Best of the Twilight series, battle scene at end was shocking. It was even more shocking when is was just Alice's premonition of the future. The head of the Voltieri bailed. Several good twists in the plot, and metephors as well. seeing all of the movies in succession really was fun. this series is a chronology, so the marathon concept works perfectly. Due to the time in the theater this is definitely not for everyone. I am not a Twilight groupee, but I love going to the movies, so it works for me. Harkins spaced the movies well, so there was plenty of time for bathroom breaks, lunch, dinner, snacks, etc.. They even let us go out to get food from retaurants in the area. Even got a goodie bag with cups, popcorn, and candy.
Hugh Jackman was great. It must have been a dificult movie for him to make if he did most of his own stunts because it was so physical. Good character developement for both him and his brother. I figured his girlfriend was coming back, but quite a cliched return. I like the protection of the young mutants, and how it sets up the movies that came before it. I think the depiction of the government's need for the latest and greatest weapon was well done. It seems there is always someone in government that has their own agenda, and will sell their soul to get it accomplished. P.S. I wonder how long it took Jackman to get into that incredible kind of physical shape. Kudos to him.
I don't think they should call this movie a comedy. It seems like false advertising to me. The movie was mostly a long drawn out movie about a struggling relationship between the two main characters. The male lead character developement was completely unbeliveable. He is portrayed as a shy nerd that seems like he just graduated from high school, and not college. Yet this shy nerd has the hottest girl at the carny ask him out, and he even gets to second base with her. COME ON! He even screws over the girl that he LOVES. What an jerk! Don't waste your money if you were looking for a comedy like I was.
