As for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, it's flawed but highly enjoyable. It has the same action traits from Night Watch, Day Watch and Wanted because Timur Bekmambetov is a stylish action director and has a fairly distinctive style. Aside from the vampires, it was amusing to see how it covered the broad strokes of Lincoln's life.
The whole family sat down to watch Abraham Lincoln, when I watched, and we all agreed it was pretty ordinary, but highly enjoyable, except Mum, who thought it was crap.

My brother thought it was crap and gave up after about 20 minutes, so it could be a Marmite film.

My brother did this with Dellamorte Dellamore. He spent the first 30 scratching his head, and continuasly scoffing and saying "what?" until he left, saying it was garbage and retarded (no offense intended, but he actually used that word)?

He did the same thing about 20 minutes into Chronos, but that was more "boring , and not what he expected"

But it doesn't matter, he's no longer invited to sit down and watch zombie movies with Dad and I.

With all due respect, Mr. Fuzzy, but your brother is what I would describe as an idiot.

It is NOT easy viewing

I will have to do it at least once more - I haven't done the commentary yet

However, a second viewing is NOT thru choice, but rather necessity of seeing all of the disc

In my experience in retail, people often wright off films they dont get as 'rubbish' I personally dont get surprised any more when people dislike films like this, its personal taste at the end of the day.

Well, I have a job interview in preston, it was quick! an hour and a half commute either way though and about a hundred quid a week commute!

Need to find out how much pay and security there is, at it seems to be calling people offering direct marketing services.

Still, a day out in preston at least! (dinner time movie hunting at cex!)

Finally saw Something Wicked This Way Comes last night (in an annoyingly cropped pan & scan, sadly), only 30 years late!

It blew me away pretty much, to be honest. Tremendous film.

To imagine Disney making such a disturbing, harrowing, and plain nasty horror flick like that nowadays!

Moonraker - Yes, I like this film I will admit. Come on it's still far better than both Die Another Day and Quantum Of Solace.

Also, Lois Chiles. :3
