CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Michael_Elliott The Assassination of President Kennedy (2013)*** 1/2 Tom Hanks served as the Executive Producer for this documentary that originally aired on CNN. The documentary's first forty-five minutes covers President Kennedy arriving in Dallas and everything leading up to his assassination, the arrest of Lee Harvey Oswald and of course Jack Ruby entering the picture. The final portion of this movie is meant to prove that the 61% of Americans who believe there was some sort of conspiracy and that there was more than one shooter are wrong. I must say that I've watched quite a few Kennedy documentaries over the past two decades and each of them usually offers a different view and opinion on the subject. It seems that a lot of the documentaries made for the 50th Anniversary of the assassination are laying down a hammer in regards to anyone other than Oswald being the shooters. This film shows the various theories that have been out there starting just days after the assassination and it pretty much tries to crush all of them. The main focus is Jim Garrison, the New Orleans D.A. who was the main subject in Oliver Stone's JFK. The experts here really give Garrison a major beating and at this point I really wished the "other side" was given an opportunity to speak up and share their thoughts. Great documentaries can be made about the side saying there was only one killer as there can also be great documentaries by the side saying there were more than one shooter. With that said, I must admit that I'd prefer a film that gave both sides a chance to speak so that the viewer can make up their own minds. THE ASSASSINATION OF PRESIDENT KENNEDY doesn't really do this as many of the conspiracy theories are simply put to rest but I'd say there still many questions that aren't answered. Again, it's fine that this film wants to give its opinions on the subject but in the end there's just no way to deny that it's rather one sided. I don't think we'll ever know what really happened that day if there was a conspiracy and if a single man did really take down the President then it's just something that happened that no one can believe. The documentary contains some great interviews, some wonderful footage and there's no question that the editing of the material is top notch. Kennedy buffs will certainly want to check it out but I'm going to guess that 61% of the people watching it aren't going to buy what it's saying.

Mustang92 What a shame that Tom Hanks' company, Playtone, produced this piece of drek. This is a total whitewash of the Kennedy assassination, and a bad one.Most of the evidence that is not congruent with the Warren Commission Report is missing from examination in this so-called "documentary." When I sat down to watch this, I thought, "Huh, Tom Hanks produced it... maybe it'll be decent." I certainly didn't and wouldn't have expected total bullsh*t. But that's what we got.For the few valid points raised by author Mark Lane, who believed it was more than Oswald involved, there were at least 2-3 talking heads spewing opposition -- all just hot air by people like Bugliosi. No facts, no examining of evidence, just vomit coming out of those who drank the Warren Commission's koolaid years ago. Avoid this crap program like the plague!!
