September 17, 2009The only real problem with making a film about JFK's assassination and the conspiracies involved is that there isn't a conclusion.

August 25, 2009Nobody makes films like Oliver Stone. JFK challenges you, disturbs you, and dares you to question everything the political body does. This is the best film of the 90s.

November 2, 2009Oliver Stone isn't afraid to get to the bottom of the mystery of the JFK assasination and this film benefits from Stone's excellent direction.

November 23, 2008November 22, 1963: The Day the Federal Reserve and International Bankers won. JFK tried to repeal the Federal Reserve Act which would've turned the power of coining money over to the U.S. Government and the Fed wasn't going to have it.
JFK was murdered: orchestrated by the bankers. executed by the CIA. -
