Abraham Lincoln:
And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder. I looked, and behold, it was Death, saying, "Come and see." And I saw... and Hell followed me.
User Review
Solid all around flick with fantastic action
Rating:
Just got back from an advanced screening that was the (according to the
director) first screening seen by people outside of the cast/crew of
the movie. Overall I was very impressed, having never read the book I
did not really know what to expect. Acting was good, nothing Oscar
worthy but no poor performances. Everyone did their job well,
especially Benjamin Walker and Dominic Cooper. They both excelled in
their roles as Lincoln and Henry respectively. Plot flowed well and was
easy to follow, and the action was absolutely fantastic. It was over
the top, fast paced, bloody, and very well done. If you don't mind
seeing vampires getting hacked, slashed, and bashed to death in a wide
variety of ways, you'll enjoy this movie.
