A wonderfully intricate and intelligent thriller.

Rating: 3/4 --
The satiric edge qualifies the film as a sick joke, which helps explain why the studio was reluctant to support it and why the public was reluctant to watch it. But it is audacious, and it's easy to see why it has developed a modest cult following.

Film Frenzy
... the maddest and most entertaining of Kennedy conspiracy thrillers, a wild kaleidoscope of clashing theories directed with wit and performed with gusto by an astounding cast.

An excellent conspiracy thriller of unusual blackness and wit.

Time Out
The film is funny, but it's frightening and vertiginous, too -- a complex tone that apparently left audiences baffled.

Chicago Reader
Huston gives a powerhouse performance, and Bridges, always likeable, runs through his repertoire of facial expressions and grimaces, but it's a lost cause.

Variety
Rating: 4/5 --
As an absurdist take on conspiracy thrillers, it's close to brilliant -- assuming you get the joke, which audiences don't seem to have in 1979.

Product Description:
Jeff Bridges stars in this film as Nick Kegan, the younger brother of a President shot down 19 years earlier, who sets out to discover the truth behind the assassination in this unlikely black comedy. Nick's wealthy father, played by John Huston, and his father's bizarre staff are both help and hindrance with the oddball survivors of the era Nick meets in his quest.
