Really? My roommate said he really liked it but it looked pretty uninteresting to me

Less than 1% action, too much dialog

When did dialogue become a bad thing? Was it good dialogue?

That helps explain things. Regardless, it's not for everyone.

I haven't seen it yet, but I may be able to help. I think what you were looking for was "Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter."

I liked the random jokes he told in the movie.

As a movie i'd give it a B- to a C+ For what one would think a movie about Lincoln would be about, I give it a D- I wasn't going in expecting any action, but even so, the movie barely held my attention and I love history. It was basically a survey of 1860's politics with a Lincoln subtext

Well made movie, but I was disappointed. The previews and title made it seem like it was going to be a deeper portrayal of Lincolns life...not a debate about the 13th amendment. I guess that was my fault though. If you go in knowing exactly what it is about, then you will appreciate the acting and how well made it is.
