Rating: Summary: Step back from the prozac Review: This movie is completely unwatchable. Well, nearly unwatchable. As a comedy, it is hysterical, as a drama, it is painful to watch. After watching this, I longed for the days of Ishtar again, and went out and rented Gigli to cleanse my visual palate. please avoid at all costs.
Rating: Summary: Horrible movie Review: This movie was a joke. I got it as a gift from a freind of mine, and I must say, it is the worst movie I've ever seen. The story line was okay, a somewhat far fetched thought of what might have been had Kenneddy lived. However, the script was juvenille and poorly acted. The scenes jumped about and were hard to follow when watching for the first time. Random scenes, many including unneeded sexuality are thrown in for no reason at all. Most do not even fall into the plot. I would not recommend it to any one, even a die-hard science fiction fan.
Rating: Summary: Corny Review: This was one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It was syrupy and corny, almost embarrassing to watch.
Rating: Summary: Timequest-the world if President Kennedy had not been killed Review: Timequest shows what the world would have possibly been like had President John F.Kennedy had not been assassinated. There is a time-traveler who warns President Kennedy that he will be killed in Dallas within a few hours which changes the course of history.This amazing political fiction is based on speculation & facts. Due to lack of a largely known cast,this film was overlooked yet surpasses many high-budget science fiction thrillers. This is a great movie. Most Republicans wouldn't like it as it confirms their worst nightmares of what may have happened had President Kennedy & his brother Robert Kennedy continued in office. Vietnam ended before it could begin,etc. The actor who played the father on "The Waltons" as the time traveler. This is terrific science fiction. This movie is for anyone who enjoys the an excellent portrayal of "what if JFK had not been assassinated ?". The time travel & paradoxes that time travel & the changes in one thing that causes many changes is an amazing display of creativity by the writer.This is a must-see.
Rating: Summary: INTERESTING WHAT IF FILM Review: What if JFK had not been assassinated in Dallas on 11/22/63? What would have happened? TIME QUEST, reminiscent of an OUTER LIMITS or TWILIGHT ZONE episode, is a daring and evocative look at the powerful Kennedy family and what might have happened had JFK lived. A time traveler from some future (played harmlessly by Ralph Waite) appears in the Presidential suite in Dallas on 11/22/63, and informs Jacqueline Kennedy about her husband's fate. Kennedy himself is then brought in, along with younger brother Bobby, and in spite of the absurdity of this time traveler's claims, they believe him, thus sending the US into a time of peace, world harmony and "Camelot."
Victor Slezak doesn't look like JFK, but he does remind you of him, and his performance is passionate and controlled; Caprice Bennedetti as Jackie comes across more like a porno queen but she still has a dignity and charm; Victor Grant is an impassioned and feisty Bobby Kennedy; Barry Corbin a blustery and inept Lyndon Johnson; Larry Drake has a brilliant brief appearance as crossdressing J. Edgar Hoover; Rick Gianisi is the third Kennedy child, James; and good old Bruce Campbell makes a brief appearance as an Oliver Stone like director who plans on making a movie exposing the conspiracy of 11/22/63.
The film jumps around from different times, sometimes in black and white, and overall, for a low budget film, it's quite well made, and it can't help but be intriguing.
