Video elements are too cluttered

I haven't read the original book, so I have to talk nonsense about the movie

. The theme of overhead construction with real history as the background is still very refreshing. Like anecdotes, it can be regarded as a bright color for the heavy history. The setting of the president and the vampire hunter at night can really attract curious minds, but this biggest flash point seems to have become a phantom of the whole film, which reflects the thin

first half of the plot. How young Mr. Lincoln grew up to be a "professional" vampire hunter, all kinds of heroic characters have the necessary elements to grow up: bitterness and hatred, the death of both parents, childhood friends, and favorite plot development , Mr. Lincoln met Henry as his "life mentor". This part is still a very standard savior hero. Meeting Mary is the turning point of the whole film's tone change.

I always feel that the second half seems to be a bit out of touch, more like for The imposition of the vampire hunter setting on the historical President Lincoln has to say that it is different from my initial imagination, because this part is completely like the restoration of various historical scenes and famous speeches, I think The night I watched President Lincoln who hunted vampires was replaced by the plausible politician who stood in front of the congressman. The film's replay of the Battle of Pittsburgh and the final battle between the male protagonist and the big BOSS did not attract me much, because the second half of the film did not attract me much. The plot seems to be strongly driven by the needs of the plot. It is only set for the setting. There is a strong historical documentary atmosphere in many places. The development of the plot is not a natural interpretation. An indescribable sense of strange violation

may be due to Time constraints, the handling of the second half is not natural enough, many plots do not have appropriate transitions, and the excitement of being hanged by vampires in the first half is a bit worn out in these historical scenes and national justice. This is also after watching the whole film. There is a reason for not feeling it. It tells us about two Lincolns, one is Lincoln who hunts vampires, and the other is Lincoln who is the President of the United States. The two are not perfectly combined. It can be summed up as the boss is weak,

but the whole setting is still very interesting. This film once again proves that you still have to read the original book, and the adapted movies are not very reliable.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter quotes

  • Will Johnson: [entering the store, with his back to Lincoln] A stock boy reading a law book. What? Studying to be a lawyer?

    Abraham Lincoln: As a matter a fact, I am.

    Will Johnson: Alright, what about a little test? What's the law for free slaves in the north?

    Abraham Lincoln: According to the Fugitive Slave Act of 1793, Enforcing Article 4, Section 2 of the United States Constitution: "All runaway slaves must be returned to their owners." However, personal liberty laws state that: "Anyone born free cannot be taken under this act."

    Will Johnson: [turning slowly] I heard a good woman once say, "Until we are all free, we're all slaves."

  • Adam: [after Lincoln's attempt to help the slaves] Bravo, Mr. Lincoln! Bravo. You're even better then I've heard. A shame to sacrafice so many of my best men... but I needed to know if you were up to the task.

    Abraham Lincoln: [being held down by Vadoma] What do you want with me?

    Adam: To see you liberated. To see you rise up and destroy your oppressor.

    Abraham Lincoln: [angrily] That's interesting coming from a slave owner!

    Adam: Men have enslaved each other... since they invented gods to forgive them for doing it.
