Mind-blowing!

Rating: 8/10 (17 March 2008)

I once stumbled upon JFK on Sky One one Sunday unable to sleep , and although I did not get round to seeing all of it, it was nothing short of interesting. I then just last week purchased it and popped it into my DVD player last night. All I can say is that instead of interesting - it was fascinating! Nothing truly is white and black over here as we re-visit the faithful day when the President of the US was assassinated , I remember my father talking about the day vividly and the way he told my brothers and I about it. Truly my father never really believed all of the evidence , and after watching this Oliver Stone movie I truly believe that there has been a fabrication of the truth and that in Nov 22 , 1963 the Predident of the United States Of America was assassinated and America it-self underwent an invisible coup'd'ete. The most worrying thing about it is that in the year 2008, we get to see factors similar to this all round the world which show America's dominance and foot hold in trying to play the policeman of the world. The film paves the way the in a do-cu-drama style way and then paves the way forward for the trial that took place with the stunning of most visuals and set ups so no one is confused and Oliver Stone does this in such an easy way for us to follow. The script is sharp and tight so there is no silliness floating around but then also the acting from everyone and I MEAN EVERYONE WAS BRILLIANT! , throughout the entire movie there is a certain feeling of dread and one does realise that it is a mouse fighting a gorilla. I really am not sure how accurate it is but it seems that Oliver Stone has conducted his research on it! The film might also be long but try to see it as a case study that way your attention will be a lot focused. To conclude JFK is highly bold and provocative film making that probably would not be allowed to have been made today giving the highly politically charged and sensitive times we are living in today. It has to be observed on its on basis and probably requires us to go away and make up our own minds but one thing is for certain , we all smell conspiracy and I am just how the US will cover up Iraq which to most of us is the new Vietnam , this movie cannot be overlooked!
