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.

I have always felt that Abraham Lincoln was one of the best if not "THE" best President of the United States of America! It was about time he had a little fun during his administrations. Having to deal with the Civil war, being assassinated, his wife having mental illness and his children dying like they did, and he certainly did have fun in this very dark comedy. Way to go, A.L.!! Thanks for everything you gave to this wonderful country of ours!

The script leaps forward with an absurdity almost as great as Lincoln's own strength.

It doesn't take long for Bekmambetov to wear out his welcome with a laundry list of generic-looking action sequences: When you've seen one vampire get stabbed in the eyeball, you've seen 'em all.

Watching this is like flipping channels randomly between a Masterpiece Theatre drama and a splatter film on Cinemax. If you're like me, you'll stick with the splatter.

A pox upon history and an insult to the 16th president of the United States. It's that, of course - actually, that's the point - but this joyless, deafening cinematic headache commits a different crime. It's a sin against entertainment.

I didn't know whether to be more offended as a moviegoer or as an American, but I do know I'd rather gargle nitroglycerine than watch this again, though given that the film looks like it were buried under a log cabin for a century, I barely saw it the first time.

I figured the critic score for this movie would have bombed, but I wasn't expecting the user scores to be so lukewarm either. I found this movie to be a great use of time. It has everything a person could want! Lincoln taking on vampires? What's not to love? I found it to be great. My disappointment is that I'm pretty sure it doesn't show anything about the end of Lincoln's life, which is alright I suppose, but it's just something they could have added and made it more awesome, like Lincoln going to a theater and seeing a sharp toothed Boothe. I like how the movie has a "this could have happened" feel to it, barring the fact that vampires don't actually exist. I'd recommend watching it.

The casting, production quality, soundtrack, action choreography and story do a grand job of whisking the audience away into its lore. It takes the role primarily of an action film, with elements of drama, romance and thrilling vampire fantasy lore. While it never quite manages to excell in one particular way or another, its a highly entertaining film to watch. Reminded me of Buffy the vampire slayer.

It`s worth watching, but it`s Abraham Lincoln playing a Vampire Hunter so it can only be so good. I give them points for being unique but I`m sure you know that before watching the movie. I`t was interesting but nothing that had me asking for a sequel.I must say it was interesting how they mixed the facts with all the Bizarre stuff.

İlgi çekici ama vakit kaybı bir yapım. Daha kaliteli yapımlara yönelmenizi tavsiye ederim.
