Quincy and I watched this movie from Netflix a year and a half ago. We just never posted the review that we started until now.
If you like political, historical, and/or law-related movies, you'll like this one. Don't know why it got such low reviews from Rottentomatoes; I really liked it. The only part that we felt was unnecessary was a scene of extensive stabbing. The event actually happened, but the graphic portrayal, we felt, was over the top.
Learned
a lot about a part of history that I didn't know. The movie focuses on
the trial of those suspected of conspiring to kill President Lincoln.
Well-acted, but I may be biased as I really like James McAvoy as an actor.
