An amazing film

Rating: Null/10 (12 October 2005)

So Oliver Stone throws every conspiracy theory he can think of, into the story. So, he uses dubious sources. So he takes "dramatic license" at every turn, self admitted I might add(on feature length commentary). This movie is just fantastic, hypnotic. Anyone interested in the JFK assassination, should NOT end their research with this film. That would be a huge mistake. However, they should definitely BEGIN their research with this film.
Great performances all around. Costner is quite good as Garrison. Decide for yourself, Garrison the hero? Or Garrison the nutjob? Stone paints him as an American hero, with nary a blemish. Perfect in nearly every frame. Pesci is his usual "over the top" brilliant. Tommy Lee Jones is both normal and utterly creepy and corrupt, as Clay Shaw/Bertrand.
See this film. Then do some digging on the net. Still, there will be more answers than questions. But it's a fascinating journey.
