Stone goes for the gut, but the complexity of theories surrounding the Kennedy assassination might have benefited from a cooler assessment.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Rotten
The film's insurmountable problem is the vast amount of material it fails to make coherent sense of.
Vincent Canby, New York Times

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.
Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Compelling info-ganda.
