I'll admit it, I have a thing for "Kennedy" movies. I guess it dates back to watching JFK with my Grandfather, the man who gave me the history bug and who is greatly missed. The latest movie for me to check out is Bobby. I haven't heard great things about it but it certainly does have an all-star cast.

Greg, I share your “thing” for Kennedy movies. I’ve even seen all the TV ones from the 70s — the ones that all seemed to star William Devane as one or other Kennedy brother. As for “Bobby,” I found it rather earnest, and guilty of revisionist history, but touching in parts, as well.

I am also a huge Kennedy fan. Well, a fan of all US presidential administrations. But, there is something about JFK and RFK. I have heard some negative things about Bobby, but have not seen it myself to judge. I just purchased a computer game called Reelect JFK, where the idea is that JFK survived the assassination and you have to get him reelected in 1964. It is amazing!! You come to appreciate his balancing of the Vietnam issue, with the civil rights issue. You also have an opportunity to figure out who tried to kill you, which is very interesting.
