BOBBY: A MOMENT OF HOPE SHATTERED BY TRAGEDY

Date of Review:  Nov 23, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you want to see a slice of life in the political world of 1968, this is a great film to see.
Review: I recently heard an interview of Emelio Estevez concerning this film which he both directed and wrote. He has been trying to put the film together for a number of years but couldn't get financing. When he finally did get the financing, actors...

A Terrific Idea Run Aground and Wasted

Date of Review:  Mar 31, 2009
The Bottom Line: Bobby could've been fantastic, and ended up for hardcore fans of historical fiction only.  The cast might draw some in, but most will be bored and annoyed.
Review: One of the key selling points to any film, obviously, is its premise.  Sure, some can be boiled down to a "(Movie star) in a (genre) with (movie star)" formula, and that gets films made, and in a lot of cases makes money and puts Hummers and...

BOBBY--WE ARE ALL MORTAL

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2006
The Bottom Line: Former brat packer Emilio Estevez assembles an all star cast for BOBBY, a lightweight historical drama that explores multiple characters on the eve of Robert F. Kennedy's tragic death
Review: Flabbergasted. That's the primary feeling I had watching the new drama BOBBY. Not because the film is anything great--it isn't--but rather because it's writer/director is none other than Emilio Estevez. Who would have ever thought the film maker...

Bobby : A glimpse into the tragedy.

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2008
The Bottom Line: It's hard to watch a movie that portrays such a terrible tragedy. But this movie was done extremely well, and I enjoyed it.
Review: I enjoyed it. In fact, I was so engrossed by it, I don't think I moved for the entire two hours.

I'm talking about Bobby, Emilio Estevez's movie depicting one fateful day that changed the lives of many people forever.

The movie...

A day in the life of Bobby Kennedy

Date of Review:  Dec 26, 2007
The Bottom Line: It's one of the better movies I've seen in a while.
Review: Bobby is a very good movie about the last day in the life of Bobby Kennedy. It was written and directed by Emilio Estevez, and features a huge cast of actors including Anthony Hopkins, Elijah Wood, Lindsay Lohan, Sharon Stone, Demi Moore, Shia...

Bobby - 2006

Date of Review:  Jul 21, 2009
The Bottom Line:
"For those we lose before their time,
I pray their souls will find a light
I know that the day will surely come, when it will be done"
~Adams
Review: I had forgotten the anger and mistrust that covered our Nation during the 1960-1970 era but a recent viewing of Bobby, written and directed by Emilio Estevez brought it all back with a vengeance. The movie, although certainly centered around the...

"Bobby:" Another Big Cast Movie I Wanted To Like More

Date of Review:  Apr 25, 2007
The Bottom Line: Awkwardly combining archived footage and newly directed material, the fateful day of RFK's primary victory in California is recreated in a painstaking and painful way.
Review: Sometimes movies that have huge casts know how to use those big casts. They wow the audience with their performances with sheer force of numbers. So, for example, critics often overlook the magnificent "Cradle Will Rock" (reviewed at:...
