Aroview: Oliver Stone's gripping, technically dazzling opus is both convincing propaganda and marvellous entertainment, with Kevin Costner leading a large and prestigious cast. Director's cut (206m.) also available with bonus doco BEYOND JFK (90m.).
Average rating (Good Enough). Showing 1-3 of 3 member reviews.
2 stars (Good Try) There are plenty of documentaries available - this is a waste of film stock & only adds to the confusion about what happened. If we are to be condemned to a 3 hour dramatisation then the lead actor should at least be alive & not a drone. ~Tubbs
3 stars (Good Enough) Better to read a good and up to date book about the JFK assasination than watch this.Some facts are interesting but not really totally believable when you research this topic. A bit dated. ~emjay
4 stars (Very Good) The facts are dubious; the form manipulative; and the rhetorical sanctimony laughable. But if you want an epic movie-vision of All-American Paranoia, JFK's as grand and vivid as they get. Gauche, gripping hackery. ~fairbrother
