Review of Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964) by Alex A — 01 Jan 2015
Perhaps like most of Kubrick's work, a second viewing will be beneficial. As of right now, being the first time I watched this critically acclaimed black comedy classic, I was pretty underwhelmed by Dr.
Strangelove. It certainly has its funny moments spread around it, wacky characters and great, humorous performances, but subjectively the story wasn't intriguing at all for me which caused the film to drag in places.
Kudos to Stanley nonetheless, for successfully managing to make a comedy out of a terrifying subject matter like a nuclear holocaust.
