A load of bull... but very good bull
To loosely quote Pearl Harbor, this movie is a load of bull, but verygood bull at that. Thoroughly entertaining, if the JFK case is of anyinterest to you, it's worth a watch. Just remember to turn on the jellybrain, and don't take it too seriously.JFK the movie is considered Oliver Stone's attempt to promoteconspiracy theories and re-open people's minds to other explanations.However, if you're looking for hard, solid arguments, look elsewherebecause the amount of poppy-cock scenes and characters they've wheedledin is tremendous.Without a doubt the film's strongest points are the top class editingand brilliant class of acting. Oldman truly amazed me in his portrayalas Lee Harvey Oswald, I barely recognized him, until I saw hisname/role listed in the credits. Costner is a jewel in this film, everyone of his lines are delivered with such sincerity that he almoststarts to convince you... if it weren't for the amount of bull.The first 6 minutes of the film are very moving, and is edited withgreat precision. Aided with the excellent music score (cheers to JohnWilliams), the segment had the power to bring me, an emotionallyhardened entertainment addict, to tears.Watch the movie. But bear in mind, it's all bull.

Truly Powerful Cinema.
Truly Powerful Cinema.JFK is one of the most Powerful Movies I have ever seen. The story isso Gripping right from the beginning and it never looses pacethroughout the film. This movie never looks fake or made up. The thingsthat are shown in this movies don't just look real, they look even moreCONVINCING. SO convincing that I BELIEVE it!!!Maybe not the whole story is true.. BUT I bet 80% is TRUE withoutHesitation.CUZ seriously think about it . This movie makes us think and it'sactually Pretty absurd that Americans have to be TOLD what to think .This is a Fantastic movie that is BELIEVABLE from every aspect. JustLike DA Vinci Code which is TRULY thought PROVOKING  10/10 A masterpiece. Question Yourslef!

General Final Conclusion
Good movie.It's really disturbing to see such big crime ever happened, in the biggestcountry in the world. And very inspiring to anybody who still admiringjustice and truth preserve in the face of mother earth.It's very logical and realistic, and only a blind fool would try to lookaway from the daring truth or seeking political argument to make excuse forsuch conspiracy.From the movie point of view, it is very Oliver Stone-ish. So you won't finddifficulties in digesting the story and the message.It's a valuable movie to be watched with all your family; to teach all of usthe value and costs of honesty and truth.

Lies, Lies and More Lies!
If you want the truth, watch the Discovery Channel or the History Channel. They've done some excellent documentaries on the subject.The only thing this movie gets right was the fact that JFK was shot in Dallas. The rest is a bunch of giant lies! Stone should be locked up for passing off this fiction as truth. And what's most unfortunate about it is that young people will believe this nonsense as what really happened. It's not! Lies! Lies and more lies!

Long and detailed but engrossing nonetheless
This is a controversial and challenging film about the death of the American president, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and its aftermath. Almost since the day he died in 1963, rumours have abounded to the effect that there was a cover-up in the investigation which then began. Various notables have interested themselves in this story over the years. Bertrand Russell wrote a book about it after the publication of the Warren Report in 1967. Neither he nor anyone since has had their questions taken seriously, least of all by the American establishment. Oliver Stone's film recapitulates all the main evidence pointing to a conspiracy and does so in some detail. In the end, we find ourselves asking just what are the limits of our belief (or disbelief) in this matter. Could the CIA have deliberately murdered the President on behalf of an industrial consortium who wanted war in Vietnam? Was the Vice President involved? This is a long, involved film but worth the time nonetheless. After all, it just may be one of the most important stories of the twentieth century.

An excellent film and just that
I'm from the UK and I first saw this film about six years ago.Initially I was struck by it's power to persuade, I finished watchingit and felt convinced President Kennedy's death was the result of amassive plot involving everyone and anyone. This I think is a testamentto the quality of the film and the way in which Oliver Stone throws amountain of evidence up into the air and then with some of the bestediting I've ever seen constructs a case implicating the US government,the Cubans, the Mafia and various others in a conspiracy. Even if youdon't agree with Stone I think you still have to admire the way hepresents his case.Of course this was before I began to study US history in particular,the Civil Rights Movement from Lincoln to the 1980s and Cold Warbetween 1945 and 1975. As you can probably guess I realised Stonehadn't been entirely honest in his historical interpretations in JFK. Iwent on to realise that the reasons Stone puts forward as to whyKennedy was shot were not entirely accurate.Meanwhile before I saw JFK I knew very little of the various theoriesthat abound about what happened on Dealey Plaza in November 1963. Sincethen though I've read quite a lot about the assassination although I'mby no means as knowledgeable as the residents of the message boards forthis film. However although I'm now sceptical regarding of Stone'sversion of events I still have his film to thank for encouraging me tolook deeper into the case and, as is stated by X in the film, to makemy own conclusions.Also, despite the fact that I reckon JFK probably wasn't the victim ofa conspiracy, I still think that JFK works superbly as politicalthriller of epic proportions (and I just love the way Hollywood legendsstroll in and out of small roles). What's more although events onDealey Plaza may not have played out as described in JFK the film stillmanages to convince me that a scenario could play out in such afashion.Finally whatever you think about the death of Presindent Kennedy youreally need to see JFK if only because it's three hours of simplybreathtaking entertainment

