I've never seen 'A Clockwork Orange' it always seemed to me to be the type of movie I'd hate but I might give it a try

Although, to be fair, if I was going to make a list of the top ten worst films I'd ever seen, there'd be some American films in that too. And they'd all be bloody romcoms.

That genre is like a film version of a Soap Opera, it repeats the same stuff over and over again with the same endings, good fun if you take them for what they are I suppose.
