Description:
A film that chronicles New Orleans district attorney Jim Garrison's investigation into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. It explores all the credible assassination theories that have raised the nation's persistent questions, doubts and suspicions.
Amazon.com essential video:
Director Oliver Stone added 17 minutes of previously unseen footage for the "director's cut" edition of his hypnotic courtroom epic about the investigation into the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in November 1963. That fateful day in Dallas set in motion a sequence of events that would only intensify the mystery behind Kennedy's death, causing New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (Kevin Costner) to begin an investigation that would gradually become a personal obsession. Bravura filmmaking combined with controversial treatment of historical facts and audacious speculation, this breathtaking revision of history presents a mesmerizing parade of shady figures and conspiracy theories, unfolding like a classic mystery based on history's greatest unsolved crime. A technical triumph boasting Oscar-winning cinematography and editing, Stone's film is guaranteed to grab the viewer's attention with its daring take on the JFK controversy. The stellar supporting cast includes Tommy Lee Jones, Joe Pesci, Jack Lemmon, Donald Sutherland, Sissy Spacek, Kevin Bacon, and Gary Oldman as Lee Harvey Oswald. --Jeff Shannon

I've rated Stone's 'JFK' 3 stars not because of quality or accuracy but because this movie had a major impact on me. In my first watching of this film, I detected at least one major, and I think deliberate, factual error. One of the characters is handing a Carcano rifle as another character says words to the effect, "The three shots took 7.8 seconds to fire. Let's time it." He then picks up a stopwatch and clicks, "Go." The other character, works the action [once], he works the action again ... Read More

I haven't viewed this movie since it came out, but after tonight's viewing, it still holds up as an engrossing and entertaining experience. Some of it maybe fiction and some not, but as for Oswald being the lone assassin, I just don't believe it. When you hear Mr.X describe his theory, it comes eerily close to what out current President has done with Iraq.
I gave this edition only 4 stars because they really didn't need to fluff this one up by 17 minutes, a reason why it was left on the cutting ... Read More

So we are lead to believe that the JFK conspiracy was the most complex and perfect assignation that ever took place.
Nothing was over looked every i was dotted . Then how do conspiracy Freaks explain the Zapruder Film.
The Zapruder Film is the proof that there was no conspiracy
It was the perfect conspiracy nothing was over looked except the Guy with the Movie Camera filming the whole thing.
Why are the only Two conspiracies the United states Government can keep secret are ... Read More

If you jettison the politics of this movie (and Stone's reputation as a muckracker), and simply look at JFK as a film, it's arguably Oliver Stone's best film and it is absolutely rivetting. It's a masterpiece of cinemtography, editing, writing, and performances. I've only seen the initial 189 minute theatrical version, and that film is my favorite Oliver Stone film. Stone's scope of this project is incredible. He not only makes an epic about the JFK assassination, but he makes it so fascinating and enthralling ... Read More

Stone, more than just about anyone in hollywood, has taken an assortment of God given talents and sqandered them on a career spent in creating his own version of history. What Stone doesn't understand is that if he would have just stuck with facts - instead of expanding on theories generally accepted as crackpot - this would have been a very good movie. I'd like to give it more stars but can't get past the idea that Stone is spewing out his own agenda.
Good if you don't care about real facts.
