As usual the book shits all over the movie, however the movie is fantastic. This just goes to show how good the book is

I hate that comment, I'm sorry. I don't hate you or anything it's just that, that comment always comes when movie is made from a book. I personally believe you cant compare film and literature. Its like comparing apples and oranges. They are 2 different mediums both with positive characteristics.

However, without the music I don't think It would be as good.

This movie officially turned "Singing in the rain" into a sick song.

Thats like what Jim Gaffigan says in his stand-up.

" You know what I liked better about the movie?" There was no reading....

i recomend all to see it. ( i havent seen so many tities in a movie thats not a porno ever)

at the very moment i thought "milk bar" i got a squirt of wine in the eye as i took a drink.....

Take a read of Anthony Burgess' novel from which Kubrick got his script. Well worth reading, if for nothing else than the joy of invented linguistics that Burgess uses throughout.

hmmm....it's a difficult read with the flipping back and forth in order to understand the language....much like bronte.....

yea crazy movie. I hear when it came out it was like X rated, too much violence and nudity for its time. Pretty tame by todays standards.

This would sharpen you up, and make you ready for a bit of the ol' ultra violence
