Spielberg once again proves his cinematic genius with this gripping portrayal of President Lincoln's life from January 1865 until his assassination in April of that year. The plot centers around the political battle to pass in the U.S. House of Representatives the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to abolish slavery. This occurs in the context of a bitter war that is winding down, but far from a certain end. We see not just the public Presidential persona but Lincoln the man, played spendidly by Daniel Day Lewis. This movie is excellent in all of its facets. It is so refreshing to see excellent films about serious matters, amidst the Hollywood flood of fantastic and gratuitous sex and viloence. Lincoln will certainly garner several Academy Award nominations.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors
Yes, I recommend this movie.

In this 50th Bond franchise anniversary tour de force, Daniel Craig is the most human Bond we have ever seen. He is also the best Bond ever, period. This film is most notable for unusually rich character development for a Bond film, one of the all-time best chase sequences ever, very imaginative credits sequence, easily understandable plot, constant engagement mixed with dramatic tension and many placements of Bond memorabilia from films past. A must see!
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, great action, character development
Yes, I recommend this movie.
