http://urllio.com/r2nl4At the age of 9, Abraham Lincoln witnesses his mother being killed by a vampire, Jack Barts. Some 10 years later, he unsuccessfully tries to eliminate Barts but in the process makes the acquaintance of Henry Sturgess who teaches him how to fight and what is required to kill a vampire. The quid pro quo is that Abe will kill only those vampires that Henry directs him to. Abe relocates to Springfield where he gets a job as a store clerk while he studies the law and kills vampires by night. He also meets and eventually marries the pretty Mary Todd. Many years later as President of the United States, he comes to realize that vampires are fighting with the Confederate forces. As a result he mounts his own campaign to defeat them.
This movie is about a young Abraham Lincoln who loses his mother after she is killed by Jack Barts, a vampire (she dies in front of him), so he grows up wanting to kill the person who killed her and while at a bar getting drunk he meets Henry Sturges, a person who teaches him how to fight and hunt Vampires. As time goes by he kills many Vampires, except the one who killed his mother, and he's getting impatient. He moves to Springfield and takes on a "normal" job as a store clerk and meets Mary Todd, who eventually becomes his wife. But the normal life is a cover for what he really needs to do, kill Vampires. So he becomes political and uses his popularity to climb the ranks to eventually become President while at the same time trying to take out the Vampire population, and eventually kill the head Vampire, and the one who killed his mother.
I put off watching this movie for one reason and that is the god awful title. But after reading many positive reviews on here I decided to give it a watch. First thing I will say is this movie was entertaining and if thats all I judged movies on I would have given this a much higher rating. Due to the fact I judge movies on a whole I give this pretty low and heres why.<br/><br/>The acting is pretty atrocious. Some people will argue and say its good but it really isn't. The second thing is the constant inaccuracies such as making silver ball bearing for repeater rifles? which of course wouldn't work. Or ball bearings for revolvers....yes revolvers....Or the fact you see the vamps with a huge mouth of teeth but when they bite they only use the typical two sharp ones. Really makes no sense.<br/><br/>This movie is about Abraham Lincoln as he is growing up and discovers there is vampires everywhere. He teams up with one to destroy the vampires and save America.<br/><br/>This movie was OK but I wont give it another watch. The acting, the inaccuracies and the ridiculous action sequences make this movie pretty terrible. Everyone who liked this will have to explain to me why.
As a movie, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is kind of a mess. There is no denying that there is some fun to be found here, especially if you're into the so-bad-it's-good genre. The cast is adequate and visually, it is quite striking. If you're looking for something any more substantial, I would suggest considerably lowering your expectations. I caught the midnight show.<br/><br/>If you know the title, you can pretty much figure out the plot. We follow Abe Lincoln on a life- long journey after discovering that the creature who killed his mother was indeed a vampire. Along the way, he meets the love of his life and a fellow hunter who shows him the ropes.<br/><br/>So right off the bat: I wasn't expecting an Award-winning film here. I mean, do you go into a movie called Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and expect something extraordinary? Hell no. That said though, even with a premise as silly as this one you still have to find ways to make it work, ways to engage the audience beyond anything glimpsed here. For me personally, this movie just does not work when it needs to.<br/><br/>The casting isn't the problem; everyone is actually quite good including the big man himself, played by a dashing Benjamin Walker. I did have a big issue with the aging makeup, though not so much on Abe. Everyone around him is supposed to get older as the time passes, and yet no one looks to be aged within ten years of Abe. I can understand some minor discrepancies, but seriously? The makeup on Mary Elizabeth Winstead made her look about five years older. The visual look of the film also isn't the problem, even though the special effects are overly shoddy at times and can pull you right out of the movie. Overseen by Tim Burton, the cinematography looks great even when the special effects don't. The action scenes usually fall pretty flat for the most part and didn't really impress me much. The whole section where Abe hunts down his mother's killer made me practically keel over from laughter, it was so preposterous. <br/><br/>For me, the biggest problem lies in the script which relies quite a bit too much on the historical side of things without doing anything to really flesh out the characters. It also takes itself much, much too seriously for the movie's own good. Some dialogue and even entire situations don't make the slightest bit of sense. For instance, (minor spoiler here) it is established early on that one vampire cannot harm another vampire. So why, in one specific instance, does the very opposite of this established rule occur? There is no given explanation. There are all sorts of little plot holes, issues with the mythology, and logical impossibilities that definitely bothered me (how was Abe's hat able to hold the entire body weight of Mary without capsizing?), but there was quite a lot that I was willing to let slide.