3.5*/5.0*

A witty but dark and bone dry comedy that tells of the chaos that ensues when Stalin suddenly dies of a stroke. Carried out in deadpan fashion, but clearly played for laughs, Iannucci has a tight grip on story and actors. It's not a very bright or relaxing comedy, but that doesn't make it any less fun. Liked this one a lot.
