Film based on the novel, directed by famed theater director Peter Brook. Stark b&w film and barren setting complement boys' inner emptiness.
Amazing psychological movie with a lot of introspection. Great characterization as well
Watched it at school it was alright, acting was surprisingly good
A classic social commentary on human nature & the disintegration of civilisation into savagery, the child actors carried the film well
The story is pretty the same as the book. not a cinematic masterpiece, but worth to watch
Allows you to see humanity at its most basic level. A must watch.
Not on par with the book, but good in its own right.
It’s a bit slow, but very deep. It shows the importance of power in a society. It makes you think a lot. Even philosophical.
A good adaptation movie while some significant parts are either neglected or superficially portrayed.
Oh, what Kubrick could have done with this. As is, it's quite bloody good 3.5☆'s. No bollocks. Kill the pig! Slit her throat! Bash it in!
