The conspiracy theorists are out...
There are a few problems I have with the film but overall I liked it. The Australian investigator should know that AR-15 means Amalite Rifle rather than the non-existent assault rifle. One thing I thought was odd is protocol dictates that the finger remains outside the trigger guard until the shooter is ready to fire thus making it impossible to have an accidental discharge. Yet, the film's presented ballistic evidence pointing to an accidental discharge of a 5.56 mm round that created the massive exit wound. The entry wound was 6 mm; smaller than the 6.5 mm full metal jacket round used by Oswald. Combine this with witnesses only hearing two shots with the strong smell of gun-powder. The third casing found at the window is suggested to have been a dust block for the Carcano's rifle chamber.

It makes sense.
Well-documented.

Faulty Conclusions, But Lots of Valuable Information
Colin McClaren might have rejected Howard Donahue's theory, and might have realized that the evidence he found indicates an assassination conspiracy, if he had been aware of the following facts:* There was no wound in President Kennedy's "neck. " The wound was actually several inches farther down, about 5 inches below the collar line, well below the level of the throat, which means the single-bullet theory is impossible. The wound's location is confirmed by the holes in JFK's coat and shirt, by Sibert and O'Neill's notes, by the president's death certificate (which specified the wound's location at T3), by the FBI's 12/9/1963 report on the autopsy, and by the autopsy face sheet diagram (which was marked "verified").* We now know that at the autopsy, the back wound was probed repeatedly and found to have no point of exit. The wound was probed both with fingers and with a surgical probe. The autopsy doctors even removed the chest organs so they could see where the probe went in the wound tract, and they could see from the front that the wound had no exit point. Therefore, no bullet exited Kennedy's throat. This is another reason that the single-bullet theory is impossible, which in turn means that Kennedy and Connally were hit by separate bullets and that at least four shots were fired. (JFK's throat wound was an entry wound, not an exit wound. The throat wound was probably caused by a small glass fragment blown from the windshield by the bullet that made the hole in the windshield.)* The existing autopsy x-rays of JFK's skull have been extensively altered, and there is strong evidence that the fatal shot struck JFK in the right temple and exited the right-rear area of his skull. Independent experts have found evidence in the skull x-rays that indicate a shot from the front and a large exit wound in the back of the head. This evidence is supported by the accounts of dozens of witnesses who saw the body during the shooting, an/or at Parkland Hospital, and/or at the autopsy, including medical personnel and federal agents, who insisted that Kennedy's large head wound was on the right-rear part of the head, not on the side or front of the head. During a press conference soon after Kennedy was pronounced dead, White House press secretary Malcolm Kilduff said the fatal bullet entered JFK's right temple. The numerous small bullet fragments seen in the skull x-rays are located near the front of the head, exactly as would be expected from the impact of a frangible bullet to the right temple.If Detective McClaren had been aware of these facts, he would have realized that Donahue was wrong about the single-bullet theory, wrong about the location of Kennedy's back wound, wrong about the number of shots, and wrong about the direction and trajectory of the head shot. This, in turn, would have led him to view the Secret Service's cover-up and interference with the autopsy in an even more negative light. This would have also led him to realize that a gunman fired at Kennedy from the front, in addition to the gunman who fired at him from the rear.

THE most comprehensive documentary on who killed JFK
I've seen many different documentaries on the JFK assassination and none of them compare to this one. The level of research and analysis that went into the conclusions of this film must've been exhaustive.Ignore the negative reviews of conspiritards who want to blame space reptiles and Umbrella men. Sometimes the truth is boring and quantitative.

OPEN your mind, watch and share with everyone
I've been a conspiracy theorist ever since the week of JFK's assassination when I saw glaring oddities all on my own at 8-years-old. My dad also pointed out things that weren't adding up. I've had my own strong theory that I've heard no one else talk of. I've carefully scrutinized the dozen or so different theories, but keep seeing how each one had spectacular & unique information bits that would blow up all the others--they are all "doesn't make sense" when looking at all the pieces ... This film changed me. It makes sense of all the pieces REGARDING WHO FIRED THE FATAL SHOT.......... Here's the key point that I'm ashamed I hadn't recognized before, and none of the many other theories highlights. First, we KNOW one or more bullets hit JFK (through the neck-throat) and hit Connolly. Fact: They were all tiny In-and-Out holes--what we would expect from a subsonic full metal jacket. That's what everyone agrees Oswald had.......... Second, that kind of ammo round could Not have blasted JFK's head open! It would have made a tiny hole in, tiny hole out. Such damage requires a hollow-point, soft-point or a super-sonic speed on the bullet at the time of impact.......... NOW, ... IF you want your favorite theory about Oswald, you can go right ahead and have it. THIS film addresses the "explosive" bullet. Even though I had my own personal Conspiracy Theory, I was rarely Totally convinced there was a conspiracy to kill JFK. BUT I was always certain the government was hiding something. THAT makes perfect sense with the explanation in this documentary.

Loved it.
I was 13 yrs old when JFK was assasinated and of course anyone who was alive and past the age of remembers exactly where they were and what they were doing when they heard the news of this tragedy....and after watching this documentory you will see what a horrible tragedy it truly was. All the years since then and listening to all the conspiracy theories this one in my opinion answers all the questions....everything fits and I truly believe that this is what ha ppened on that fateful day. I am so glad I watched it and now that I have bought fhe dvd I can show everyone what actually did happened to that well loved president. Watch the movie...you won't be disappointed!

Most intriguing! Must watch!
Needs to be seen by all of our generation to understand the reality of what really seems to have happened and while still Oswald's involvement was another path that needs declaration...this is fabulous based on facts and evidence.
