D. W. Griffith's first sound film, from 1930, is as ungainly and majestic as its subject.

New Yorker
Rating: 3/5 --
It is quite a worthy pictorial offering with a genuinely fine and inspiring performance by Walter Huston in the role of the martyred President.

New York Times
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Recommended solely for Walter Huston's performance.
Film Threat
Working with the sort of mythic material later associated with John Ford, Griffith gives us a primordial Lincoln, perfectly incarnated by Walter Huston, and a dreamlike sense of destiny that his camera fully articulates.

Rating: 1.5/4 --
Feels like a relic, a sad, weak swan song from one of cinema's most legendary filmmakers.

From the Front Row
Sympathetic, sophisticated and, for those with a keen eye, echoed in the work of Hitchcock and Welles.
