Saving Lincoln is an unique take on that time period, with authentic photographs of the buildings and people from that era, gave it an unique sense of connection, kinda puts the actors and the viewer back in time, Tom Amandes take on Lincoln was comical, to the point when watching it, I couldn't imagine this Lincoln being elected President, sometimes he reminded me of the Gov on the Benson sitcom, I had never heard of Ward Hill Lamon before, so there were no expectations of this character, we all know how the story turns out, was just looking for some unknown filler to the pvt life of the President, It's a good one time watch, fast paced and well acted.

Troll is a copy and paste of Godzilla 98 with Matthew Broderick, except this has a female in that role, the filmmakers didn't even try to be original with the screenplay, the characters are exactly the same, and that was a little annoying, the Troll does look good, but is giving little to do, and there were no supporting fairytale characters to give it any depth, would've been nice if they had encountered some Oracles or woodland creatures on their journey, the main cast just doesn't connect with each other, maybe they're trying to setup a prequel to give more detail about the Trolls existence, gave it a six because it's fast paced and the scenery is nice as well.
