Some movies are about love and romance, others are about heartbreak over failure with regards to success, A Clockwork Orange is about neither. For this film focuses on the violent acts of a futuristic gang led by a lad that goes by the name of Alex and his options later, once his actions became known. In addition, these crimes are brutally violent, especially for such a long running film.
However, one can find ways to escape the main issue on the screen relating to violence by focusing on one of the many colorful objects set in the backdrop in nearly every scene of the movie. Also, because sadly some of the criminal events in this film have become far more common since the nineteen seventies, even today many people find this movie a difficult choice, especially those having been victims of such crimes in the past.
As a matter of fact, sometimes individuals have asked if this movie has had an impact on the development and popularity of gangs. However, as Al Capone can attest, gangs were around long before A Clockwork Orange. So, while no is the most likely answer, this does not mean that other criminally minded individuals may not use the images and plot in a negative way with regards to such behavior.
However, if one follows the plot and stays with the movie, one can see a dramatic reversal in realities take place. In many cases, such incidents relate to the ideology behind Karma and the events we go through in life. These include events related to both past lives and present conditions. So, before watching this film, one may want to know there are themes of rape, murder, nudity, sexism and other violent imaging involved in the criminal acts which are blatant and visible to anyone watching. In addition, if one is watching the newest release which has been digitally enhanced, one may also want to realize that these graphic images come to life with better believability as well as color.
Still, this is one movie that most individuals must analyze for oneself with regards as to whether the main character Alex is a villain or victim. This is because while crimes he committed were horrendous, others have also intervened with his destiny by placing him in an experimental program, somewhat beyond his control. However, he did have a choice as to whether to serve the fourteen years jail time, or accept treatment, which most anyone would do if it means escaping jail to pay the price for crimes one has committed. Therefore, the answer to this question becomes more complicated over time and one each individual must answer for oneself.
As for Karma, as with any other ideology or religion today, there are many who believe and many who do not. For those that believe however, many see an extremely strong correlation between Karma and events in this film. However, when considering the effects of Karma, one may also want to consider that Karma can also provide great gifts to those who attempt a generous, good and gracious life as well as providing lessons to those who do not.
Therefore, one need also look at the other ways in which Karma can effect one in life while watching the film. For example, in one situation, the movie keeps returning Alex to his past, over and over again during recovery, which no doubt can also hold one back from healing. Thus, always returning Alex to a point where he had betrayed someone or invaded their home, often beyond their will. At one point, it appears one such individual does not remember Alex, until later when realizing he and his wife had been attacked by him and his gang. Often, many individuals discover that it is the these quieter moments in this film that are the most powerful with regards to communicating a message to the audience about good and evil or right and wrong.
Therefore, while A Clockwork Orange is a rather brutally violent film, one can learn a great deal about both karma and gangs with regards to universal law. Because whether or not one believes in such ideology, most individuals believe in Justice, and when it comes right down to it, are not one and the two basically the same? However, Karma can also be a wonderful experience and something to celebrate in life if one has lived as good and honest a life as possible based on such a belief system. To this end, the movie does a great job of communicating such to a wide audience which may be effected either positively or negatively by such a film, depending upon life experience.
