I would highly recommend this movie to everyone, if you are a "Wizard of OZ" fan, this is a must see movie. But, I highly suggest, if you have kids younger than 10 years old, don't take them to see this movie, it will be over their heads and maybe real scary for them in parts of it. I saw one mother take her daughter who looked to be about 5 or 6 years old out because it was too scary for her.They did come back and finish watching the movie. This is one movie I will be getting when it comes out on DVD later this year.
It is a very good movie, everyone needs to see this movie. Sally Field playing Mary Lincoln was an interesting choice, she did a wonderful job. The actor who played Lincoln, also did a wonderful job, the shots of him are pictures that you see of Lincoln were right on the money. Especially, the one where he has his son on his lap and they are staring out the window of a bedroom.
Pros well paced, great story, great actors, well researched
EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THIS MOVIE, I saw it yesterday afternoon, it's about us losing our Freedoms and we are losing them everyday. Please go see the movie, it should be an eye opener.
The movie theater was 3/4 full, you could hear a pin drop during the movie, everyone was so focused on the movie. It was great learning who Obama is and where his thinking comes from. Meeting the people behind Obama has he was growing up. I would say, this is a must go and watch movie, if you want to be an informed voter. In my opinion, to vote, it's very important that you are informed when you vote, knowing who you are going to vote for and why.
This movie, Everyone needs to see it, especially if you are Christian, Catholic, you need to see this. It's a true story, this did happen in Mexico. I didn't know this happened in Mexico in the 1920's, never learned about in History going to school. You could hear a pin drop during the movie, everyone was so rivated to it through all of it. I wouldn't take kids under the age of 13 to see this movie, they would be horrifed and they really wouldn't understand what is going on in the movie.
We went to the movie last night 6-18-10, found it was a good movie, will be buying it when it comes out on video. It was nice going to a movie without any foal language in it. Felt like crying at the end of it because it was so good. The 3D effects were great, even though the movie had one minor clinch, which was fixed right away. This is one movie you can take the kids to without any worries. And you don't have to be a kid to enjoy this movie.
