Oliver Stone frequently drives me nuts, but he’s a technical master, and I enjoyed JFK — even at the endurance-testing director’s-cut length of 206 minutes. Okay, the closing arguments sequence at the end felt far …

It’s fine. It’s not that good, but it’s fine. It is, however, too long, and the character “development” we see towards the end doesn’t make sense, at all; it’s all told to us instead of …
