MAN OF CINEMA
Kubrick was a mad genius who dared to make anti war satire/parody on cold war.
He literally mocked every power in the United States who are war mongerers. And to this day this film holds the value, because it is so funny and so relevant. He shows the people who behave like they know everything and they can take decisions on behalf of millions of innocent citizens who are actually just crazy, stupid and nutjobs. Kubrick placed some wacky characters played by dramatic genre actors, that's the beauty of this film. They look serious, but they are just plain stupid. I loved the physical effects/cinematography, its surreal. The brilliance of writing hides in picking out funny elements from rather dark and sad saga centered around nuclear warfare. I was just laughing my ass out when the major was riding the bomb like a cowboy. It can't get better than that. Even the dialogues are hilarious, the sequences which take place in the war room. I loved the background score when planes marched for bombing, a patriotic score plays, but the reality was those soldiers were clueless and dumb and they were marching toward their death. It is one of the best satire films out there.
