Summary: Tuesday, June 4, 1968: the California presidential primary. As day breaks Robert Kennedy arrives at the Ambassador Hotel; he'll campaign, then speak to supporters at midnight. To capture the texture of the late 1960s, we see vignettes at the hotel: a couple marries so he can avoid Vietnam, kitchen staff discuss race and baseball, a man cheats on his wife, another is fired for racism, a retired hotel doorman plays chess in the lobby with an old friend...

Self-conscious and synthetic, this film can't make me care. (Unless hating Kutcher's character counts as caring).

I really enjoy watching this. I think it's well made, with an outstanding cast. Really great climax, with well-developed characters; which is a considerably difficult feat when working with so many.

I found the film interesting enough, not necessarily enjoyable or unique in any entertaining or artful respect. There were too many scenes that were pelting you over the face with attempts to reveal something about the human soul.. They had the right idea I guess, to see how one atrocity moves a group of characters, completely different from another, in the same place and time.. A little obvious..and just way too much going on for it's own good. This was not the product of a filmmaker.

Very underrated, I think. I actually am impressed with how Estevez pumps a lot of debth into so many characters. I think it suffers more from the very explicitly political clips from demonstrations and the war in Vietnam, than it does from the multi-character (but not really multi-plot?) set-up. Great performances all around, and a very pleasant surprise.

This movie tries to be a Robert Altman movie but it doesn't have the same overall quality as most Altman films. Estevez does show some potential as a director.

"The movie has no real story to speak of, just a series of barely connected vignettes over the 24-hour period before RFK's demise, only some of which have anything to do with the ever-changing political climate of the early 1960s." - Jason Clark

I've gotta hand it to Estevez. He's managed to assemble everyone he knows in Hollywood, which includes enough greats, has beens, never was's and upcoming stars, to keep your finger pointed at the screen throughout. Sadly they have very little to do in this movie, and the 'Elephant' like structure falls flat because of the underdeveloped stories, and the near-religious awe for Bobby Kennedy. It's naive movie-making, that could have been more with a decent writer/director.

This movie shows the pulse of America hours before the death of Robert Kennedy, focusing on hot button issues of that time. I liked that they added baseball into this, and how it was one thing everyone could relate to and agree on. At points this movie really slowed down (enough to make my date who had been excited to watch it fall asleep and miss the ending). Since I knew the ending it was tough to do much extra with it. Would have preferred less of the lounge singer and more LiLo please!!

A great film with a superb cast: Sharon Stone, William H. Macy, Laurence Fishburne, Emilio Estevez, Anthony Hopins, Lindsay Lohan, Shia Labeouf, Demi Moore, Heather Graham, Christian Slator, and others. A terrific examination on the latter days of Robert F. Kennedy.

An entertaining melodrama about various people in and around a hotel in the late 60s that annoyingly shoehorns the assasination of a saintly Bobby Kennedy in at the end.
