Viewers find 'Dr. Strangelove' a masterful blend of dark humor and sharp satire, brilliantly directed by Stanley Kubrick. Peter Sellers' performance in multiple roles is particularly praised for its versatility and comedic brilliance. The film's biting critique of military and political incompetence during the Cold War resonates with audiences, though some find its pacing slow and humor dated by modern standards.
👍 Peter Sellers' triple role dazzles.
