its an OK movie, but is pretty tame by todays standards
great classic movie - kubrick has gotta be one of the best director's ever - it may be tame by today's violence stanards but it actually uses the violence to comment, not just entertain

I've never seen the movie, however it's one of the best books I've ever read.
