Revisionist liberal history. Kennedy hated LBJ. LBJ hated Kennedy. LBJ was an insane psychopath. He had people killed. He killed his own sister. Was part of Kennedy assassination. Johnson once beat a mule to death with an axe and tied a stick of dynamite to a dogs head. He stole the TX election for Senate. LBJ had 18k salary but left worth 100 million. He made millions off the Vietnam war, corrupt USDA subsidies, and TV stations. Johnson screwed around on LadyBird in many affairs. Ran around naked on Air Force 1. Would urinate and defecate in front of his own White House staffers. He smoked weed and drank himself to death when he left office never would leave his ranch and spent his retirement talking to a psychiatrist. - @Thursday, October 4, 2018 8:03 PM

It's unbelievable how Americans prefer conspiracy theories over the truth even when it comes to the president that finally made all Americans equal by law and having equal voting rights. Oh, and he also made Medicare and Medicaid a reality. Vietnam is a different story, but the war in Vietnam is long gone, while the changes that Lyndon Johnson made in the American law, which led to enormous, righteous changes in the American society (although there's still much more work to be done) are here to stay. Historically, LBJ and Lincoln were probably the two most influential American presidents of all times. - @Tuesday, September 18, 2018 2:26 AM

OMG.. The worst ...No truth to this movie at all. So far away from what really happened, it could be called fiction. And what's going on with Woody Harrelson? He knows better than anyone there was not much truth in this movie... Don't waste your money going to see it or your time.. VERY BAD... - @Sunday, March 4, 2018 5:03 AM

You know that, when they were casting this movie, somebody at the studio said, "Woody Harrelson? Seriously, that's the best we can get for LBJ is Woody Harrelson? We may as well pick Johnny Depp." - @Monday, February 19, 2018 8:30 PM

why another movie about LBJ we just had one in 2016? And Cranston actually looked like him - @Tuesday, January 23, 2018 9:45 AM

Kevin S.

We just had a movie about LBJ starring Bryan Cranston; why have 'they' made another? Will this one add to the earlier one or what? Did movie makers hate the Cranston film and needed to 'do it right' or what? Cranston really pulled off the LBJ look and Woody? not so much - @Thursday, January 18, 2018 11:21 PM

Damn, it's a shame they didn't pick Wesley Snipes to play MLK, so he could say "Yo! Chump! I'm talking to you!" and Harrison would say " My name ain't chump, it's LBJ!" They ALSO didn't pick Rosie Perez to play LBJ's wife, so she would say "See. if I'm thirsty. I don't want a glass of water, I want you to be president!". - @Thursday, January 18, 2018 8:42 PM

I like the open statement in the movie: there are two type of horses 1. SHOW HORSE that does nothing 2. WORK HORSE which get things done!!! then Johnson hunting with bobby and the saying Kennedy's only shoot NAZI's!!!! put it together and you are the horses? a NAZI is the socialist WORKER party. hence, bobby kills WORKERS for SHOW TIME or show horses in fixed GAMES. hence, bobby will kill LBJ a Nazi or work horse? The movie showed the BILTMORE or Vanderbilt mansion in symbol and the expression the TRAIN is leaving the station... get on board or else!!! murder on the orient express? or nam express!!!!! - @Wednesday, November 8, 2017 12:56 PM

reese packer

imo Greg Kinnear played (and physically looked) to JFK more then any other actor who has played him thus far..as for LBJ check out Michael Gambon in "Path To War " .....still as a guy who LOVES this period of American history and players involved on the national stage ..i will see this - @Wednesday, November 8, 2017 3:41 AM
