Much better than the first movie!! As with Twilight, it was nice being able to take my pre-teen daughter to a PG-13 movie that was appropriate for her age throughout the entire film. I thought this movie continued to be fairly true to the book which was very nice to see. Pretty good special effects during the shape shifting scenes. Overall, very good movie.
I took my 11 year old daughter and her friend to see the movie and thought it was a fantastic film for preteens and teens. It's great to have a PG-13 movie I can take my daughter to without worrying about bad language or inappropriate content. The movie was very well made and came as close to the book as it could for a 2 hour movie. I look forward to taking my daughter to the next movie in this series!
