Abraham Lincoln - Vampire Hunter review: It defies review

This might be the most brief review I've ever had to write.  Because this is a movie that defies any kind of critical look.  It's Abraham Lincoln fighting Confederate vampires.  The idea is just too silly to take it seriously.  But I had a really great time.

There were some times that the movie really tried to take itself seriously.  They tried to crank up the drama at a few points but those are offset by a vampire throwing a horse or a powersliding carriage.  If these kinds of things appeal to you, it's worth seeing.

Some of the things I appreciated were the complete lack of shaky cam and the many Civil War refrences sprinkled through the movie. 

I say give it a try.
