![]() ![]() I was reminded uncannily of Buford Pusser, walking tall and carrying a big stick.Īgainst Henry's advice, Lincoln ( Benjamin Walker) marries Mary Todd ( Mary Elizabeth Winstead), and the story moves quickly to his days in the White House, where he discovers that the vampires are fighting on the side of the South. That he carries this axe with him much of the time may strike some as peculiar. Lincoln's weapon of choice becomes an axe with a silver blade, which he learns to spin like a drum major's baton. Then whatever can he do? "Well," he tells Henry, "I used to be pretty good at rail-splitting…" This line drew only a few chuckles from the audience, because the movie cautiously avoids any attempt to seem funny. There's an early scene in which Lincoln tries to shoot a vampire, but that won't work because they're already dead. ![]()
