The assassination of President John Kennedy on November 22, 1963 causes a sensation. The film shows a genuine and realistic look at President John F. Kennedy and his assassination in Dallas. Lee Harvey Oswald was arrested for murdering the president, but shot by Jack Robbie who wanted to avenge the president's death. There may be a real look that shows that the case has come to me that Harvey Oswald and Jack Robbie acted alone in their crimes, but Louisiana District Attorney Jim Garrison reveals other facts, through a realistic look at this sensational assassination.

JFK undeniably is well crafted and exhilarating. But it comes equipped with the biggest movie caveat emptor on record -- the historical context is Stone's and Stone's alone.

Stone goes for the gut, but the complexity of theories surrounding the Kennedy assassination might have benefited from a cooler assessment.

The film's insurmountable problem is the vast amount of material it fails to make coherent sense of.

While Stone has certainly stirred up the waters, with good conscience and, in JFK's own parlance, "with vigah," most people are likely to regard JFK as BS.
May 12, 2001
As speculation, JFK is riveting. As proof, it's bunk. Stone has turned what he considers the crime of the century into a disturbing anomaly -- a dishonest search for truth.

It's damn entertaining and thought-provoking.

Despite the controversial and verbose nature of the material, not to mention lenghty running time, Oliver Stone's JFK is a riveting dramatizaition of various conspiracy theories regarding the Kennedy's assassination
November 12, 2013
Even aside from what it's saying, and even with the many, many forced moments, JFK has a mad genius about it.

an imperfect masterpiece

Sad to say, Oliver Stone's three hours of bombast did little to raise the level of discussion.

Costner may not resemble the real Garrison much ... but the actor, in a low-key but forceful performance, nicely conveys the requisite grit, curiosity and fearlessness.
