In the Nineteenth Century, the nine-year-old boy Abraham Lincoln witness the vampire Jack Barts (Marton Csokas) sucking the blood and killing his mother. Years later, Abraham Lincoln (Benjamin Walker) seeks revenges against Jack Barts but he fails in his intent of killing the vampire. He is saved by Henry Sturges (Dominic Cooper), who becomes his mentor and teaches how to hunt and kill vampires. Henry sends Abraham to Springfield to kill vampires. He gets a job and lodging in the store of Joshua Speed (Jimmi Simpson) where he meets his black friend Will Johnson (Anthony Mackie). Abraham also dates Mary Todd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) but keeps his vampire hunter business in secret. After killing Jack Bart, he calls the attention of the powerful and ancient vampire Adam (Rufus Sewell). Abraham becomes a politician and the President of the United States, and soon the leader of the Secession War against the vampires.
"Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter" is a funny silliness with the President of US Abraham Lincoln. I do not understand the reason why the writer uses one prominent personality to write this non-sense story but the adventure is entertaining. I would never go to the movie theater to see this movie, but if the viewer has minimum expectations or curiosity like me, it can be watched on DVD. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "Abraham Lincoln: Caçador de Vampiros" ("Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter")
Note; On 27 February 2021, I saw this film again on Blu-Ray.
