Stunning. Kubrick at his sublime best!

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2007)

Seriously. One of THE great films of all time: Sellers is at his absolute best, playing all roles from the (allegeldy) Werner von Braun-inspired Dr Strangelove to the delightfully "English" Group Captain Mandrake. His performance certainly rivals Alec Guinness' sublime performance in Kind Hearts, if not comprehensively relegating it to an "also ran". Kubrick's direction (as always) is firing on all cylinders: a damning indictment of the futility of "the bomb" and a cutting commentary on the politics of the Cold War era. If you haven't seen it, put aside 96 minutes of your life and watch it now. You won't regret a second. I promise!
