiot. No changing that issue . I was around when this was made and it was made for a political reason you idiot. Have you seen Sean Connery in Zardoz? If not maybe you shou;d it was before this movie. You think you know so much ...you know nothing of classic films that made films what they are today!!!!!!!!!!

It has nothing to do with people nowadays. You don't know how old the OP is. The context of the movie is what speaks to people and if someone doesn't like it that doesn't make them a moron. It does however make morons out of those who bash others opinions that don't agree with their own

reply

I agree. Everyone carries on about how great it is, so I excitedly rented it and prepared to be blown away. About a quarter way through I was like, "Ohh... It has shlongs, boobs, and rape. No wonder the fanbase is primarily men."
I don't care much about what deep underlying meaning you think it's trying to convey. The bare bones of it is that you get to see titties. If the message had been presented some other way, you'd be uninterested.

reply

I digress, the internet is full of everything that you have said makes men like this film,so why would men love this film for the breasts and violence, when it is everywhere? People like this film because we see past the superficial cover of it and focus on the messages and underlying themes

I watch porn for the "Breasts"... I watch ACO for its examination of Society and how it treats criminals amongst many other things. How many of the scenes that are discussed are actually THAT bad? Most of it is all off camera.

Me, too. It bored me to death. Notice how you upset the "fans" of the movie cause you don't like it? Immaturity.

movies are subjective. if he thinks its trash then it is
