Dr Strangelove review

Kubrick's humour doesn't always detonate as it should in Armando Iannucci's version.

Steve Coogan works hard - but this is cheap and silly.

Dr Strangelove review

As director, Foley also lets the actors spend too much time seated at the back of the stage behind a table, sometimes making sight lines difficult, but the cast is clearly having a great time, and for the most part, thanks to Bechtler's vision and Coogan's performance, the audience is too.

OK, so it's not the biting The Thick Of It-styled political satire we wanted but as far as light entertainment goes, it's pretty good.
