This movie is an extremely well-acted sausage fest. It runs about 30 minutes too long. Can a movie be both good and boring at the same time? Yes, apparently. Watch this movie if you want to see some great acting and learn something about how shady the 13th Amendment’s passing was. Pretty interesting in that regard.
This movie would be more interesting to me if it focused less on Lincoln and more on the politics. A movie that depicts the backdoor dealings and political posturing with Lincoln in the background would be awesome. Hollywood: get on it.
