If I were to recognize this film as a work of 'genius', then I would be making allusions to my own ability to identify genius, thus implying a capacity to relate to what it is to actually possess genius. It would hence be If I were to recognize this film as a work of 'genius', then I would be making allusions to my own ability to identify genius, thus implying a capacity to relate to what it is to actually possess genius. It would hence be impossible for me to express my feelings on this film without seeming a bit pretentious. But is it not pretentious to fear appearing pretentious? In the end, I simply can't betray my desire to praise this film, even if it means I'm a pretentious genius. So be warned; watching this film will forever transform you into a pretentious genius (or a critic), if you are not already a member of that caste. It is that powerful. And there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.… Expand

This was the most disturbing movie, I have ever seen. The ending was quickly done, while some comedic elements existed, nothing to keep the movie going.

One of the funniest movies I think I have ever seen, Dr Strangelove remains fresh and consistenly hilarious almost fourty years on. A must see, and definitely one of my personal faves. You must see it.

I was too confused to really like it. it didn't make sense, maybe it would to ppl who knew about the war and all that stuff back then, but i don't. i admired it alot though, and there was some very good genius moments of comedy.

What an over rated movie! I give it a 5 only because I love most of Kubrick's work. If you want the real deal, without the comedy, catch Sydney Lumet's Fail Safe.

Ok Kubrick is a marvellous director but please do not deny Sellers his just reward. He was the greatest comedy genius of all time and there will never be anybody like him again.
