Poorly directed. Terrible dialogue.

Rating: 3/10 (27 March 2017)

Clearly, those who liked this movie were not alive when Kennedy was assassinated. Those of us who were alive at the time do not care for this poor caricature of Jackie.
First, there was so much nonstop chain smoking by nearly everyone, it was physically sickening. Clearly, Tobacco money paid the bills.
The direction was so bad, I don't know where to start. This is one subject that should never be directed by a foreigner who wasn't even born at the time. He was utterly clueless. I have about a dozen films & documentaries on Jackie. None of them come close to being this bad.
The dialogue was terrible & inane. Natalie's attempt to copy Jackie's speech impediments was very painful & distracting as we had to suffer with it throughout the film.
Her hair wasn't right either, nor the pink outfit stains.
They go into detail about the funeral & leave out the 2 best remembered features such as the riderless horse & John John's salute.
They had her fighting with Bobby when she adored him in real life.
This was a bad script as well.
The music was awful, too loud & distracting. These problems were all due to a very bad director.
I visited JFK's grave just 18 months after he was buried. The lines of people waiting to see it were 2 miles long. He was not buried in an open space as this movie depicts. There were graves all around his. But it was at the top of the knoll. They used a smudge pot for the eternal flame until the gas lines were installed IRL.
Very little of this film is historically correct. It evokes sadness because of the subject. Not due to the film efforts. Even worse was the extreme graphic of Kennedy's head wound. Far worse than IRL.
Not recommended.
Any other film on Jackie would be better than this one.
