Even if one is not versed in history, the title gives away the ending so there's no suspense here. The point of the movie is the journey, but this one is so mind-numbingly boring that one has to repeatedly ask, "Are we there yet?" About 13 hours into the movie, Robert finally shoots Jesse (hurray!). However, the film goes on for another three hours after that! In fact, it may still be playing. There are too many talking heads blabbering on and on about uninteresting things and much of the dialog is either slurred or mumbled (especially Afleck). The pompous narration adds to the misery. And what's with the repeated usage of the lens with blurry edges? Epic failure.
