what the others say
Total Film
"Arrive two hours late for Bekmambetov's overcooked noise generator and you'll have a fantastic night."
IGN
"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter's heart may be in the right place - and any film that makes people interested in reading up on the real Lincoln must be commended - but overall the film is, ironically, bloodless."
HeyUGuys
"It's not overly campy but it's just enough to smirk at and you'll find yourself saying 'Really?' only a few times. The action is far too much fun and grabs you from the first axe swing till the last twirl."
