Setting aside the obligatory acting and contrivance problems of the time, it's very good. It paints a compelling portrait of an interesting and admirable historical figure, and I like the choice to just look at the time in Illinois and end as he is heading to Washington. The unvarnished portrait of turbo-bitch Mary Todd is fascinating and adds to the credibility of the whole thing. 7.8 out of 10

A simple tale of Honest Abe Lincoln, with a well cast Canadian as the lead. Massey's performance is excellent as he had already played the part in the Broadway play this biopic was based on.

Dated. But an interesting take on the Pre-Presidential life of Abraham Lincoln.

Not a horrible movie, but the melodrama, patriotism, hokum, mythologizing, and historical inaccuracies ultimately drag the film down. Massey looks like Lincoln, but seems a little stiff.

This was Canadian Raymond Massey's big hit. He was known as the definitive Lincoln after this portrayal. I have to admit though that I really hate these older biopics with without any edge to them. All the historical figures end up coming across as swell guys. How about highlighting a point in a guy's life when he was a little bit more colourful?
