Running Against Time Movie Review

A teacher tries to change history (and erase his brother's Vietnam death) by time-warping back to 1963 and preventing JFK's murder. The made-for-cable-TV movie takes an offhanded gee-whiz approach to a tantalizing premise, as temporal paradoxes multiply in Back to the Future style. No Kennedy assassination-conspiracy theories, by the way, but Lyndon Johnson fans may not like his depiction here. Based on the novel A Time to Remember by Stanley Shapiro.
