It was a fun evening, but the film was just "eh" for me. Actually, I would've liked it quite a bit more without the distracting Peter Sellers as Dr. Strangelove. IMO, he overplayed that part to extreme, although it would be hard to play that character straight and be effective. But, I now see the inspiration for Dr. Scott in RHPS.
Sellers' other characters were wonderful - especially the President. "Yes, Dimitri." Overall, it was a wierd, disjointed film and not up there with my othr Kubrick favorites. I WOULD rather watch Eyes Wide Shut on continious look than see this film - but I'd prefer Lolita.
