A South American with leftist leanings, Pablo Larrain was never likely to deliver a love letter to an American First Lady, but nor is Jackie a hatchet job, falling somewhere between the sycophancy of Steven Spielberg's Lincoln and the mockery of Oliver Stone's W. Read more

Has a great performance from Natalie Portman and a handful of great moments, but comes off like a messy piece of experimental filmmaking.
