A hilarious perspective on the reality of war

Rating: Null/10 (5 April 2004)

What a film.
Dr. Strangelove (or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb)is a work of comedic genius. It tells the story of the weapons race between the United States and the Soviet Union, with an added twist. If the Soviet Union becomes the losing opponent, then the "doomsday machine" will be activated and all life on Earth would be destroyed, while a B-52 is currently underway to drop the bomb that could spell certain doom to all living things.
This film is pure comedic fantasy, intermxing real life situations and fictional situations between two secretly warring factions. Almost every character in the film added some sort of comedic genius equivalent to any Jim Carrey movie.
This Reviewer gives this film a 7 out of 10 (10 being the highest) for it's origianality to a real life situation and it's ability to make even the most humor deprived person sneak out a chuckle or guffaw. It's no wonder that this film is ranked so high on AFI's top list of best movies and should be influential to many future comedies in generations to come.
