Ratings and reviews

Timely movie for our country today where those who hold different views and values than the current administration are being labeled and forced out of business or lose their jobs. The cinematography was excellent. Acting was pretty good. Audio, per se, was ok, but I agree that it was difficult to understand a few of the actors at times.

Let's be clear on the true history of the civil war. First off it's the democratic party that caused this war because of slavery. The kkk was born out of a bunch of democratic racists. This movie sickens me because Lincoln never wanted this war. He knew it would tear this country apart. He would have allowed slavery to be kept in place if possible to avoid this war. Only a revisionist would insult Lincoln.

This was a good movie, however the audio was horrible. I had to turn on the close caption just to understand what they were saying. What a rip off.
