Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Sad to say, Oliver Stone's three hours of bombast did little to raise the level of discussion.

fresh:
Stone goes for the gut, but the complexity of theories surrounding the Kennedy assassination might have benefited from a cooler assessment.

rotten:
The film's insurmountable problem is the vast amount of material it fails to make coherent sense of.
– Vincent Canby,
New York Times,

fresh:
As speculation, JFK is riveting. As proof, it's bunk. Stone has turned what he considers the crime of the century into a disturbing anomaly -- a dishonest search for truth.

Compelling info-ganda.
