Dorathen Better Late Then Never

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

adonis98-743-186503 An insane general triggers a path to nuclear holocaust that a War Room full of politicians and generals frantically tries to stop. Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is a 1964 Comedy starring Peter Sellers and it's directed by once again Stanley Kubrick. Now this movie is well written and has some pretty good cinematography alongside some very good looking special effects for it's time but unfortunately i found the pacing to be totally off and the story dare i say a bit boring alongside the comedy which was pretty weird. The perfomances were ok but nothing special about it and dare i say the movie was pretty meh in the end. (5/10)

remakesramistake The year is 1964. The world is starting to regain his consciousness fro WW2 and just entered the Cold War era. People are full of fear about the nuclear war. And in those days were the American film industry was launching movies about spies and Russian espionage, one of the greatest (if not the greatest) movie director of all time creates also a movie about nuclear war only this one is a bit... different. "Dr. Strangelove" is not a film that glorifies America neither Russia. Is a film that satires both this countries and the "ideology" of war in general. Peter Sellers is doing one of the best performances of his whole carrier in his triple role in the film; As group captain Lionel Mandrake a British RAF exchange soldiers who has the bad luck of being locked in the same room with the maniac that launched the attack, as President of the United States Merkin Muffley and Dr. Strangelove a former Nazi and now nuclear war expert. All three of this roles are presented excellent from one of the most talented actors ever. All of them are caricatures and are mocking the principles that each one represent. Also we have an amazing performance by George C. Scott in the role of General Buck Turgidson an aggressive and jingoist Chief of Staff. But this is not a movie which is only worthy for the performances. The topic is so modern even for today's standards that makes this film so accurate is almost scary. While it's a comedic film it is not funny. It's hilarious of course because of the characters and the amazing dialogue, but in the back of your mind you know that it's not the characters that you are laughing with but the human stupidity. And there's a lot of human stupidity in this film. Watch it, have fun, but above all think.

candykubik I wanted to watch this film because I was interested in famous movies by some famous directors. Found Stanley Kubrick, cause I don't know about him much, and began to watch "Dr. Strangelove..." in English with English subs. I understood all the stuff that was happening: nuclear bombs thrown on Soviet Union, some warriors, presidents, an ambassador from USSR(who was a stereotypical Communist, atheist and was awfully looking, the actor who played him couldn't speak Russian at all, and spoke with an awful accent). Secondly, the main protagonists, the US soldiers were speaking about Russians like "they drink only vodka, blah-blah-blah...". Yes, movie was made while the "Cold War was all around, but I didn't enjoy it and dropped in the middle. And there was a moment with a woman ONLY in underwear who spoke on the phone! That was really ridiculous!

Tweetienator Stanley Kubrick really got some of my favorite movies done: Shining, Clockwork Orange, and yes, Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. (Of course, I also like and recommend Paths of Glory, Spartacus, and Full Metal Jacket).George C. Scott as the mad and paranoid Gen.'Buck' Turgidson, and Peter Sellers in his roles (Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake, President Merkin Muffley and Dr. Strangelove) on the road of destroying the planet (and first of all the Sowjetunion!) in a nuclear holocaust.Fine and lots of humor and a satirical sharp view on a world on the verge of madness and destruction - in its finest moments the movie reminds me of the notorious The Life of Brian.That the scientist Dr. Stranglove, who is an adviser to the US President and the generals and maybe the last hope for mankind to stop the ultimate war is obviously an ex-scientist of the Nazi 3rd Reich, is just one of those fine jabs into societies smugness that make this movie grand.
