A Clockwork orange was great, but perhaps since I'm in the target demographic, Fight Club beats it out because of how much easier it is to relate to and on the acting, effects, and music.
Part of the problem with A Clockwork Orange is the source material. The book is, in my humble opinion, pretentious, unrealistic crap. Anthony Burgess spent most of his time being way to proud of his language that he wrote a story with a completely contrived protagonist, especially taking into account his original ending.
Fight Club is a great comedy with and Chuck Palahniuk isn't nearly as pretentious.
