Yes you could say that is quite the pun in the summary line I used there. Sorry not sorry I guess. But apart from that and me riffing off another users pun (slightly), the movie really knows what it wants to tell us. And while that is never easy to watch, it also never gets boring either.
There is one scene in particular that I myself almost could not recover from. It is so vile, so brutal, that it was shocking and appaling to a degree where I would understand if people would stop watching - and maybe even feel a different, more negative way about the movie. Since I was able to watch Clockwork Orange, I guess I got over that too. Now I'm not comparing those to story wise. But when it comes to violence and how it is being used, I feel you could connect them.
Maybe the only thing that you could attest any similarity between the movies. This is way over the top for sure and not for the faint hearted or squeamish. There is so much violence (any form of it), you might get desensitized about it ... in the movie that is of course! I don't believe after this you'll have to go to anger management. And if you do, it does not have anything to do with the movie. The main character (and others in here) might have been better off, if they had used some of those classes ... but then you'd have a different movie I suppose ... really well made, but also as brutal as it can be ...
