Much Improved!

As a dedicated fan to the books, but not really to the movie translations, Eclipse gave me a pleasant surprise. Finally, the directors, producers and actors have done justice to the book version--Stephenie Meyer can be proud that this is true to her story. Eclipse wasn't hokey, or full of poor graphics and special effects. Don't get me wrong, they're still trying to make giant wolves seem real, but the cast did a great job. Highly recommend this one above the other two in the saga!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Better than the first!

I, along with many others were very disappointed by the first movie in the saga, Twilight. New Moon, however, does not disappoint. The movie remains as true to the book as you would imagine possible with such a large tome. Granted, there is still the occasional insincere acting moment (what's with the crazy vision Alice gives the Volturi?), but very few and far between, especially considering how it was in Twilight (the movie). The cast and crew have grown up a lot, and it's reflected in the great story and decent acting. I would definitely recommend! :)
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Disappointed

Though I loved the book, the movie was lacking a lot of what made this book so beautiful and compelling. There is not enough development of Bella and Edward's love--much of their story has been condensed, losing the depth of their relationship. Some of my favorite scenes from the book were completely altered or missing. Kristen Stewart's portrayal was weak; instead of being insightful and intelligent, she seems feeble-minded and clueless. Her blinking and sputtering was very distracting and almost comical. I was sad to see my favorite book turned into something so mediocre; don't get me started on the "special" effects. I hope the sequels are done with more attention to detail and more closely-tied and representative of the books.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
