Movie Synopsis
In 1865, as the American Civil War winds inexorably toward conclusion, U.S. president Abraham Lincoln endeavors to achieve passage of the landmark constitutional amendment which will forever ban slavery from the United States. However, his task is a race against time, for peace may come at any time, and if it comes before the amendment is passed, the returning southern states will stop it before it can become law. Lincoln must, by almost any means possible, obtain enough votes from a recalcitrant Congress before peace arrives and it is too late. Yet the president is torn, as an early peace would save thousands of lives. As the nation confronts its conscience over the freedom of its entire population, Lincoln faces his own crisis of conscience -- end slavery or end the war.

Review For Lincoln
It's the most remarkable movie Steven Spielberg has made in quite a spell, and one of the things that makes it remarkable is how it fulfills those expectations by simultaneously ignoring and transcending them. Glenn Kenny-MSN Movies Lincoln paints a powerful and compelling portrait of the man who has become an icon. We don't need to see more of his life to understand how rare a figure he was - this window is more than sufficient. James Berardinelli-ReelViews Lincoln offers proof of what magic can happen when an actor falls in love with his character. Because as great as Day-Lewis has been in his many parts, he has never seemed quite so smitten. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post The film masterfully captures the dual dilemmas facing the president in the final months of his life: how to bring the war between the states to an end, and how to eradicate slavery, once and for all. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer Lincoln is a stirring reminder that politics can be noble. Might there be a lesson here for today's shrill D.C. discourse? 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished. Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News Day-Lewis' voice is thin and reedy, which jibes with historical accounts but subverts our expectations. His attitude makes listeners lean in, and so do we, magnetized by his kindly reserve. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Steven Spielberg's masterly, high-minded recreation of Abraham Lincoln's long-shot battle to get the 13th amendment outlawing slavery through a hostile Congress. Kate Stables-Total Film The filmmakers write history with lightning, and their instrument is Daniel Day-Lewis as the graying, hunched and shuffling Lincoln, bent but not broken and as tall and thin as a stick figure in a Tim Burton cartoon. Duane Dudek-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel Lewis keeps his fire on a low flame, quietly navigating the underlying tone of hagiography and emerging as a believable man, and exactly the kind of pragmatic idealist America could use today. Jay Stone-Canada.com This is movie magic -- history coming to life, before our eyes. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times Even as a historical figure considerably better known than any he's played before, there's no trace of impersonation in Lewis's performance. Charlie Lyne-Ultra Culture As one of this generations greatest actors, two time Oscar winner Day-Lewis is a shoo-in for a chance at a third trophy. Michael A. Smith-MediaMikes As essential an entry in Spielberg's catalog as his most popular blockbusters and heralded epics. Rob Humanick-Projection Booth Spielberg undoubtedly is asking us to pay attention and learn something - there is no nodding off in this class - but even with all the talk of ratification, and envoys, and securing votes, Lincoln is an engaging, if not rousing film-going experience. Jordan Hiller-Bangitout.com Lincoln is a performance masterclass. Spielberg humanises the icon and admires Lincoln the man - in the face of the challenges that defined him. It's a special effort in the capable hands of a legend. Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show Lincoln is Spielberg's best film since 2005's Munich, and one of 2012's finest. Bill Clark-FromTheBalcony This is an almost religiously revered president portrayed as he's never been portrayed on screen before, a tale told with grace and sophistication. If only for this fact alone, Lincoln is a work deserving of praise. Jason Gorber-Twitch Especially in today's frustratingly gridlocked political environment, Lincoln is timelier than ever. It gives us hope that government can accomplish great things even as it drags itself through the muck and strain of corruption. Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com While Spielberg captures a time, Day-Lewis captures another brilliant performance, and some of the supporting actors may capture Oscar nominations, the film didn't capture my soul the way I was hoping. Jeff Bayer-The Scorecard Review The film presents Abraham Lincoln's deliberations as a function of his innate morality, as well as an emotional rightness. Cynthia Fuchs-PopMatters A fascinating history lesson taking place mostly in the backrooms of Washington. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews Good film, but 'Lincoln' is not a movie about Abraham Lincoln - it's about a man in an Abe costume posing as someone who had overwhelming love for African-Americans, when in reality that was far from the Lincoln documented in history. Clay Cane-BET.com It's a superior achievement for Kushner, and makes for one of the best of Spielberg's "serious" movies. Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide A paternalistic Lincoln who freed the slaves? Bad movie and worse politics... Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews An Oscar-ready historical masterpiece that does double duty as a history lesson and as a reminder of the paralytic limitations of a house divided. Mike Scott-Times-Picayune Spielberg's Lincoln shows us that the nasty in-fighting of American party politics is not restricted to the modern era. Lori Hoffman-Atlantic City Weekly
