 Rating:  - This Shot at RFK BackfiredWhat a stinker! One stereotyped 60's character after another is paraded onto a boring movie. RFK is portrayed as the second coming (wait...wasn't JFK the 2nd coming...too bad Marilyn is dead, only she would be sure to know) and the answer to everythingthat Estevez and Papa Sheen and the rest of the Hollywood activist set believe is wrong with america.

Even the clips of him campaigning don't fit in as they could or ... Read More Rating:  - Amazing castI loved this movie. it had the most amazing cast & I thought it was very well acted. I liked how they didn't have an actor portray Bobby but instead showed tv clips. I actually cried at the end. I would highly recommend this Rating:  - INTERESTING AND MOVING 3 1/2 STARS!'Bobby' deals with the lives of many people who were in the hotel where Robert Kennedy was shot in 1968. The film has several good performances and is broken into small stories about the various people at the hotel that day. I'm not sure how accurate this film is, but it works for the most part and it is somewhat emotion at the tragic finale. Some of the stories are more interesting than others and it does seem to meander at time. Given the subject matter, the tone of the film seemed to ... Read More |
