Ratings and reviews

The end (sorry not sorry) ruined the movie and I'm talking about the title character played by Peter Sellers. It was the first and last time I attempted to watch anything by Kubrick or Sellers. I was very let down.

Absolute brilliant comedy that covers and maintains 2 themes, one subtly, and one not so subtly. Sex and war, the 2 essentials of masculinity, which the film portrays beautifully. Things so commonly insignificant in film are subtly sexualized, like the opening credits, a fighter jet refueling another fighter jet mid flight, let your gutter mind get the best of you here. Give it a watch.
