"You can't fight in here! This is the War Room!"

Rating: 10/10 (21 April 2010)

Kubrick seems to turn everything he touches into gold and the same goes for "Dr. Strangelove" This film is plagued with fantastic acting, flawless direction, well built/chosen sets, and a timely theme. Kubrick masterfully turns a movie about the Cold War into what he has termed a 'nightmare comedy'. This comedy carries with it a heavy message about how foolish war is and how flawed and foolish the people who start the wars are.
The history behind this film is also very interesting. Many lines were dubbed over and scenes cut out of sensitivity to the sudden Kennedy assassination during filming. Mentions of "Dallas" were dubbed over to "Vegas". The original ending—the pie fight—was taken out all together.
"Dr. Strangelove" is a must see. It is rightfully cemented as a modern classic due to Kubrick's genius.
