IMHO yes. It will help you understand more pop culture references, it’s a classic cult film; the characters change and disband at one point they don’t stay the same and “grow up”. The soundtrack is pretty good.

Which would you recommend the movie or the book ?

If you can stand some uncomfortable scenes and general “Kubrick-weirdness,” and want an excellent social commentary on dehumanization and corruption, then yes. Although I have heard a lot of people prefer the book if you’d rather read it.
Everyone prefers the books because a movie is never going to stand up to the custom made fantasy you created in your head
Depends. Do you enjoy watching rape and torture for entertainment? Then by all means… Enjoy some “art”
That’s kinda where I landed having first watched it in 2020. It was just… Meh. The argument that it’s a display of humanity never changing sounds like the same level of reasoning used to justify George Lucas’ bikini slave plot or Quentin Tarantino cramming in feet and n***** into any scene he can. Or I think Ryan Murphy only having rape as the signifier of bad people (or Brad Falchuk? American Horror Story et al)
Really nothing else ? I am getting positive reviews from the sub i originally posted .
This is just my opinion. I am triggered by rape, so my experience of vomiting and shivering in the corner has colored my opinion. Perhaps you will just laugh like my friends did when the many rape scenes play out. I liked the joke abut the power meter. Then I got sick, threw up and blacked out. Would not recommend.
