He’s great as Khruschev in “The Death of Stalin”

Best acting job out of a great cast. You’d think Steve Buscemi? Naaah, but he made it work.

Absolutely. You are spot on. Never in a million years would I have chosen Buscemi to play Khrushchev, but OMG...he makes it work...granted, it is a comedy, but still...

The scene with (LINK: Nikita Khrushchev (Steve Buscemi) and Marshall Zhukov (Jason Isaacs) talking about pinning unrest on Beria is hilarious! I laugh every single time I see it!

I got the distinct impression Jason Isaacs heartily enjoyed playing Marshall Zhukov!

I was conflicted about seeing this movie. I didn't think I could laugh at a comedy about a brutal dictatorship responsible for the death of millions of innocent people, but the satire of the Soviet government was priceless, and yes...I did find myself laughing at it!
