Abe Lincoln in California is this oddball comedy that really leans into its absurdity. The premise is wild; Lincoln popping up in L.A. just to crash a gay slave auction is a bold move, right? The pacing feels offbeat, sometimes dragging in parts but then zipping through others. You get this eclectic mix of humor and social commentary that doesn’t quite land but keeps you guessing. The performances are pretty campy, which somehow adds to the charm. Practical effects are minimal, but they fit the low-budget vibe. It’s distinctive for its irreverent take on a historical figure, and you can’t help but appreciate the audacity of it all. Not your typical biopic, that's for sure.
