I thought the actual politicking and maneuvering to get the votes were the best part of the movie, as well as all the scenes on the floor of the Senate.

I thought all of the Lincoln family stuff was wasted crap, and the ending was weak. The movie is about the 13th Amendment and its passage, going through the assassination off screen was silly. The movie shouldn't have even touched on it. End it at passage, or Appomattox or something The last 25-30 minutes were superfluous.

I thought it was interesting in some parts, but for a movie about Lincoln, to not even show the assassination was BS

The movie literally should have been called the 13th amendment, then another movie actually about lincolns life made
