Jim Marrs, author of the international bestselling JFK book of all time, ''Crossfire: The Plot That Killed Kennedy'' takes you deep into the conspiracy of John F. Kennedy's untimely death with visual and factual information that rules out the lone assassination theory. Marrs' work was the basis for the hugely successful Oliver Stone film ''JFK.'' Now, fifty years after the event that rocked the nation and shook the world, Marrs reveals the facts behind the most audacious cover-up of our time, how it was planned, who executed the conspiracy, who benefited from it, and ultimately why this extremely well-orchestrated assassination could be so cleverly concealed. This extensively researched film includes never before seen maps, photos, newspaper articles, government documents and other evidence proving the Warren Commission's report was a cover-up and a smoke screen for the true conspiracy. Learn why Lee Harvey Oswald could not have been a lone gunman, and that multiple shots were fired that fateful day. The evidence does not lie and all the evidence is here. Jim Marrs takes you through the most important historical event of the 20th century - the assassination of a United States President.

Shameful behavior exposed. Finally. Hard to beat this 2014 expose.
LBJ and JEH, even the Warren commissionmembers should all be erased from history. Our homegrown terrorists. And those who colluded or never spoke up. From JFK to every hush murder to everyone lost in VN war to our national debt. The damage to our heritage can hardly be restored. We suffer now from all the evil these horrid govt officials have done. The Oswalds are owed a resounding apology. All the suffering that ensued. Breathtaking. Jim Marrs' straightforward narration makes it simple for any listener to grasp. While a bit fast-paced, the top 3 docus on this subject are shown at hi-speed. Too much material, limited video space. Who transcribes these closed captions? Words/names are wrong, misspelled. Mess! If I were deaf, I'd be insulted.

Marrs is Right on point !!
Unlike a screwball from TX who does a diservice to REAL conspiracies, who rants on CNN, BBC, etc about "mass murder, mass suicide" pills and how Sandyhook was "staged" and "everyone involved was paid off" so the "guvment can take our guns," Marrs evidence for a REAL conspiracy is irrefutable.For years, as a nurse, I've said the same things Marrs reveals: skull and brains to the trunk of the car means EXIT wound (from bypass or white fence on grassy knoll}. Only gun Oswald fired was hand gun to kill Officer Tippit. No powder residue on Oswald's face from "3 shots on 6th floor of Book Depository." Secret Police practically stop the limo to, in my view, make G-d damn sure that all shots hit POTUS, the intended target, and then they accelerated to Parkland. Judith Campbell Exner, lover to both JFK and Sam Giancanna at the same time called it "a coup d etat" as did the First Lady, who shamed that evil b_astard LBJ, when she refused to change clothes for going back to DC, saying "I want them all to know what they did to my husband, the President." And in 1968, two more good men died because they were going to truly make racist "Amerikkka" a truly great America thru progressive reforms.

It's just okay... People don't understand the real definition of "evidence" I guess...
I enjoy reading and watching movies about both sides of the JFK assassination, but there's never any actual "evidence" that anyone else killed JFK or officer Tippit. Marrs questions Oswald's backyard photos which have been authenticated by both government and non-government photo labs using today's computer software, and Oswald's wife has always admitted to taking them. Marrs also doesn't understand the single-bullet trajectory that hit Kennedy and Governor Connally; 3D modeling and understanding how JFK and Connally were actually sitting makes this an easy conclusion, and he doesn't realize that the bullet recovered on the stretcher was likely in Connally's pant leg and slipped out since the bullet lost velocity and struck but didn't stick inside his leg. One last thing on the bullet, lead was missing from the back side of the bullet (probably in Connally's wrist), and it was not as "pristine" as conspiracy nerds say (humans are mostly bags of water, bullets are metal and don't always get mashed). But he relies on the sketch on the autopsy report which is just a template for a human body with some pen markings for the report, and it's not meant to be a piece of evidence for solving the murder.Marrs also believes the "badge man" theory which is ridiculous, it's a blown-up picture of a space between leaves which is actually the sky, and a soda pop bottle and it's proven with photo-analysis and physics that if that man was pictured at scale, he would be fourteen feet behind the wall and would have had to have been standing on a ladder. The grassy knoll idea is ridiculous because it's a much more difficult shot from there, there's no cover, and the OVERWHELMING majority of witnesses that day say the shots came from behind the motorcade including people who knew gunfire acoustics like officers, and secret service men, and Connally who hunted for sport. Not to mention Oswald's co-workers directly below him heard the three shots and casings hit the floor.Marrs also tries to argue the tree outside the depository would have blocked Oswald's view, but he doesn't understand that it's 100% proven by reenactments, and computers that for the two shots that hit JFK the tree wasn't even in the way at all. Also, Marrs doesn't mention that many have concluded Oswald fired without using the scope (Marrs mentions the scope wasn't zeroed in), actually at 60 and 88 yards any ex-marine could use iron sights and made those 2/3 shots that Oswald made (the shots are not even that hard). And lastly yes, Marrs is correct that JFK had enemies, and his death benefited a lot of people, but motive does not automatically give proof, that's not how it works. Fun stuff to watch, but I hope people don't believe it...

For the experts
I remember the first scenes of "Slackers" , the intro where the filmmaker rides in a taxi and talks abouta cross section of these "conspiracies". Those were the days when I was reading "Best Evidence' about the Kennedy limo windsield that had been changed twice... the 3 caskets at Reed Memorial hospital, the "missing brain" the discrepencies between the Parkland autopsy, and what the surgeons were confronted with at Reed Hospital... the "Best Evidence" is the body...how the body didn't match... etc.... In those days I was shocked to the core... the reality I heard about as child watching the news... Oswald shot on live tv.... it's all back there as part of my early life... but... somehow... I knew so much didn't seem to match the "Warren report"., but it was all a gut feeling... something was not right... what was the truth?Viewing this documentary featuring Mars.... alon side a couple other recent documentaries..... and it all comes slowly into focus...what does it mean? You decide.

Too many theories, not enough tangible evidence.
Author relies too heavily on many blurry or grainy photos. Lots of speculation, based on theories with little evidence. Movie also relies too much on Warren Commission, which was poorly handled. Warren Commission didn't interview all witnesses, nor did they look at all the evidence collected at the crime scene, in Dallas and at Bethesda Naval Hospital, during the hurried autopsy of the President. No credible information to back up ballistic evidence. If you want to see a more believable movie about the assassination, watch "JFK: The Smoking Gun", which uses information from a ballistics expert, who not only disproves the "Grassy Knoll" theory, but explains how the "Magic Bullet" theory wasn't magic at all, but instead gives a very credible explanation of the bullet's trajectory based on the true positions of the President and Senator Connally, as they were sitting in the limo, when the bullet hit them. Too many "We believe this, We think that", without tangible evidence.

For those who still remain unconvinced.
A highly condensed documentary of Jim Marrs book, which is one of the key books explaining the conspiracy.He presents and covers all the key evidence that proves his case.

A very close reality check.
Jim Marss narrates his own movie. This is a short version of his blockbuster book. Better footage and better editing would have given this documentary it's 5th Star. This ranks up with Mak Lane's Rush to judgement and Jim Garrison's Tapes.

Informative but low on production value
I have never read Mr. Marrs book so I can only assume that this doc is a synopsis of his same book. Pretty informative. BUT it gets a 2 out of 10 for production value.
