Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Stanley Kubrick's classic black comedy about a group of war-eager military men who plan a nuclear apocalypse is both funny and frightening - and seems as relevant today as it was when made. U.S. Air Force Colonel Jack D. Ripper (Sterling Hayden) goes completely and utterly mad, and sends his bomber wing to destroy the U.S.S.R. He suspects that the communists are conspiring to pollute the "precious bodily fluids" of the American people. The U.S. president meets with his advisors, where the Soviet ambassador tells him that if the U.S.S.R. is hit by nuclear weapons, it will trigger a "Doomsday Machine" which will destroy all plant and animal life on Earth. Peter Sellers portrays the three men who might avert this tragedy: British Group Captain Lionel Mandrake, the only person with access to the demented Gen. Ripper; U.S. President Merkin Muffley, whose best attempts to divert disaster depend on placating a drunken Soviet Permier and the former Nazi genius Dr. Strangelove, who concludes that "such a device would not be a practical deterrent for reasons which at this moment must be all too obvious". Will the bombers be stopped in time, or will General Jack Ripper succeed in destroying the world ?

5.0 out of 5 stars really good older movie, May 4, 2007
I stayed away from Dr Strangelove over the years because I had the impression, coming from the 60's & being basically a farce about war it might be some stupid hippy-dippy type film. I was totally off the mark. I happened to catch A&E's bio of George C Scott & a clip of his performance in this film was shown. It was brief but funny enough to spark an interest. So I purchased a copy , it was worth it , this is a classic.
