What more can be said about this film then what has already been said for the last 44 years? Amazing? Brilliant? Hilarious? There just aren't enough adjectives in the english dictionary to explain my love for this film. This has always been my favorite Kubrick film and always will be. It blends so many perfect elements of cinema in one film. Peter Sellers is absolutely brilliant in all 3 of his roles in this film, George C. Scott plays a hilarious military director and the whole cast of this movie is great. Also Slim Pickens as Major King Kong has the classic shot of him riding the nuclear bomb
Every single shot of this film just screams how great Kubrick is. From the little subtile things like the Colonel's name being "Bat" Guano meaing bat shit to Dr. Strangelove fighting his right arm to not do the nazi salute.Watch this movie, you will laugh and be intrigued and even learn something about how great cinema is made.
Colonel "Bat" Guano: Okay. I'm gonna get your money for ya. But if you don't get the President of the United States on that phone, you know what's gonna happen to you?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: What?
Colonel "Bat" Guano: You're gonna have to answer to the Coca-Cola company.
10/10
