Abraham Lincoln.
Vampire hunter.
His chosen weapon: an axe.
His cause: the abolition of slavery.
His purpose: just.
His approach: universal.
During his set of historical circumstances, piecemeal strategies simply don't cut it.
And alternative methods must be idealized.
Fighting
an age-old evil whose tyrannical agenda is constantly seeking to
revitalize its divisive malignant incredulity, Mr. Lincoln, with the
help of an incredible woman who believes in the strength of common
persons, and many other friends, including Christian Slater, decisively acts by any-means-necessary, his initial youthful personal vendetta
evolving into a prolonged politico-cultural crusade.
Guided by wisdom.
And driven by faith.
Timur Bekmambetov's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is poignantly pulpy and genuinely clear.
Incisively
laying a lucid altruistic track upon a dismantled phantasmagorical
transcendence, he uses the tools prominent within his own set of
historical circumstances to popularly reconstruct its influential engine.
Working within the system without preaching to the converted.
Or worrying about critical repercussions.
Great film.
