New York Times

Like a dog unleashed in a field full of rabbits, he chases one shard of "evidence" after another - a second gunman, a girl in a polka-dot dress --without bothering to arrange them in any coherent pattern.

Rated: 1.5/5

Shane O'Sullivan's RFK Must Die is more of a conspiracy-query doc, but will titillate the suspicious nonetheless.

Wearing many hats in building his formidable case, the filmmaker as incidental lawyer and investigator deciphers the crime scene photos, and pegs known CIA assassins inexplicably loitering there, responsible for covert government murders around the world.

It'll be an odd viewer who doesn't come to the end of the film wanting to know more about Kennedy or his untimely passing.

Uitgebreide achtergronden over het leven en de moord op Robert Kennedy. Veel info maar een te lange zit. Kwaliteit beelden houdt niet over maar dat is logisch....een 5-je

Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars

Such a well made film. It doesn't really answer most of questions it poses. What I like most is the minute my minute attention to the details of the events surrounding RFK's killing. There is lots of footage from many different angles. It, of course, doesn't really convince you of an conspiracy but it brings up all the problems with the official story of the events. Great interviews with all sorts of people involved. Rashomon like. Worth it for any one interested in conspiracy stuff or pop-history.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
