I wanted it to be great, but it misses...
25 October 2004
A group of us had such high hopes for this movie as we stood in line at the Hamptons Film Festival....together we were a varied group....from History Teacher, Realtor, teenagers, etc......sadly such a great promises just misses .... many people felt the same way as movie goer after movie goer got up and left during the showing...what does that tell you when ever 5 minutes another couple walked out........ calling Abe Lincoln a "darky" in a silent picture??? and the angle of documentary just fell flat....oh well can't win them all....perhaps next time the directors will drop his private agenda and concentrate on making a film exciting and interesting to the viewer....the commercials thrown in were something only worthy of a SNL skit and implying slaves as property in a insurance commercial might get a cheap laugh but doesn't make this movie worth seeing....honestly my teenagers have put better commercials together in their class....really a shame...the idea was great but the movie just falls flat
