Why so much hype?
Sorry, this movie sucks
Lack of good storyline.
Absolutely brilliant
The JFK (1991) by Kevin Costner is more sensible than the other movies till now; because there is at least three shooters and five shots.Everybody knows that the invention of magic bullet story is just an unscientific explanation.As Kevin Costner says in dialog It was a programmed plan by the USA government of the time was executed by experienced and sophisticated shooters, not only by Oswald (or maybe he was a part of plan that told or untold so that's not matters).In the JFK we see that most of policemen and security forces are told of what will going to happen and what they must to do. By the way It's good to know that what are the effective factors have an influence on our thoughts and to persuade us how should we think about it.
I recently watched two movies produced by Bill O'Reilly, Killing Kennedy and Killing Jesus. What can I say? Bill succeeded to kill them both. With such a enormous intriguing stories behind the lives and deaths of those great men, O'Reilly used them to show us a soap opera kind of third grade TV movie. Apparently, two flops in a row! Everybody who watched O'Reilly talk show pays tribute to his oral skills and intelligence. However, in film making Bill O'Reilly came out as a failure. Both his movies are dull and just boring. But even more problematic is Bill O'Reilly's choice to disregard the known facts and to show his own view that doesn't settle with history.
Knowing Billo's politics, I feel violated, repulsed and disgusted that he had the audacity to write a book on this subject. The only redeeming thing about this film is Rob Lowe. I hope Rob wakes up politically one day. He is super talented and I think he has the wit and intelligence to start seeing what's happening in the party of politics he supports.I prefer Stone's version on this subject. His film respects Kennedy and his admirers. This film is one dimensional and revolves around the so called official story of the lone gunman. That story has too many holes in it to have as much credibility as this film gives it.This film is a mistake... it should never have been made. However, I am sure others will follow of this ilk. The conservatives hate the Kennedy family and all they stand for. So they will do anything to wilt and tarnish history in order to be right about their own beliefs and philosophies.
well 50 years later and we still don't know who killed Kennedy more or less. we all have our theories as do I,, but for the movie, I was surprised Rob Lowe took on the job of playing Kennedy,, wow I never would have seen that coming,,, I like the young lady who played,, Lee's wife she's very talented,, didn't really learn a lot of new things,, sure there were some stuff that was interesting and played in a different light or angle that maybe I never seen of or thought of before,,, with a movie like this it should have been either 4 hours or 2 hours commercial free, not a bad movie,, but everything is so condensed it's hard to coencentrate on any one aspect of Kennedy's life,, the shooting,, the transfer of power,, all of that stuff,, should have been an 8 hour mini-series.... note to a&e,, next time,, 8-10 mini series,, and don't do the lone gunman theory we know that duck don't hunt.
