Saving Lincoln Ratings & Reviews

  • Charles LondonMarch 10, 2025
    It was a novel idea to insert actors into historic photos using a green screen. Too bad it only works as just that, a novelty. The movie teaches us some good history lessons, but the backgrounds are often more interesting than the drama that plays out before them, and the acting at times is more stage appropriate than camera appropriate. A good effort but next time leave this type of material and technique to maybe a Ken Burns documentary?