<br/><br/>The positives: An energetic Dominic Cooper. Benjamin Walker completely immerses himself in the role of Abe and is believable even when the situations aren't. The visually pleasing look of the film. Lots to laugh at, even when it's unintentional. The look of the vampires. The comical overuse of slow-motion. <br/><br/>Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter isn't your typical vampire movie and it certainly doesn't establish any of the mythology to an understandable extent. However, I laughed
a lot. It was a fun throwaway movie and certainly could have been much worse. Hilarity ensues from the second the movie begins. If you're looking forward to this flick, I would wait to check it out on DVD. The 3D was absolutely terrible and there was nothing that popped out at all, unless you count a few specks of dust. / Rating: D+
Genre enthusiasts will lap up the mixture of action and fantasy, while history buffs who don't mind a bit of rewriting will dig into an alternative spin on the Civil War period.
Abraham Lincoln (<a href="/name/nm0907548/">Benjamin Walker</a>), the 16th President of the United States [March 1861 to April 1865], tells in his diary about his secret life that evolved after he witnessed the death of his mother in 1818. His father said that she was poisoned by wealthy plantation owner Jack Barts (<a href="/name/nm0190744/">Marton Csokas</a>) but, 10 years later, Abraham learns that Barts is actually a vampire and sets out to kill him. Along the way, he meets and is trained by vampire hunter Henry Sturges (<a href="/name/nm1002641/">Dominic Cooper</a>), woos and marries Mary Todd (<a href="/name/nm0935541/">Mary Elizabeth Winstead</a>), fights to abolish slavery, and, with the help of his boyhood friend Will Johnson (<a href="/name/nm1107001/">Anthony Mackie</a>) and boss Joshua Speed (<a href="/name/nm0801051/">Jimmi Simpson</a>), is forced to defeat the powerful head vampire Adam (<a href="/name/nm0001722/">Rufus Sewell</a>), who is planning to take over the United States and create a nation of the Undead. Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is also a 2010 novel by American novelist Seth Grahame-Smith. The novel was adapted for the film by Smith and English-born American screenwriter Simon Kinberg. Angered to find that the train is carrying rocks, Adam goes after Abraham, screaming, "Where's the silver?" "Right here," Abraham replies and plunges his fist, holding the silver pocket watch, into Adam's chest, destroying him. Abraham, Will, and Henry then escape from the train just before the burning trestle collapses. This time, when Henry asks, "Where's the silver?", Abraham reveals that Mary and the freed slaves have transported it out of Washington through the Underground Railroad to Gettysburg where it's already being fashioned into bullets and bayonets to use against the vampire army. The scene then cuts to 19 November 1863, the day on which President Lincoln delivers the Gettysburg Address at the cemetery's dedication. This scene then cuts to 14 April 1865. Lincoln is making a few notes in his diary, while Mary admonishes him to hurry up or they will be late for the theater. Henry tries to convince him to be made immortal so that they can fight vampires through the ages side-by-side, but Lincoln turns him down. As Abraham and Mary's carriage pulls away, Lincoln says in a voice-over: History prefers legends to men. It prefers nobility to brutality, soaring speeches to quiet deeds. History remembers the battle and forgets the blood. However history remembers me, if it does at all, it shall only remember a fraction of the truth. In the final scene, which takes place in modern time, Henry Sturges is sitting in a bar next to an obviously drunk young man. Henry turns to him and says, "A guy only gets that drunk when he wants to kiss a girl or kill a man. So which is it?" He nudges the man and a gun falls to the floor. No. The last thing before the "full credits" is the drawing made with blood. There are many sites where Lincoln's Gettysburg Address can be read, but it's a short speech, easily presented here. Lincoln said: Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. a5c7b9f00b
