Not Funny.

Rating: 3/10 (4 April 2016)

I love Stanley Kubrick. He is, in my opinion, one of the best directors of all time. I'll admit that the riding-the-bomb scene at the end was classic and iconic. But I did not find this movie funny. before i watched it, i was thinking: "okay, it's a black comedy movie about nuclear war in the 60s. dark humor, but will be funny, based on all th people saying it's the best comedy ever." I'm watching it, and just thinking: "this is a serious war drama. This is not funny. " George C. Scott was probably supposed to be funny, but I thought he was just mean. Peter Sellers did some great acting, but not comedic acting. There were definitely some really good moments, but most of the film was trash. It was NOT FUNNY!!! What I'm saying is, it is a terrible comedy, and an average movie. Kubrick's other films were masterpieces, but this was below the bar. Monty Python is funny. Mel Brooks movies are funny. Airplane! is funny. Now THAT'S a real disaster comedy! Overall, this film is mediocre at best, and i think it has not aged well. This may have been edgy and even funny in the 60's, but I think everyone giving this a super positive review is just jumping on the critic bandwagon that apparently thinks this movie is a classic comedy. IT IS NOT A COMEDY!!!!!
