Alright, as cheesy as this movie sounds I was actually pretty excited to see it. Although it was not the best movie I’ve seen this summer, it was quite entertaining. Being someone that likes history, I was impressed with how closely the movie stayed to the history of Abraham Lincoln’s life. It almost seemed like the vampire stuff was an afterthought which I kinda liked. Now don’t get me wrong, there was vampire slaying and Mr. Lincoln had some very impressive moves. He was swinging that ax around like a pro! Overall, I think if you like history with a little vampire twist you’ll enjoy this movie. The added bonus is that it was produced by Tim Burton (who I absolutely love!). I give this movie 2.5 out of 5 stars because like I said, it isn’t the best thing I’ve seen but it was entertaining enough. Also, for the movie to tote “vampire hunter” in the title I expected a lot of vampire related madness and that simply was not the case. Strikes me a little as false advertising. Just my two cents. Anyway, I didn’t feel compelled to ask for my money back so that’s always a good sign.

I just learned this movie is based on a book so maybe I’ll go read the book now. Maybe…
