What a outstanding story plot and a host of actors lead by Eastwood to capture a timeless moment in the tragic past of America. As a baby boomer the movie to me was close to home as it applies to what can happen "behind the scenes" during a tragedy such as the assassination of J.F.K.

Great action-suspense movie with Clint Eastwood as an older Secret Service agent who was in Dallas on November 22,1963 and carries the guilt of losing the President on that day. Flash forward 30 years later and he is still a Secret Service agent protecting the current POTUS against a crazed would be assassin John Malkovich. Renee Russo is great as a female Secret Service officer. Good acting by Clint Eastwood. John Malkovich will keep you on the edge of your seat.

I mean, start with Clint Eastwood, add Renee Russo, and stir in the ever-insane John Malcovitch..... recipe for a thrilling action adventure SUPREME!! Infuse the JFK assassination, sprinkle with Black Ops ....oh, MY.... hold on to your breeches, this is going to be a wild ride! ENJOY!!!

Edge of your seat movies. Brings back memories from the '60s when Kennedy was shot. Meaningful, great acting, one of those you watch over and over. Has the Eastwood dry humor, which is delightful.
