Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Such a frustrating disappointment
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
When will and abe at the oval office will is wearing eyeglasses and when he said "if you do this there is no turning back" the eyeglasses is gone and back again at the next shot.
For some reason I was between two options, whether to see this movie or not, and I went with the first. Overall, this is something that not everyone must watch but those who are prepared to watch an irregular mixture of reality and imaginary. Good but not excellent, Would give it 7/10 but that one powerful quote made this movie unforgettable for me and rose its rating to 8/10.
First, let me say that we shouldn't be wasting our time with this sort of thing. Things are bad enough without having a generation whose first thought of Abraham Lincoln will be as a kung fu fighting vampire killer. This is all bought to you by the same type of people who run Ancient Aliens night and day on what's supposed to be the History Channel. It's bad for us.That being said, if you take away the CGI super-action, they do create a pretty good representation of the pre-war and Civil War era. Benjamin Walker is actually pretty convincing as Lincoln, especially considering all the silly stuff he has to do. The rest of the top line cast is good as well. So, despite all the problems with this whole thing, I was able to find things I liked in this movie. The ongoing discussion of slavery throughout the movie is taken on decently, almost making me wish that they could inject some more real history into this subject matter. See this movie if you're interested, but don't expect more than the usual big time CGI action adventure that will most likely leave you cold when it's over.
This is a good movie as long as you know what you are going into. It is not meant to be a historical documentary. Some look at it and see the name "Abraham Lincoln" and expect the movie to contain more of an historical aspect to the flick; however, in reality, it is a movie regarding Vampires. So, if you like vampire movies, you will probably like this. I read the reviews from others and they complain about how the book is so much different, well it is different. But anyone that reads a book and then expects it to be exactly the same (Other than Harry Potter Enthusiasts) has basically gone off the deep end. The movie does contain somewhat of the same plot, but it is not exactly the same. I like a lot of what some would categorize as "weird movies," and enjoy the occasional vampire movie as long as its not overly gory, which this isn't. Its a good movie, just know what you are going to see, not what some wish it could be.
