No, I did not go see this. But this was one of the previews at Act of Valor, and the reaction of the audience was to laugh, repeatedly, and not in places that were supposed to be funny.
You might want to look at this artist's works; I see he'd even done a Lincoln one since I last checked. I liked his Andrew Jackson one enough to buy a print.

Unfortunately modern Hollywood has a real talent for turning a good book into a lousy movie, or almost always a less good movie.

ReplyDeleteActually the book was entertaining. We'll see with the movie.
