Probably a bad thing to say by a foreigner, but I thought Lincoln was dark, slow and pretty boring.
If there had been an intermission, I would not have come back for second half.:duck: JMHO. |
My favorite 3 are Close Encounters, E.T., and Always. I also enjoyed Catch Me If You Can and The Terminal.

Credit where credit is due...Spielberg is a fantastic director, but the heart and soul of that movie was Daniel Day-Lewis. I recall reading a review that Lewis didn't play Lincoln, he CHANNELED Lincoln. The research that that man puts into preparing for a role is nothing short of phenomenal: in the case of "Lincoln" that meant not only never breaking character while it was filming but doing extensive research not only on Lincoln's mannerisms and humor but even the timbre and cadence of Lincoln's speech. No recordings (naturally) exist of Lincoln's voice but apparently Day-Lewis went so far as even changing the pitch of his voice to match Lincoln's, who apparently spoke with a rather high-pitched voice. |

Similar to many Americans who watch Crown, and think it is absolute fact. I have yet to meet anyone who does not cringe at the mention of it, and there is no Daniel Day Lewis to save it either! |