a gripping tale of one mans quest to find the truth about the murder of president John Fitzgerald Kennedy on November 22nd 1963 a great film.
Starring Kevin Costner as district attorny Jim Garrison the only man toever make a trial looking at the murder of Kennedy .JFK opens with a haunting montage of real footage of the Kennedy familyand images from America and Cuba of Castro , Kennedy and other worldleaders with a voice over from actor Martin Sheen ( who once playedPresident Kennedy in a TV mini series) then a woman is thrown from acar screaming " don't leave me here come back " but they drive off andshe is taken to hospital where she keeps saying "their going to killKennedy their going to Dallas on Friday their going to kill Kennedy"then it moves to that haunting footage from November 22 1963 of JFK andJackie walking around talking to people and Jackie is given a bouquetof red roses. Then we have footage showing the motorcade going throughDallas people waving, a gun shot is heard and then a CBS news bulletincomes on explaining Kennedy has been shot and then it flicks to NewOrleans and from then on its Kevin Costners show. He is great in thisfilm he delivers his lines well and gives a stunning performance asGarrison .Other stars are Gary Oldman as Lee Harvy Oswald , SissySpacek as Elizabeth Garrison, Tommy Lee Jones as Clay Shaw , Joe Pescias David Ferrie and Donald Sutherland as X the former army official whoassists Garrison with some details about the day. John Williams musicis excellent and stays in the memory Oliver Stone has directed aclassic film I have brought this and recommend it to other people it isworth buying or renting.Although do not take everything in it as thecomplete truth.

Interessting, fascinating og genius
(CONTAINS SPOILERS)O I'm excited - in 2029 I can run into the FBI / CIA archives and grabsomeinformation and facts about what they found out about the murder on JohnF.Kennedy. Great! Because after this movie, you get the feeling of beinghelpless...it's so irritating!Kevin Costner, Tommy Lee Jones, Gary Oldman, Kevin Bacon, Joe Pesci,DonaldSutherland, Sissy Spacek - they've taken good actors and a fantasticdirector (Vietnam vet Oliver Stone) and so we are rolling!STORY: Jim Garrison picks up the unsolved case the murder of JFK. So, hestarts picking up information in the most hidden places and soon he is ontosomething very interessting. He starts getting ways into the deppest andmost secret places and organzations and soon things starts making way andshowing that things goes the way back to the war in Vietnam...That's very easily told this story, because it's far more complicated thenthat though, okay, not faaar more complicated but what's really gettinyourfascination and brain starting working is the investigation and dramaticswhen Garrison and his small piece of team starts looking and searching,veryentertaining!Without doubt one of Stone's very best movies - again he brings up thetemaVietnam (Platoon, Heaven & Earth, Born the 4th of July) and again he showsthat he knows his job. See this!! Very good movie
Eternality (19 May 2012)
For students of film, JFK is a valuable source. For the rest of us, JFK is one of the greatest films we will ever see.
Oliver Stone. The director whose name is synonymous with Vietnam Warflicks and controversial political pictures. He is the brains behindfilms like Platoon, Born On The Fourth Of July, Natural Born Killers,Nixon, Wall Street, and JFK. He seldom fails, and apart from making thedismal Alexander a few years back, Stone is still one of America's mostdaring and influential filmmakers.JFK is the best picture Stone has ever made. There's little reason tobelieve he will ever surpass what he has accomplished for JFK. The filmruns for more than three hours, and with the overwhelming amount ofcontent and the humongous scope of the plot, it's unbelievable thatStone managed to complete the production of the film within two years.He expertly explains and explores the conspiracies that surround theassassination of President Kennedy back in the 1960s throughspellbinding color and black-and-white images, and the recreation ofthe chain of sequences that lead to the assassination and itsconvoluted aftermath.Was he murdered by the lone shooter Lee Harvey Oswald? Or were thereothers involved? Did the US military, FBI, CIA conspire to kill theirown President? What about the 'magic bullet' theory? Where's theZapruder film kept? Was there a massive cover-up by the highestauthorities of the American government, including its judiciary system?These are all aptly discussed in the film, providing crucial insights,and occasionally leaving more questions unanswered, challenging viewersto think and respond.Effective individual performances from A-listers like Kevin Costner,Tommy Lee Jones, Joe Pesci, Gary Oldman, Kevin Bacon, and DonaldSutherland combine flawlessly, resulting in one of the most extensiveand well-assembled cast in the history of cinema. JFK won only twoOscars for best cinematography and film editing in a year dominated byJonathan Demme's Silence Of The Lambs, a meager return for one of thebest films of the century. The Academy owes Oliver Stone another bestpicture and director award.After critiquing hundreds of films over the last couple of years, JFKstill remains rooted in the second spot of my Personal Top 100, onlybettered by Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List. It is, in my opinion,the best edited film of all-time. The manner in which Oliver Stonefilmed JFK through the use of disturbing flashback images, rapid-fireediting, and intertwining it with suspenseful pulsating rhythms bycomposer John Williams, and knowing it's all based on a terribly trueevent makes it one of the most chilling movie experiences ever. Forstudents of film, JFK is a valuable source. For the rest of us, JFK isone of the greatest films we will ever see.SCORE: 10/10 (www.filmnomenon.blogspot.com) All rights reserved!

