Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch
Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
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
Lee Eisenberg I read Stephen King's "11/22/63" a few years ago. The miniseries is a fine adaptation, with a few minor tweaks. It's good that they adapted it as a miniseries; a single movie would've been too long. The main thing to take from it is that you can't expect to be able to change history so easily. And even if you do, you can't be certain what the result will be.While on the one hand the book and miniseries draw attention to the question of what all happened in Dallas that day, I mainly recommend it as a perceptive look at time travel, and the potential negative results thereof. Because this is a Stephen King work, there are some VERY ugly scenes, but none gratuitous. It's a real page-turner. I recommend it.
moumin_7 11.22.63, a date that we all know and remember, the day of the assassination of J.F.K, a significant event in the history of the world that has shaped our present as we know it!11.22.63 (the show) is such a beautifully written masterpiece, time travel movies or shows tend to be complicated but this series isn't really, it delivers another point of view on the horrific incident that acquired on 11.22.63, a true artistic work with amazing performances and thrilling episodes that gets better an episode after the other, the series won't stop blowing your mind, and the way it shows the different aspects of the American life in the 60'.Some of its downsides are a kind of a poor screenplay at some scenes, and a bit of exaggeration and overdramatizing at points, you might get bored in some episodes but believe me; it's worth watching the whole thing through, you won't believe the ending!Great show, spectacular performances, very well-written and definitely a must-watch.
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
