- Manuel Frangis16 april 2025I just watched Lincoln, and I give it 5 out of 5 stars. This movie is powerful. It’s not loud or action-packed, but it pulls you in with the weight of its words and the strength of its performances. It’s one of those films that reminds you how important leadership really is, and how complicated real change can be. It’s slow, steady, and incredibly smart — and I was completely locked in the whole time. Daniel Day-Lewis plays Abraham Lincoln, and right away, you can tell this isn’t going to be some larger-than-life superhero version of him. This is a quiet, thoughtful, tired man who’s carrying the entire weight of a country on his shoulders. Day-Lewis disappears into the role. Everything from the way he walks, talks, pauses, and tells stories — it’s all so specific and natural. He plays Lincoln as someone who thinks deeply, listens carefully, and chooses every word like it matters. And in this movie, it absolutely does. The story doesn’t try to tell Lincoln’s whole life. It focuses on a specific moment in time — the fight to pass the 13th Amendment and end slavery once and for all. That narrow focus actually makes it more powerful. You’re watching history in the making, but it doesn’t feel like a history book. It feels like a real battle. There’s arguing, negotiating, political games, and moral decisions that are not easy to make. And the fact that it all really happened makes it even more intense. The supporting cast is amazing. Tommy Lee Jones as Thaddeus Stevens is sharp, funny, and fierce. His scenes are some of the best in the movie. He’s a man with strong beliefs, and he’s not afraid to say what others won’t. Sally Field as Mary Todd Lincoln gives a really emotional performance too. Her scenes with Lincoln are full of pain and love, and you can feel the strain that this war and their grief have put on their family. One thing I really appreciated about Lincoln is that it doesn’t try to simplify anything. It shows how messy politics can be — how even when something seems right, getting it done is not always so clear. There are people who want it for the right reasons, people who are afraid of change, and people who are only thinking about power. But Lincoln finds a way through all of it. He’s calm, strategic, and always thinking ahead. Watching how he moves through these rooms, conversations, and debates is fascinating. The movie looks beautiful too. The lighting is soft and natural, like candlelight and winter sunlight. It gives the whole thing a very grounded, almost intimate feel. The music by John Williams is subtle but strong. It never overwhelms — it just sits underneath everything and gives it weight. I give Lincoln 5 out of 5 stars because it’s one of the most honest, thoughtful, and well-acted historical dramas I’ve ever seen. It’s not flashy or fast, but it respects its subject and treats the audience like we’re smart enough to follow along. It’s about the power of words, ideas, and doing the right thing even when it’s hard. Overall Lincoln is a masterclass in acting, writing, and storytelling. It’s not just a history lesson it’s a reminder of what leadership can look like. And in today’s world, that message couldn’t feel more important. I’ll definitely be watching it again.
- Patrick D.23 mars 2025Daniel Day-Lewis is without a doubt one of the best actors of all time. I can't imagine a better portrayal of (dis?) honest Abe. I can't say whether the film is 100% historically accurate, but I know that it gets a lot of the themes right. I plan to read 'Team of Rivals' in the future so I may re-visit this film after that to gauge its historical accuracy. Regardless, it's an incredibly shot film (no surprise from Spielberg), and the cast is very impressive. I felt immersed in the 19th century sets and costumes from start to finish. I think Spielberg is at his best when doing historical dramas like Schindler's List and Saving Private Ryan, and this is no different.
- Charles London10 mars 2025Stephen Spielberg gives us the definitive Abraham Lincoln film about one of our nation's greatest men as portrayed by one of the world's greatest actors, Daniel Day-Lewis. Not a complete biography but rather an intensive study of his final days.