JFK limo
I am the owner of the x100 that oliver stone used in the movie. I stillhave the car but it has brought me a lot of dis pair over the next 10years. I collect JFK and the x100 is only one item of my many thousandsof fine JFK memorabilia. I was an extra in the movie and I have firsthand photos in the hundreds of the making of the Dallas assassinationscenes. Many of the actors in the car, the motorcade, oliver stone, andmany more all for sale if interested. I also still have the remake seatcover of the back seat used to cover the original seats during thebloody Dallas scene which was shot dozens of times.The car is in remarkable shape, not perfect but far from imperfect. Itwas built from the original blueprints. the movie was probably moreaccurate then we think.

A country incapable of scandal?
The power of JFK as a film is affirmed for me when re-watching ourdirector's cut video of the 1991 film. New information jumps out of thedense montage every time I watch this movie again, usually every 3 to 4years.After nearly a decade, however, there is no longer a "frisson" for me in thethe courtroom line delivered by Kevin Costner as Jim Garrison, pronouncingthe JFK assassination to be a "coup d'etat", a secret murder at the heart ofcontemporary US history. As a Canadian, I witness right-wing US politicalshenanigans like the recent Presidential election, and it's the same oldstuff. It's been said that a country incapable of scandal is like a body incapableof pain, or a mind incapable of guilt. In my estimation, Stone does hiscapable filmmaker's best at trying to rehabilitate the scandal muscle in theAmerican body politic. It is not at all clear he succeeds, though, eventhough his film is great entertainment and a viable "counter myth. It seemsthat most often when Stone is mentioned in the US media, it's with an angryand derisive rejection of this film, and a deliberate effort to deny himstature as a filmmaker.Incapable of scandal? Perhaps not, perhaps merely unwilling.

Artful fiction that distorts the facts
Garrison never made the closing argument speech that Kevin Costnerdelivered in the JFK film.That is just one of the many glaring things in this film that arekluged. The HISTORY CHANNEL did a thorough job of debunking it.In JFK, Oliver Stone takes history and fictionalizes it to make it amore dramatic, commercial piece that he passes off as re-enactinghistory. In fact, much of Stone's "JFK" movie is a lie, it neverhappened as Stone depicted it.Oliver Stone has admitted using "artistic license" in creating the filmbut his depiction goes way beyond that. It's all so convincinglyportrayed that many people have taken it as fact. It's not unlike theJon Stewart Daily Show treatment of the news or Michael Moore'sdistortions in his "documentaries".If Stone's upcoming movie "W" is anything like his previous work - itwill be nothing more than a new collection of Stone's lies anddistortions - simply not to be believed. Nevertheless, a lazy andignorant populace will soak it up as fact and make Oliver Stone a lotmore money.

