    Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
    BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
    SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
    Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
    patrickschenk13 Watched the show, then read the book and rewatched. At first I thought it was awesome, so I decided to read the book. Now that I've read the book and rewatched the first episode, it's crazy to see how much is changed. To get full effect of this story, definitely read the book. Still a fun show but the whole story is almost backwards
    dubwize James Franco delivers a strong performance in this TV series that grips the viewer into 60's Americana life. The story becomes interesting the more the primary character mingles with the lives of those in the past.A definitive story about time travel and it's infinite possibilities and the complications of a story of a man out of place with explosive secrets, trying hard to right the wrongs of the past. I found this impossible to stop watching once I started, and that's a very good sign of captivating television worth watching. Curiously, the FBI/CiA collusion within the story is a hat tip to the truth and about the only connection to reality. Oswald, though historically was absolutely a patsy, this show casts him as an unhinged gun nut Marxist Communist with a Govt agent handler, and a penchant for going troppo in the FBi field agent office. Nice twists on reality and paradox concepts throughout however. Despite it's small flaws this is brilliant viewing that makes me want more.{ edit - } After watching the final Episode 8 in the series, I changed my 8 star rating to ten. Despite the plot being oblivious to points of reality ie: 1) Secret Service told to stand away from the Limousine, 2) George Herbert Walker Bush as the head of the CIA involvement, 3) The next President having been pre- prepared to be sworn in 4) and at least 3 bullets fired at JFK, the many twists in the final forced a re-rating from my observations. Incredibly imaginative concepts, with amazing cinematography deserved to be applauded. Wonderful story, well told and despite being different from the book stands by itself for many reasons. Imaginative and creative being but two. The talents of Joe Henderson stands out, JJ Abrams stands out and James Franco DEFINITELY stands out... All the cast and crew deserve mention
    harshalagrawal03 So, I just finished watching this series. And, as with most of the series, I binge watched it. The plot was okay, but the thing that I liked most about this series is, that the ending and the plot was all very well threaded. The result being you don't encounter any plot holes which happens a lot with other time travel shows.Jumping right into the story. An English teacher goes back in time to save president JFK as the person who sends him (a war veteran) believe that everything will be better if JFK is saved. Major spoilers ahead about the time travel rules: He can only go back in time on a particular moment in 1960. And when he goes and comes back, whatever he do will be reflected in his time period. However there is a catch, if he goes back again, everything he has done in his previous visit will be reset. This one small rule is the key difference b/w this time travel series and others out there (which can't keep their plots straight). Also, because the event he wants to stop is in 3 years ahead of his jump. You will see, his one jump spread over the full series, instead of a lot jumps and tries.What this TV series is not - a cat and mouse chase, or a very thrilling series, with a lot of life and death situations. But a calculated and somewhat boring layout by our hero to save JFK. You will definitely think of a better way to do the things that he would be doing in the series, so you might get frustrated. But all in all, the acting, hard choices situation and an overall different way (than most series) of handling situations by our hero will keep you entertained.http://www.imdb.com/user/ur21352722/?ref_=nv_usr_prof_2
    princechin 11.22.63 asks: What if you could go back in time and stop John F. Kennedy from being assassinated? And it so happens that this "what if" becomes "reality" in this show. Questions are asked that people have wondered however you will be disappointed by its outcome.*This will contain spoilers*Stort Synopsis:The protagonist finds a time machine within a closet of an old diner (doesn't make much sense); this time machine can only travel to 1960 and you must work your way upwards to the time period you desire. The owner of the diner knew it was there and has tried many times to foil the plan to assassinate Kennedy believing it would create a better world; he has failed due to the nature of causing change within time; time fights back as you attempt to cause change. Realizing he can't continue to stop the assassination since he had been diagnosed with an illness he enlists the help of a regular and friend Jake.My thoughts:I believe the idea is great, and the show really wanted you to believe there may have been a big underlying conspiracy in the involvement to have John F. Kennedy assassinated; however this was placed into the show to allow it to drag on and waste time. The way the protagonist deduced that Lee Harvey Oswald was a lone gunman was absurd and required a measure of trust in someone he didn't know, and he acted on that and it somehow worked out as usual in entertainment without much logic involved; although logic isn't very much the show's strong suit, this is an entertaining show. I believe however if you were looking for logical explanations and a big climax you will be disappointed.Also SPOILER: the ending is very disrespectful to John F. Kennedy
