Movie Reviews of Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Special Edition)

Movie Review: I learned to love the Bomb.
Summary: 5 Stars

Extraordinary film in the true comic sense. Peter Sellers best film ever. George C. Scott is amazing. Sterling Haden plays the part to a Tee. I'll be watching it again before you can say "Blast Off".

Summary of Dr. Strangelove or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (Special Edition)

STANLEY KUBRICK'S BRILLIANT CLASSIC IS THE PERFECT SHOWCASE FOR THE VERSATITLITY OF PETER SELLERS, WHO TAKES ON THREE DISTINCTIVE ROLES IN THE FILM. FUNNY AND FRIGHTENING, THIS BLACKCOMEDY ABOUT A GROUP OF MILITARY MEN WHO PLAN A NUCLEAR APOCALYPSE SEEMS AS RELEVANT TODAY AS EVER.
Arguably the greatest black comedy ever made, Stanley Kubrick's cold-war classic is the ultimate satire of the nuclear age. Dr. Strangelove is a perfect spoof of political and military insanity, beginning when General Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden), a maniacal warrior obsessed with "the purity of precious bodily fluids," mounts his singular campaign against Communism by ordering a squadron of B-52 bombers to attack the Soviet Union. The Soviets counter the threat with a so- called "Doomsday Device," and the world hangs in the balance while the U.S. president (Peter Sellers) engages in hilarious hot-line negotiations with his Soviet counterpart. Sellers also plays a British military attach? and the mad bomb-maker Dr. Strangelove; George C. Scott is outrageously frantic as General Buck Turgidson, whose presidential advice consists mainly of panic and statistics about "acceptable losses." With dialogue ("You can't fight here! This is the war room!") and images (Slim Pickens's character riding the bomb to oblivion) that have become a part of our cultural vocabulary, Kubrick's film regularly appears on critics' lists of the all-time best. --Jeff Shannon