Back, and to the left....Stone's second best picture behind Born on the Fourth
JFK (the director's cut version) is like a history lesson taught by anunconventional, usually thought provoking, and ultimately inspiringprofessor, transferred brilliantly onto celluloid. In fact this film, whichhas been put down by various critics (not film critics mind you) for it'slack of truth and tendency to go off on conspiracy theories. These critics,and there are plenty of them, entirely miss the point of the picture. Thisis the ONLY kind of film that a film maker like Stone could make, one thatis a challenge to the system, one that questions, and with questions that,after such a hefty lesson, makes a whole lot of sense. JFK is in reality afilm ABOUT America, about the feelings that go with a national tragedy, theassumptions, the cover-ups, the fears, control, and head question-why?Stone makes Jim Garrison, played by Kevin Costner in one of his few superbperformances, as a man who starts off believing the Warren Commissionfollowing the assassination on the day 11/22/63. Years later, he begins toget gradually drawn into the idea that a conspiracy could be, and aftervarious interviews and queries, he finds that there may be more, his mindopened to the possibility of truth. He takes Clayton Laverne Shaw, aliasClay Bertrand (played to a deserved Oscar nominated stance by Tommy LeeJones), to court, that he was in cahoots with not only Lee Harvey Oswald(Gary Oldman), but much, much more. Personally, amongst other small items, I agreed with two main points on JFK- 1) there had to have been more than one shooter for the notion of themagic bullet theory, which states that a bullet went back and to the left,not to mention that the footage that shows this, within the film by AbrahamZabruder, is kept out of public view to this day. 2) in the exceptionalcameo by Donald Sutherland as Mr. X, when he refers to the militaryindustrial complex, and to the fact that in other parts of the world peoplealready were hearing the entire history of Oswald was the killer beforepeople in the United States even knew about the man, also to the blackoperations, which I definitely don't doubt exist.However, by the end of the 205 minute investigative epic into the "coupde-ta" of our 35th president, even those who may question Garrison's (aswell as Stone's) views can still see the film as a masterwork of feelings,an atmosphere of a specific time and mood of a country. The photography andediting, both Oscar winning, make the film all the more compelling,spell-binding, and very much unforgettable. Along with Sutherland's nearshow-stopping bit, other actors make very noteworthy appearances- KevinBacon, John Candy, Walter Matthau (in the plot thickening moment), JackLemmon, Ed Asner, and especially Joe Pesci, who's eyebrows steal his scenes. Based on books by Garrison and Jim Morrs. A++

Ollie - you whacky guy!
First, as a movie, you can't do better than JFK. In fact, it would be hard to do better than Stone, period, in terms of movie making. This guy is a fantastic director (and writer) - imaginative, original, courageous and much more. This movie will absolutely keep you riveted to your seat. In many ways, like Stone's "The Doors" (a five star effort), it will blow your mind. Stone's creativity, compared to the crap spewing out of Hollywood these days, is truly remarkable. So, why two stars? The allegations this movie makes (and don't be fooled by Stone's baloney that the movie gives multiple points of view - Stone's point of view, not subtly delivered, is that the U.S. government whacked Kennedy) are so absurd, when compared to the actual facts, as to be comical. The completely unfunny part is that many in our illiterate society - particularly the young - will take this crap as real history. The threads of coincidences, etc. which Stone, through nut-case Garrison's character (well played, as usual, by Costner), tries to morph into facts are so blatantly ridiculous (if you have taken any time at all to read about or study the Kennedy assassination) that your mind may be blown in this respect, also. To hear Stone tell it at the time of the movie's promotion, Kennedy was killed and the Warren commission illegally and under-handedly threw out the lone gunman as fact and no one in positions of responsibility ever challenged that conclusion (an assertion Dan Rather did a great job of exposing as false in an interview with Stone). It would be easy, but probably boring, to point out all of the absurdities in this film - for they are legion. So, my advice would be to 1) enjoy the flick, but give it no more credence as history than you would The Wizard of Oz; 2) if you are interested in the Kennedy Assassination, refer to the plethora of great books, documentaries, etc., which are available from all points of view; last, as with all things Oliver Stone, consider the source. He is a genius in many ways, but not one who has ever been a champion of truth...oh, and that Joe Pesci - HOLY COW!
(06 May 2012)
Not The Half Of It
There's no question in my mnd there was a Govt. Conspiracy to kill our last truly inspiring President, but what is lost in the imbroglio over the contents of this most controversial film is..Much of the powerful evidence was not depicted. The Vietnam segment is by far the best part of the film and is worth the price of the video for that, as well as some truly amazing re-creations in the photographic and editing aspects.

