Don DeLillo Is Right (As Usual)

Date of Review:  Apr 14, 2009
The Bottom Line: Epinions, I sometimes loathe your neediness.
Review: Don DeLillo (who wrote a speculative account of Lee Harvey Oswald's life entitled Libra) called Oliver Stone's JFK "like Disneyland for conspiracy theorists."  And he was quite right.  If you are looking for an analysis of this film's accuracy...

When You Don't Know the Truth, Make Something Up: JFK

Date of Review:  Aug 24, 2006
The Bottom Line: An excellently made film that will provide grist for many "what if" discussions, but do not confuse JFK with history.
Review: JFK (1991)

"Help, I'm stepping into the Twilight Zone
The place is a mad-house, feels like being cloned
My beacon's been moved under moon and star
Where am I to go now that I've gone too far?
…
Soon you will...

JFK's Assassination According to Oliver Stone

Date of Review:  Oct 22, 2001
The Bottom Line: If you want a made-in-Hollywood historical movie about our most recent history that makes you reflect about our country's sins and contradictions this is what you might be looking for.
Review: Oliver Stone has been criticized and often glorified for being our most controversial and provocative film director. All of his movies are a legacy of the greatness of America, mirrored through a strong sense of criticism and defiance. "Platoon"...

Just Fantastically Krazy

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2008
The Bottom Line: Worth the investment in time to examine a critical piece of our nation's history in an easy to digest format
Review: I wasn't even born until a few months after this movie ends but I have always  been minorly fascinated with JFK - I probably caught that from my mother.  Even so, I had to carefully consider whether I had three hours to devote to this topic. ...

It's Up To You...

Date of Review:  Feb 11, 2001
The Bottom Line: "JFK" is a masterful piece of filmmaking that would have been better served had it not been a piece of propaganda designed to make you scared of your own government.
Review: There are many things surrounding the assassination of John F. Kennedy that make one wonder. Why such a cover up of the files that the FBI and CIA hold on the issue? If the only thing there was that Lee Harvey Oswald killed the president, then there...

MY FIRST REAL PAIN

Date of Review:  Mar 25, 2000
Review: I was a senior in high school when JFK was murdered. This was the first president I was going to be able to vote for and I was excited. To have been alive and old enough to realize what was going on during this tumultuous era was very eerie. There...

The Book

Date of Review:  Mar 21, 2001
The Bottom Line: Most readable of many JFK books. Not the final word, however - that one may never be written. A worthy, thought-provoker, though.
Review: Anyone who has seen Oliver Stone's '91 film "JFK" might enjoy reading D.A. Jim Garrison's book, On The Trail of Assassins. This book is unfortunately not a choice for review in the Books section of Epinions; also the 1988 hardcover version is...

Just More Questions

Date of Review:  Jun 25, 2001
The Bottom Line: An essay in film form, still one of the most compelling historical films ever made.
Review: The assassination of John F. Kennedy is one of the profound moments in American history. Sometimes, it?s difficult to understand why, seeing as how I was born long after it happened. It might have been the first sign of the cynicism about politics...

How much is fiction?

Date of Review:  Jun 12, 2000
Review: I was not even alive when JFK was shot, but the amazement I have for what occurred on that day and the days before and after it is unmeasurable. Before even watching the movie I had been to visit the area in Dallas that the whole thing occurred. And...

JFK: Facts & Theories Galore, but Where's The Movie?

Date of Review:  Oct 8, 2000
Review: After watching JFK, I certainly have a lot more information and a better understanding of the circumstances surrounding the death of John F. Kennedy. The movie is basically a platform by which director Oliver Stone educates the viewer on all the...
