Title: An Extraordinary Man Is Revealed As Quite Extraordinary
Review: I found this documentary not only well done but very interesting as well. It brought out the fact quite clearly that he did not suffer fools quietly. In more than one instance he firmly but evenly spoke to his cabinet members while president raising his voice only rarely. Also, he was able to show a very humble side with great compassion for others. A truly remarkable individual speaking for the common man and although not much seen anymore he also was truly a man of principles.

Title: Not what was expected..
Review: I mean I guess it's good, but I'm used to watching the history channel and the way they speak now is so much more interesting. These discs are apparently from 1970s which I didn't know, and there's so much background noise and the narrating voice is so monotone that I had trouble paying attention; I couldn't get 20 minutes into the first disc...

Title: Best Linclon movie I have seen. Hershberger is fantastic in this movie.
Review: I have 4 different videos of Lincoln and this is the best. My advice is look no further if you are looking for a good movie of Lincoln. There is very little of the Civil war in this movie. It is the politics of of the times and gives a pretty good understanding of how the political game is played.

Title: TIME TO UPDATE
Review: This was the worst film I have seen in years. It consists of 3 discs. Very poor quality, blurry pictures, poor audio. The first disc is like it has been patched together from several very old tapes. There is a background sssssssss sound the entire disc. unnerving. The 2nd disc is a hoot for the horrible acting and fake beards. The "n" word is even used, not acceptable in any venue. The information did not deal with the problems with Mary Todd nor their son's death in anything but in passing. We could not even watch the next 2 documentaries it was so awful. The last documentary on this disc is the only good part of the 3 entire discs. It is regarding the Black soldiers and how they were used during the civil war. Very informational and decent photography and audio. Now the 3rd disc is like something out of the silent movie era. black and white, awful acting. poor quality, scratchy, picture jumping all over. no kind of cohesive format. it's just awful. spend a little more and get THE HISTORY CHANNEL AND LINCOLN AND THE CIVIL WAR.

Title: Very nice stocking stuffer at Chistmas
Review: This is a very good add-on for those of us who enjoyed the Steven Speilberg "Lincoln". It was priced well, and shipped/delivered in plenty of time for Christmas. (I bought 3)

Review: Hershberger ( Wicked Spring ) , really puts you there in the battle . Unlike most war films , the bombs are really " bursting in air " Reminiscent of The Patriot . A soldiers view in the Civil War .

Title: Why did I ever get this?
Review: I would most definitely not buy this trash, as that is all it is. There is nothing new that we did not already know.
