A sense of presence, the best action movie since the Assassin League

When people watch movies, they pay attention to thoughts, plots, and so on, but there are always some movies that try to tell us that after reaching the extreme in some levels, plot thoughts are not important at all.

This may reveal a deeper thinking about the characteristics of excellent films.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is such a hearty movie.
Before this film, when it comes to fighting and refreshing films, you have to mention "Assassin Alliance". Throwing the gun, accelerating, and the super slow-motion shootout of the final protagonist running away... It can be described as unlimited creativity, and suddenly the tough guy scene featuring a muscular man's car gunfight becomes dull.

Here in "Lincoln", Lincoln, wearing a gentleman's hat and a decent suit, danced an axe comparable to a Swiss army knife in an unrealistically fluent movement, flying up and down to kill the vampire. Although I don't want to be too much spoiler, but Lincoln and the vampire chasing in the horse herd is really a magical... This idea is rarely seen in the past so many years.

All the shots in the film exist for the sake of "refreshing".
Although many shots seem to have a sense of contradiction, in the face of "refreshing", whether the shots are reasonable is not important anymore.

At the end of the film, the two-person dance with axe is a big climax. In short, the game has been played completely beyond your imagination. I have to say that in fact, these Hong Kong movies are relatively mature, but the special effects technology and the maturity of the lens make this kind of punching feel to the fullest, and it feels even more bunker.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the ending song powerless is used as ED. . . . It's so cool.

Those who like linkin park can't miss it. This is a cool action movie with a little "Japanese" style and Assassin Alliance style. I won't have more spoilers. . .

=============
In addition, it is specially noted
that this movie is not recommended for plot party watching, and connotation party watching is not recommended. . If you see it as a waste of time, you will be at your own risk. .

    The special effects are good, the script is too sloppy. There are also male and female protagonists who look very classical oil paintings

    The spirit is commendable...why is the action scene not fancy to me at all...Lincoln is just that trick, and I will...
