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

This is an earlier film expressing the worry about the destruction of mankind caused by nuclear war. Under the seemingly cynical narrative, it is full of concern for the fate of mankind and contains a deep sense of worry. (by) 
"Dr. Strange Love" is the first of three films that Kubrick has made philosophical thinking about the future of mankind, and it is also his wake-up call for all mankind. With his customary narrative style, unique shooting skills and black humorous irony, this film has become a rare classic in film history. Just as some people have commented, questioning whether "Doctor Strange Love" is a classic is like questioning whether "Mona Lisa" is a famous painting. () 
With all human beings as the ultimate goal, American comedy films have been brought into a whole new field. () 
Kubrick’s comedy is more deadly than nuclear waste dumps, at least it killed us with laughter. This is one of the best anti-war statements in film history, and it’s undoubtedly the most funny. ()

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

  • President Merkin Muffley: [on phone with Dmitri] No. No, Dimitri, there must be some mistake. No, I'm certain of that. I'm perfectly certain of that, Dimitri. Just a second.

    [puts down phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: You know what he says? He says that one of the planes hasn't turned back. He says according to information forwarded by our air staff, it's headed for the missile complex at Lapuda.

    General "Buck" Turgidson: Why...

    [laughs incredulously]

    General "Buck" Turgidson: That's impossible, Mr. President. I mean, look at the big board! Thirty-four planes, thirty recalls acknowledged, and four splashes, and one of them was targeted for Lapuda!

    President Merkin Muffley: Dimitri? Look, we've got an acknowledgement from every plane except the four you've shot down.

    [beat]

    President Merkin Muffley: Oh. Oh.

    [puts down the phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: He says...

    [realizes Dimitri's still on the line, brings it back up]

    President Merkin Muffley: Hang on a second, Dimitri.

    [covers phone]

    President Merkin Muffley: He says their air staff now only claims three aircraft confirmed. The fourth may only be damaged.

    General "Buck" Turgidson: [narrows eyes, looks suspicious] Mr. President, I'm beginning to smell a big, fat Commie rat! I mean, supposin' Kissov is lying about that fourth plane, just lookin' for an excuse to clobber us. I mean, if the spaghetti hits the fan, now, we're in trouble.

  • President Merkin Muffley: [on the phone with the Soviet Premier] I guess you're just going to have to get that plane, Dimitri. Dimitri, I'm sorry that jamming your radar and flying so low; but, they're trained to do it. You know, it's - it's initiative!
