Well done Kennedy propaganda

Rating: 8/10 (29 March 2001)

Indeed, this movie is very well done and builds up an enormous tension. But: I consider the concentration on the White House as a failure. Today, we have lots of information what really happened in the Kremlin and in Havana these days. That's lacking. Although, we owe a lot of thankfulness to the Kennedy brothers to stand firmly, from the European point of view it's an entertaining lot of Kennedy propaganda. Very good performances especially by Bruce Greenwood and Robert Culp. And a splendid score by Trevor Jones.
