Great story and brilliant acting. Daniel Day Lewis wasn't acting -- he actually was Lincoln. He embodied Lincoln physically and illuminated his kind spirit and incredible intelligence. This portrait of Abraham Lincoln was so moving it brought tears to my eyes. All the other acting was great, too, especially Tommy Lee Jones as Thaddeus Stevens. The politics behind passing the 13th amendment is also relevant to what is going on in our politics today. The personal glimpses into the life of Lincoln and his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln, were very interesting. I would definitely recommend this movie. I am going to see it again. It makes you realize how lucky we were to have such a man as our President during such a time.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, very moving
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The movie was visually compelling, the acting outstanding, especially by Daniel Day Lewis and the dialogue inspiring. I think the viewer would benefit by first reading Goodwin's book, so they wouldn't get bogged down trying to figure out each character's political position and viewpoint and ultimately, their importance in affecting history. This movie felt a little like a documentary, but it was emotionally compelling to witness the discord of the times and the impassioned viewpoints of the representatives, as they fought for their beliefs.
Pros great story, great actors, great dialogue
Cons slow
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This is the second time I have seen this movie.
In seeing it again I saw more things than the first time.
I was also impressed with how well the story line went. It did not drag at all. The acting was superb! The actors were so believable as their characters. I have reccommended to many of my friends..
Yes, I recommend this movie.

This story of Civil War era politics and ethics draws you in on a issue that is still relevant today. Even though the outcome is history (literally) the suspense and drama leading up to it keep you interested and hopeful that the right thing happens. The cast of notable actors do a great job as you get lost in the time and place through great cinematography and a well-suited soundtrack. It's a bit hard to follow the dialogue as the film starts but soon enough you are drawn into the story and all becomes clear. A good film which seems shorter than its 2.5 hr running time.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors

A true image of people and era of the 1860's. Execellent movie. A historic event every american should see how we, as a country, came to this point, that all people should be treated as equals. Daniel Day-Lewis should win the Oscar for his image of Lincoln. Steven Spielberg and the crew did an outstanding job putting the viewers into this moment in history. Best movie in seveal years. Congratulations.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
