Editorial Review:

Description:
(Drama) A re-telling of the assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy at the Ambassador Hotel in 1968. The film follows 22 individuals who are all at the hotel for different purposes but share the common thread of anticipating Kennedy's arrival at the primary election night party, which would change their lives forever. This historic night is set against the backdrop of the cultural issues gripping the country at the time, including racism, sexual inequality and class differences.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Still a Raw Nerve, an Unhealed Wound
I avoided this film for two years not just because I assumed it would fail to live up to the importance of it's topic, but because that topic is still difficult for me to deal with. The story takes place just a week past my 16th birthday, but for me (and almost everyone of my age that I know,) it's as though Bobby was shot last night. When I see footage from the Ambassador ballroom, or when I see film of the funeral train... the tears quickly well up. Four decades later, I choke up.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mindblowing
I was blown away by this movie. It focuses on the day Bobby Kennedy was shot in the kitchen, as well as some innocent bystanders. This movie does something different. Instead of just telling the story, it focuses on various people who were there and traces their experiences from the moment they step into the hotel until they all come together at the fateful moment in the hotel kitchen. There is an allstar cast and they all bring their "A" game. I absolutely love this movie and the soundtrack is great. ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Emilio captures the moment
"Bobby"really gets to you,especailly at the end.How everything would have changed if Kennedy would have listened,and didn't go through the Kitchen at the Hotel.Estevez doesn't bring that up in the film.
The cast is great,epecially Moore and Sharon Stone.Both should have been nomatated for Oscars,along with Emilio Estevez for directing "Bobby."



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - when the world was young ...
A little seen movie that hasn't received the acclaim that it truly deserves is Bobby, the story of the lives of several characters on that fateful day in 1968 when Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Emilio Estevez, who proves that he should have been a writer,directed this all-star cast that takes place in Los Angeles at the Ambassador Hotel. I was a little apprehensive about seeing the film because I'm usually leery of seeing movies with so many big-names attached but this movie really seemed to drive home ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This Shot at RFK Backfired
What a stinker!

One stereotyped 60's character after another is paraded onto a boring movie.

RFK is portrayed as the second coming (wait...wasn't JFK the 2nd coming...too bad Marilyn is dead, only she would be sure to know) and the answer to everythingthat Estevez and Papa Sheen and the rest of the Hollywood activist set believe is wrong with america. Gratuitous scenes of RFK with black people,but the movie gives patronizing roles to its black characters and has then live out stereotypes ... Read More
