A testament to Kubrick's versatility and genius.

Rating: 9/10 (4 July 2001)

It is really astonishing to see how versatile Kubrick really was. Personally i was surprised to see that he could even succeed in comedy, but he does so, excellently i might add. At least as impressive is Peter Sellers in three different roles, each of them brilliantly distinctive and amusing. Pay special attention to Sellers' scene in the phone booth. Also noteworthy are his telephone-conversations with prime-minister Kissoff. In addition i would like to add that the cynical opening and closing credits-scenes are sensational. Watch for the rythmic editing accompanying "Until we meet again."
