Very well acted conspiracy theory by Stone

Rating: Null/10 (27 January 2009)

There is a star-studded lineup in this Oliver Stone conspiracy thriller. Despite its slightly dubious premise and desire to consider every possible wacky theory in the JFK assassination, the film is superbly acted and very engrossing. Gary Oldman and Kevin Bacon are the pick of the lot. Everyone does well with the exception of a slightly wooden Kevin Costner. Stone employs his usual array of cinematic tricks but does so in a compelling manner. It's best not to take everything in this film seriously, but rather to watch the fascinating drama and splendid acting.
Overall 8/10