Masterpiece - Film and DVD
This review is from: JFK (Special Edition Director's Cut) - Oliver Stone Collection (DVD) The feature is engrossing from start to finish, no mean feat for a feature over 3 hours long. Kevin Costner (never better) is ably supported by a stellar cast, including Kevin Bacon, Ed Ansner, Jack Lemmon to name a few. The film interposes stock footage - including the famous Zapruder film - with the directors own vision to piece together a viscereal view of what happened leading up to, and during the asassination of JFK. The trial at the end of the film is Costners greatest moment where he poses hard questions to a disbelieving courtroom, with a passion for the truth, and a tear in his eye: "Remember your dying King"A superb anamorphic transfer, with special features over two discs, this DVD is an essential purchase for those interested in one of the darkest days in world history.Thoroughly recommended.

Long, but worth it
This movie is really long, but it's worth it, it's one of the coolestmoviesI've ever watched. I watched it over a weekend, and didn't turn my headaway once. Oliver Stone did a superb job, and its a very fascinatingstory.It will make you think about whether or not there was a conspiracy.

"Back and to the left. Back and to the left."
This is a riveting movie from start to finish and the way it racks up thetension is, well, better than anything I've ever seen. An all-star cast,wonderful direction, top notch screenplay and suspencefulscore.Of course, as 'history' we all know JFK is quite seriously flawed, but doesthat really matter? it's only a movie after all. Personally, I loved it.I've read the long and eloquent reviews of others and there's no point justrepeating what other folks have already said, so here's my 'take' on themurder of President Kennedy. MY theory is that Lee Harvey Oswald wassuffering from undiagnosed Aspergers Syndrome; a minor form of Autism. Lookit up on the internet (if you're interested). It's the only thing - for me -that explains his character. Oswald was a highly intelligent man, butwithout focus. His (self taught) Russian was not only fluent but perfect. Hejoined the US Marine Corps, but was attracted to Communism and he was activein both the pro and anti castro movements. I think Oswald was involved inthe murder (somehow) but my conclusion is he wasn't the only shooter andprobably not a shooter at all. I think there WAS a conspiracy and shadowypeople far more streetwise than Oswald easily picked him out as atailor-made fall guy. Just a few hours before his death JFK said: "We'reheading into nut country today". Dallas was a 'hostile' city, so how comehis security was so lax? And despite the movie's many inaccuracies it didget one vital thing right. "Back and to the left. Back and to the left". Thefinal shot which killed the President could never have been fired frombehind the car. The anti conspiracy theorists always put forward the notionthat (if it was a conspiracy) someone would've eventually confessed. I'dsay, confessed to what? This movie presents the conspiracy as maddeningly'vague' and I think that's bang on the nail. Each person involved would'veonly known as much as they needed to. No one person could ever proveanything. I was born 2 months after event, but my parents both told me theywept when they heard President Kennedy had been killed, just like manymillions of people. despite his well documented sexual flaws I think JFK wasa great man who could've given so much to the world. This movie is wonderfulentertainment, but it also makes a viewer think too. All in all, excellent.

The third time's the charm...
They say that the third time's the charm and this certainly applies to the latest DVD version of Oliver Stone's film, JFK. Previous incarnations included a movie-only edition spread over two sides of a single disc and an extras-packed two DVD set, part of the Oliver Stone Collection that came out a few years ago. What's new on this one? Aside from all the extras from the last version, only a feature-length documentary and that's it.All of the extras on the previous edition are included as is one new addition, a 90-minute documentary entitled, "Beyond JFK: The Question of Conspiracy." It uses Stone's film as a jumping off point in which to revisit the events of and surrounding the assassination and examine the cult of conspiracy theorists. There is some fantastic on the set footage of Stone in action and interviews with most of the star-studded cast. Detractors of the film (Walter Cronkite and a film critic from The New York Times) and its supporters (Robert MacNeil from the MacNeil/Lehr Report) are interviewed, providing an excellent snapshot of the controversy that swirled around the film at the time. This is an excellent, in-depth documentary that even includes interviews with Marina Oswald and fascinating archival footage of the real Oswald, including his infamous death on live TV at the hands of Jack Ruby.For casual fans of the film who already own the Oliver Stone Collection version, buying this new one probably isn't really worth it. For hardcore fans of JFK and Stone, the inclusion of this impressive documentary is worth the price of purchase. For completists, however, one glaring omission is AMC's excellent episode of Backstory that was done on the making of the film. Perhaps this will be included on yet another future edition of this film. That being said, this is a solid two DVD set for a landmark film. JFK is essential viewing for any fan of cinema.
