A great performance by Natalie Portman despite flaws

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2017)

I will say despite the fact Natalie Portman does some of her finest work as Jackie Kennedy but I felt the film was lacking something, at only 100 minutes, I felt that the film suffered from pacing issues and a weak script, I would have liked tot have seen how Jackie and John meet and how she struggled to cope with her husband death after the assassination and what became of her later on in life. While it was nice to see a different side of Jackie particularly when he attempts to give her children John Jr and Caroline a normal life after Thieir fathers death but I felt like I wanted something more in terms what is about her that people don't know.
