Leave your thoughts about Saving Lincoln.
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlThe tragic ending the material demands precludes viewers from complaining that the movie is the most unpleasant thing that could happen in a theater. |
| honeycuttshollywood.comKirk HoneycuttThe film suggests a way modestly budgeted movies can approach historical epochs and figures in a provocative and arresting manner. |
| Shockya.comBrent SimonAn ancillary curio about the man and his struggles, at least for history buffs, and an unusual exception to an old screenwriting rule -- a movie whose framing device benefits it much more than its actual execution. |
| Film-Forward.comNora Lee MandelThe innovative look. . .of thrusting actors directly into archival photographs, . .the primary reason to see the film, is particularly striking. . .as visual authenticity. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA curiosity telling the President's story through the eyes of longtime friend Ward Hill Lamon, it's of interest only to serious history-hounds and techies curious about its unusual green-screen production. |
| New York PostLou LumenickOdd and not entirely uninteresting little docudrama. |
| Film Journal InternationalShirley SealyFilm about Abraham Lincoln and his "best friend" and bodyguard is weakened by a bare-bones script, but greatly strengthened by the director's invention of a visual technique that even Steven Spielberg might envy. |
| SSG SyndicateSusan GrangerThis simulated, caricatured curiosity is another Lincoln log that's recommended primarily for history-buffs. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferA bold visual feat undermined by an overstuffed, cold and shallow screenplay and awkward theatrical performances. |
| New York TimesNeil GenzlingerThe whole affair has an artificial look reminiscent of a community theater production on a cardboard set. The vintage images don’t add enough to make up for the visual distraction. The story, though, is of moderate interest. |
