Just got back from this. Wow. That was one awesome movie. Going in I thought this was probably going to be low budget and corny. I hadn't watched a trailer for it beforehand, just saw the poster. This movie was off the rails. It was a huge film that balanced everything almost perfectly. It captured the time period perfectly, the actor they got to play Abe was great. I really can't think of anything to complain about. It had its corny elements of course but they're easily forgiven. Fun flick.
The dismal RottenTomatoes rating worried me for a split second... and then I realized that almost nobody would "get" this film.
My wife and I saw the trailer, and my wife was confused why it didn't look like a comedy, but looked serious... but still looked like it couldn't be serious. She got it, but still didn't get it.
Of course, I did read one review of a guy who should have gotten it, but still said it failed to hit the mark... anyways, glad you liked it Tobar. It gives me hope that I will really enjoy it when I get aroud to it.
