four star

"Lincoln" is very similar to "War Horse", the historical theme, the main theme, and the heavyness are all aimed at the golden man. However, as a biopic, "Lin" lacks a bit of poetry and beauty. This is a biopic of a character, not a French propaganda. Russell said I would never give my life to what I believe because I could be wrong. Lincoln was the exact opposite of him. I gave it four stars, one is for Lincoln, and the other is that it's not easy for Lao Mei to get the main melody to this level.
