Review For Saving Lincoln
The film feels like an animated Wikipedia page, just sort of running through the greatest hits of Lincoln's life in office - the Emancipation Proclamation! Gettysburg! The Theater! - without any real insight.Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
Note to filmmakers: Just because you can do something doesn't necessarily mean you should do it.
Neil Genzlinger-New York Times
Comes off like a View-Master version of a tale already told.
Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News
Litvak's shoestring production sketches in episodes from Lincoln's entire administration, including a strange "Dixie'' singalong on the White House steps to mark the end of the war.
Lou Lumenick-New York Post
The script, while largely historically accurate, is undermined by stilted dialogue, and the pic is laced with ill-fitting parts that wind up literally all over the matte.
Bill Edelstein-Variety
Imagine the stiffness of a Star Wars prequel but without the bravura technique.
Alan Scherstuhl-Village Voice
An 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.
Brent Simon-Shockya.com
The innovative look. . .of thrusting actors directly into archival photographs, . .the primary reason to see the film, is particularly striking. . .as visual authenticity.
Nora Lee Mandel-Film-Forward.com
A bold visual feat undermined by an overstuffed, cold and shallow screenplay and awkward theatrical performances.
Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
The film suggests a way modestly budgeted movies can approach historical epochs and figures in a provocative and arresting manner.
Kirk Honeycutt-honeycuttshollywood.com
Under even the best of circumstances, Saving Lincoln would have to inevitably face the scrutiny of potential redundancy.
Ed Gonzalez-Slant Magazine
This simulated, caricatured curiosity is another Lincoln log that's recommended primarily for history-buffs.
Susan Granger-SSG Syndicate
Film 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.
Shirley Sealy-Film Journal International
Like a movie-watching day in class that makes you miss the thrilling rhetoric of a lecture.
Matt Pais-RedEye
A fresh take on The Great Emancipator from the point-of-view of a trusted companion who had been at the President's side at Gettysburg and for many historical moments but not on the day he died.
