Part of the reason why there are so few movies about the civil war is that it was such a horrific time in American history. It involved torture, senseless violence, and just an overall disregard for life. All of which this film tackles bravely."

Rather, it focuses on one of the most important acts that the president made during his entire term, the abolishment of slavery. Speilberg's flair for the dramatic, as well as the stellar performance of the lead role as Lincoln, achieves this to great effect."

Lincoln - #3January 9, 2019"This film takes a more down to earth and mundane (considering this is a war film) look at the lives of teenage boys who enlisted in the army for the thrill and adventure of it all and how the whole ordeal changed their lives and how they see it for good."

Ride with the Devil - #4January 9, 2019"The lengths that the director went to film this movie in the actual Gettysburg battlefield only adds to the realism and authenticity of the movie. The decisions and actions of key persons during that battle."

Gettysburg - #5January 9, 2019"Arguably the best and most famous civil war movie of all time. This movie touched upon many sensitive subject matters that Hollywood steered away from during the time but serves as a prime to this day."
Refering to:
Gone with the Wind - #6January 9, 2019"One of the best civil war movies of all time that changed the way the U.S. government viewed many of its citizens as well as how it affected the nation's history moving forward since then."

Glory - #7January 9, 2019"Good directing and visual style, witnessing the rivalry between John Wayne and William Holden's characters as well as the drama of a war's campaign made for a great film experience."
Refering to:
The Horse Soldiers - #8January 9, 2019"It was not the best civil war movie to be made in recent times. It did, however, took a more feminine-focused look during times of war and the old western era in general."
