Lincoln

Rating: 9/10 (9 December 2012)

It is a semi-rare occurrence that go see a movie but when I do I usually see a movie that friends or family members have suggested that I see. The 2012 movie, Lincoln, was a great movie to see. Daniel Day-Lewis, in my opinion was a great actor to choose for portraying Lincoln. Similarly, the other actors and actresses in this movie did a fine job portraying their character. This movie was also very historically accurate. Lincoln definitely had major issues during his lifetime that he had to overcome and the movie showing these struggles definitely caused it to be a great movie. The movie also incorporates a little humor in it as well. Lincoln's struggles in real life are examined greatly in this movie, the movie includes some of Lincoln's speeches. The movie also includes the action taken by Lincoln to stop the war and the action taken by the senators during this time period. These struggles include Lincoln trying to end the war and trying to pass the 13th amendment.
