dostlar 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.
Kirpianuscus his performance is the best part of film. and, maybe, the only motif to see it. because it is a conventional film, using only well known facts, but in not inspired manner. a film who remains prisoner of clichés and superficiality. the bad thing is not exactly the easy manner to present Warrner report but the desire to impress, without the right tools. because the parallel Kennedy - Oswald is not convincing. because the ambition to give a docudrama falls in a strange state of confusion. so, a try. maybe, not so nice.
Desertman84 Killing Kennedy is a TV movie based on the book written by FOX analyst Bill O' Reilly that tells the story of the late President John F. Kennedy particularly his assassination and that of his alleged killer,Lee Harvey Oswald. The screenplay tells a parallel story about Kennedy and Oswald from the 1960 US Presidential elections until that fateful day of November 22,1963 when the President was assassinated at Dallas,Texas.Rob Lowe stars as the United States President John F. Kennedy together with Will Rothhaar,who portrays Oswald,Ginnifer Goodwin and Michelle Trachtenberg.The TV movie starts with John F.Kennedy preparing for his speech to announce his candidacy for President.He belongs a prominent family that has great plans for the male children.As for the other story,we get to see a young 20-year-old Lee Harvey Oswald renounce his US citizenship at the US embassy.He becomes disillusioned as a Marine and turned into becoming a Marxist. The story goes to show how both Kennedy and Oswald progress with the former from being a presidential candidate into being elected into the White House and the latter from being a member of the US marine into becoming a Marxist that started working as a Russian spy.It concludes with that fateful day in November when Oswald performed the assassination and when he was later shot by Jack Ruby three days later.Conspiracy theorists will definitely be disappointed since it is not the same as Oliver Stone's 1991 movie JFK as it shows Oswald being alone and definitely guilty in shooting Kennedy within three shots.There will be no additional knowledge about conspiracy for it just portrays what history has always thought Americans about what happened on that day as Oswald as the lone gunman.As far as the other parts of the story is concerned,it is definitely too short being a 95-minute film. If there is one reason to see it, I would suggest that the viewer will be treated to great acting particularly from Rob Lowe,who provided a spectacular performance as President Kennedy himself. That alone is enough to provide pure delight and entertainment.
tsneece 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.
