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.

Still, this movie has a lot more to teach one about the role of Karma and gangs when one can stay with the movie and follow the plot. For, when one begins to see a dramatic reversal in the lead character, one can almost envision how the next days of his life are going to play out. As, one can quickly see, the character is going to be reconnecting with a few people from his present life, people he may not want to reconnect with based on crimes committed before experimental treatment had been completed.

Regardless, this movie is one which many people try to analyze over and again in relation to the characters and whether Alex, the lead, is either good or evil, whether he is a victim or a villain. For, while the crimes which his gang committed were brutal, others have also indicated that the individuals administering the program beyond his will along with their tactics is clearly torture. Which do you believe? For, only oneself can answer such a questioned based on their own ideologies behind good and evil or right and wrong.

Throughout the film, the character develops into an almost believably honest human being, which one even though having seen the crimes which he committed, almost feels sad that he is going through so much torture. Whereas others, believe he deserves every moment of the pain behind the torture being administered in the film. Either way, the answer to whether or not such treatment for Alex was good or bad for his future, remains unknown except within the minds of each individual having seen the film. For, this is one movie one may want to spend some time analyzing shortly after seeing.

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.

To this end, there are a lot of valuable lessons which can be learn from A Clockwork Orange about crime, gangs and Karma, all of which play a vital role in the universal laws of reality. For, whether one believes in Karma or not, generally one gets back the energy one gives out. To this end, most individuals have good and bad days. However, it is those individuals who take it to the next level and take their frustrations out on the innocent which are the ones most commonly effected by Karma and other such ideologies.
