JFK


Adam's Rating : 5     Rotten Rating : 82     Review Date : 2/28/09 11:43 PM        Bookmark and Share



I saw this movie in the theater with a friend from high school. I remember the two of us walking about of the theater looking for the government bad guy that was surely hiding underneath my car. Neither one of us could believe how our government could do this to us. Over the next couple of years I read just about every book on the assassination. It is amazing how there seem to be a hundred times more that support a conspiracy theory than what actually happened.

Fast forward (gulp) eighteen years. It has long been proven that JFK had in fact acted alone. While I openly distrust the government I pride myself in the ability to call a spade a spade. But for this whole time I had still enjoyed this movie for the way it presented this (fake) drama. No more. Want to see the truth? Here it is.

And now I'm disgusted. Disgusted that I enjoyed this movie for so long and disgusted that Oliver Stone could take completely liberties with the facts. It is one thing to believe that there was a conspiracy and show why you think that the government was involved. It is another thing to make up events, characters and situations that can be proven to be BS.
