BOBBY

Emilo Estevez writes, directs and acts in Bobby along side an all-star cast that is too lengthy to fit in this 1,000 character space. Anyone who goes into watching the film expecting to see a film about Bobby Kennedy, like my mom, will be suprised. This is a movie about a fixed moment in time. While this is at times very interesting since the movie isn't trying to capture people's outlook on life on a vague period of time like "the 60's", at the same point things run thin at points and there are too many characters involved who are all very shallow, unconnected, difficult to keep track of and difficult to determine their signicance. While the end of the end of the movie does help to connect the characters more it is too little too late. One is also left at the end wondering how much is actually true and how much is part of Estevez imagination. I give this movie a 5/10, for its weird drug scenes.
