Summary: Maybe it's just me...
Review: I've constantly heard good things about Dr. Strangelove, so I decided to see it a few nights ago. I've seen it through 3 times now, and I still don't understand what's so great about this movie. I was born in 1980, so maybe that has something to do with it, but this movie was not funny to me at all. While viewing the film, I saw clearly all of the parts where a person is supposed to laugh, but I personally found the humor unappealing and bland. The only part I liked was when the guy with the cowboy hat rides the dropping bomb.

Summary: Good wine improves with the years
Review: I saw this movie when it first came out, and I have lost no occasion to watch it again. A superb cast with a supreme director. The hallucinating atmosphere of quickly getting closer and closer to the nuclear holocaust is gripping and, at the same time, one cannot but appreciate the refined Kubrick irony in portraying the characters: Sellers, in a triple role played with his usual elegance; Scott and Hayden as two generals who only differ as to degree of paranoia; and all others. I even found in this CD the song "We'll Meet Again", in Vera Lynn's performance: it begins kind of sirupy as the original version was, but it eventually changes to the somewhat jazzed-up one heard at the end of the movie. It brought back memories of the war years and of the BBC shortwave broadcasts to Italy we used to listen to in clandestine secrecy.

Summary: Make sure you look after your precious bodily fluids!
Review: You'll need every drop of them to keep from splitting your sides as you watch Slim Pickens engage in some rather eccentric bronco busting.

Summary: Reminds me a little of Korea
Review: George C. Scott's character reminds me of Douglas MacArthur. If Truman hadn't fired him, we might have been facing a situation like this in 1951!

Summary: Pure genius.
Review: Stanley Kubrick's side-splitting satire of the cold war and nuclear holocaust is truly a one-of-a-kind film that is absolutely brilliant in every respect. Oddly, this film came out at the same time as the thriller "Fail Safe", and both films are remarkably similar in structure (a B52 wing approaching Russia thinking that the unthinkable has occured), and both films are outstanding."Dr. Strangelove...", however, is so brilliantly conceived and executed that it rivals comparison. It is perfection personified. There is a scene where the 'good' doctor (played by Peter Sellers) is going through his hilarious antics, and visible on the screen is the actor playing the Soviet ambassador. Obviously, Sellers was ad-libbing because this actor cracked up on screen! Usually Kubrick is such a perfectionist that I'm surprised this rewarding mistake made it in the film. One only has to view the part of the film where General Ripper's base is being attacked by U.S. forces to see how realistic this scene was filmed (I doubt one could tell that this wasn't actual battle footage), which sharply contrasts with the comedic-tone of the film and adds greatly to its darkness. Again, perfection. Between 1 and 10, this classic gets the highest possible mark! It is film making at its very best. Sadly, the likes of Stanley Kubrick will never be seen again.

Summary: Both hysterical and sinister...a masterpiece!
Review: I just finished watching Dr.Stangelove for the first time and I am still almost speechless.This film had me almost on the floor laughing at some points...George C. Scott's absurdities and brilliant accompanying facial expressions that help make the film quintessential Kubrick...General Ripper's insane "bodily fluids" obsession...and Peter Sellers absolutely breathtaking perfomance as Dr.Strangelove(and in two other roles)The contrast between the comic war room scenes and the scenes in the plane is just inexplicable. If you haven't seen it, please see this wonderful comedy noir.It's the best film I have ever seen.

Summary: Praise "DR. STRANGELOVE"
Review: It is Kubrick's best and most daring film! The movie gives an excellent insight about the absurdities of war and politics. I give it my ENTHUSTIASTIC THUMBS UP WAY UP WITH A LOT OF ADMIRATION.
