'Parkland' has some bright spots (Billy Bob Thornton, for one) but is a frustrating account of the aftermath of President Kennedy's shooting.
"Parkland" hangs on a split second on Nov. 22, 1963, when a president was shot, a country was wounded and a city was brought to its knees. This unsettling film zeros in on the initial impact — just four days — for those closest to the president, for the many ordinary people of Dallas who became involved, and for a city that would begin to wear the assassination of John F. Kennedy like a shroud.
