The violence we see is the violence of those who no longer care what that word means. The only science fiction thing about it is that it takes place in the future. Sometimes this movie is called science fiction. The manipulative, controlling, anything for 'me' society is just being formed. Pardon my diatribe, but what Alex and his droogs are doing isn't all that out of the ordinary these days.

Our young people are beginning to band together in little covens, the cell phone and the computer creating little worlds where anonymity can lead to diminution of what is good. Our politics are beginning to diminish the individual rights and safety of our citizens.

We are slowly moving away from conventional morality and playing with forms of nihilism. There will be a lot of Alexes in the future there already are. It is the product of the desensitized world that we see unfolding before us in the beginning of the 21st century. In the hands of Stanley Kubrick, it comes to life. Having read Anthony Burgess's novel years ago and working my way through the amazingly creative, futuristic dialogue, I really looked forward to seeing the movie.
