The Death of Stalin (2017)

A very funny, beautifully made satire about the fight for power in the Soviet Union following Stalin's death. It's a period piece that feel like a cross between Veep and Dr. Strangelove, with a humorous depiction of Russia's most ruthless dictator that rivals The Producers. A lot of the inside politics requires a background in the history of the USSR, but even people unfamiliar with that will still enjoy this. Buscemi, naturally, is the standout as Nikita Khrushchev. He speaks in his natural New York accent throughout, which makes his performance even funnier. If you need another reason to watch this, note that it's banned in Russia! 4 out of 5 Stars.
