The Death of Stalin

After a Soviet dictator dies, his wary inner circle scrambles to seize power and protect themselves. Their frantic maneuvering mixes absurd, often bungling political games with the threat of repression, as no one can be sure who is running the government.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like dark political satire, rapid-fire scheming, and humor set against serious history; Not for you if you prefer light comedy or find jokes alongside violence and repression uncomfortable.
