Unfortunately, Huge Letdown....Mediocre Film At Best

Rating: 5/10 (17 November 2012)

I was expecting this film to be epic and it was such a letdown.
Daniel Day-Lewis did an amazing job acting--there's no question about that, but the the film was incredibly underwhelming.
I felt Spielberg had this amazing chance to tell an incredible story with the material.
I was hoping this would be more along the lines of Schindler's List or Saving Private Ryan (which felt extremely authentic to me).
This felt more like "I'm watching a movie about Lincoln", not "I'm really there", like the two films I just mentioned previously.
What happened to the old Spielberg?
