Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

When a rogue air force general sets a nuclear attack in motion, a British officer, the U.S. president and a roomful of military leaders scramble to stop it. Their efforts unfold across a military base, a bomber and a tense war room, as the crisis exposes the absurdity and danger of paranoia-driven decisions.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy sharp, dark political comedy that finds absurdity in a serious crisis; not for you if you prefer straightforward drama or subtle humor, and it shares a satirical streak with M*A*S*H.
