Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Fresh
This episodic drama is set in Dallas during the three days after the JFK assassination, and some of it is highly charged.
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly

Somehow, all this commotion adds up to aimless inertia, in part because the movie lacks a point of view - let alone anything fresh to propose about the assassination or its peripheral players.

Takes one of the most traumatizing events of the American 20th century and turns it into a trivia digest.

Parkland is history as existential despair.
