Expected More, Was Disappointed
25 November 2018
I thought that someone was finally going to tell the story behind this murderous event, but that never materialized.

Little was said about Mary Jo Kopeckne, the kind of person she was, or how she wound up dead in the car of a powerful Kennedy playboy, and how he got away with it. His story was implausible from the beginning and his actions clearly showed an attempt to cover up his crime.

The Kennedy money and political power that they wielded allowed for a free pass that the ordinary citizen would not have been granted under the same circumstances. His claim of not drinking, his claim of confusion, and his long delay in reporting the incident all point to coverup.

I expected an exposé, not a dull reporting of what was already known -- in fact, this movie included a lot less than was already publicly known.

If you were looking for the truth, look somewhere besides this movie. It seems to be a Kennedy love-fest, excusing Ted Kennedy while hinting at the cover-up.

Catch .44 (2011)

A Waste of My Time

The script writer seems of limited vocabulary. His words of choice are "f_ck" and "sh_t". Often!

Aside from that, the three lead actresses can't act, nor can most of the males in this film. Ever hear words like "bimbo" or "airhead"? Good descriptions of the three leading ladies in this fiasco.

We stopped watching before Bruce Willis was introduced into the film -- the only real reason that we rented it was that he was in it.

The plot was tenuous and murky. The action did not flow well. Full of foul language and gratuitous violence, it is a meaningless film and a waste of precious time.

Forest Whitaker tried to act, but had no good script with which to work.
