COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Lincoln submitted by SBNB on June 18, 2014, 11:45am I didn’t know anything about this movie except that it was about Abraham Lincoln. I expected to be somewhat bored, but I was not bored at all. It kept my attention for the entire 2.5 hours. It’s a great movie.

Daniel Day Lincoln --- alright. submitted by lisa on August 16, 2018, 12:47pm I mean, it was pretty good.

Important historical movie submitted by gracekil on July 11, 2020, 1:28pm I didn't know much about Abe except that he was honest and freed slaves, right. This movie was so informative, interesting, and so important to learn about our history. Would recommend for all ages.

Amazing cast submitted by RebeccaWittekindt on August 29, 2020, 10:37am I know some people told me this movie was a bit slow, but I found the performances so riveting that it was engaging the entire way through. One of the best supporting casts I’ve ever seen.
