This was pretty fucking great, definitely in Kubrick's top 3.
Why did it get so much shit from the audiences? I think it's one of his most accessible films.

>Kubrick's top 3
1. 2001: A Space Odyssey
2. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb
3. Barry Lyndon

Clockwork orange is easily his second best firum

it was marketed as an erotic drama at Kubrick's insistence, but it's actually a deconstruction of the typical premises of an erotic drama: Tom never fucks anyone at any point in the film, and the theme of the story is that sex without a personal relationship is totally impersonal.
It was an intentional bait-and-switch. It's a great film but it's in total opposition to how sex is depicted in today's permissive society.
Paths of Glory?

EWS Barry and Strangelove
clockwork 2001 paths of glory and FMJ are tier 2
>Why did it get so much shit from the audiences?
The film was promoted like a sexual thriller that would have lots of nude scenes with Nicole Kidman:

No joke, I remember seeing the above teaser before the South Park movie in 1999.
In the end, it was so tame and slow for mainstream tastes already familiar with Basic Instinct and Fatal Attraction and Disclosure.

Are you an absolute fucking moron? I'm asking this question seriously because never in my whole life have I ever seen such a fucking dumb opinion. Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that you were on /tv/, I'd expect you to be a severely mentally-retarded kid because your opinion here is literally down-syndrome level. It is, by far, the most stupidest fucking thing I've ever read here. And I'm sure everyone else here is confused by it too because they probably can't work out how a down-syndromed kid managed to find his way to /tv/. But you did. And now we have to put up with your stupid fucking opinion being in this thread to only cause further confusion for those who stumble upon it. Thanks a whole fucking lot. I hope you and your shit stupid opinion fall in a fire and die. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

it was great indeed.
guess people were expecting something else.
i just saw it for the first time ever last year, it instantly became one of my favorite movies of all time.
i heard many complaints about the smoking weed scene near the beginning of the movie, claiming their portrayal of high people was off, which it indeed was, but it wasnt a big deal.
even tho the ending was kind of sudden, goddamn this movie was riveting.
