Too Long

Rating: 3/10 (12 February 2013)

Though Daniel's acting was good, it was way too long, needed editing. It was the first time in my life I felt like falling asleep at the cinema. Characters in the movie were unclear who they were. I wouldn't recommend Lincoln to my fellow Americans in the UK or to any Brits. Sorry Spielberg but you lost the plot....
The scenery was good along with the costumes, but not enough to make it a good film for that alone. How does Spielberg expect everybody to know who was in Lincoln's cabinet? It was just a total muddle of characters (outside of Lincoln) and would not be of any interest to anyone except a Lincoln scholar.
