leaves much to be desired

Rating: Null/10 (12 January 2001)

overall, thirteen days wasn't bad. it wasn't great. perhaps it was the way the story was portrayed.....i felt that the story went a bit too slow, and some details were left out. an hour into the movie, or a few days in the story, i wondered, where's lyndon johnson? where's the second in command? was he dead during the kennedy administration? surely he wasn't, because he succeeded jfk after his assassination. so i ask again, where was the vice president? did he have no word in the cuban missile crisis and what could've been wwiii? i may be looking too much into the details, but that's just me. i'd recommend this movie to anybody who enjoys a good drama, and there's no doubt in my mind that i'll be seeing this movie again to pore over the details.
