The Ultimate Black Comedy
16 February 2001 | by justusmcqueen – See all my reviews
Few films are able to take a deadly serious issue and place it within the context of a broad comedy successfully. Dr. Strangelove does exactly that. Kubrick's masterpiece illustrates in brilliant fashion the idiocy of nuclear war and the idiots who are orchestrating it.
What strikes one most however in this cinematic gem are the individual characterisations of Sellers, Scott, Hayden and Pickens. To refer to them as memorable roles is a gross understatement. With names such as President Merkin Muffley, General "Buck" Turgidson, General Jack D. Ripper and Major T.J. "King" Kong, you know that these characters will not be soon forgotten.
Other features of the film such as the remarkably designed "war room" set, the hand-held camera techniques employed by Kubrick and the black and white cinematography of Gilbert Taylor only add to the power and impact of "Strangelove." Quite simply, the greatest American film by the greatest American director.

Can't re-watch it again
I was 13-14 when I watched this movie. It's a long movie if I recall it correctly. I was so moved by it's theme, so I watched it all. I had strong feelings of sadness and sympathy towards little robot David that wanted to be a real child and to have a mom to love him. And that little bear ... I cried during some scenes. I don't ...
This Is Why U.S. & Israeli Air Forces Are the Deadliest Team in the Sky
When U.S. and Israeli pilots train together, it’s not just another military exercise — it’s preparation for wars that could reshape the Middle East. From Israeli F-35 Adir stealth fighters to American B-52 strategic bombers, this partnership represents one of the most lethal combinations in modern air warfare.
In this video, we break down why US Israeli joint air force training goes far beyond diplomacy. You’ll learn how Israeli F-35 combat experience — earned in real hostile airspace — feeds directly into American tactics during elite exercises like Red Flag, Blue Flag, and Juniper Oak. These drills simulate the exact threats both nations may face, including advanced air defenses, underground bunkers, and long-range strike missions tied to Iran deterrence.
We explore how B-52 Israeli air force exercises signal ...
