Review of Parkland (2013) by Chris M — 10 Jan 2014

An odd retelling of the JFK assassination that is interesting in premise (how did the various peripheral characters cope that day) but ends up lacking something in the execution. It probably could have been improved with a single character perspective.

Having so many points of view, from the Operating Room physicians and nurses at Parkland Hospital, to the reporter who captured the shot on Super 8 film, to the brother and mother of the assassin, leaves the narrative as a whole lacking in momentum.
