A Great Companion Piece to JFK!


This film is very well plotted and put together.

The plot seems plausible and based on facts gathered, the motives seem possible. I like the way they train the assassins in the desert, very eerie...

While JFK is jam packed with info - I saw this in the late 90's on TNT and it stuck with me.

Thoughts? Like or dislike?

Excellent movie. Watch this along side JFK by Oliver Stone and I think you will have an excellent understanding of the 1963 Coup d'Etat. I think the core of the JFK assassination was Lyndon Johnson and the oil tycoons Clint Murchison, Sr. and H.L. Hunt using their CIA/military ties to murder JFK.

Google "LBJ-CIA Assassination of JFK"

Yes. So many people hate when I mention LBJ. But, I really think he was involved in both the plot to kill and CERTAINLY the cover-up, along with the whole f'ing Warren Commission. I think LBJ's work as presudent, developing and pushing through wonderful legislarion, was remarkable. But, when you think of the distinct possibility that he was in any way involved in JFK's murder, it's absolutely haunting. Revolting.

I think an even better companion piece to JFK is I... as in Icarus which i believe is superior to Executive Action.

But all 3 are great intriguing movies.


People who don't like their beliefs being laughed at shouldn't have such funny beliefs
