Brilliant! Sellers, Scott and Hayden are simply perfect!

Rating: 10/10 (2 October 2003)

"Dr. Strangelove" is a very black comedy spoofing such things as patriotism, paranoia, and nuclear war. The plot focuses on Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) and Buck Turgidson (George C. Scott), who mastermind a plan to create a nuclear holocaust and destroy the "Ruskies". Behind it is Dr. Strangelove (Sellers) and defending the human race are the U.S. President (Sellers) and Ripper's officer Mandrake (Sellers). The trio of roles by Sellers is simply hilarious, not to mention Scott and Hayden's A+ performances.
The screenplay and direction are also remarkable, in fact, that word sums up a whole review: remarkable, 9/10.
