I had high expectations for this movie. After reading all of the books I was very excited to see how they were going to translate it to the big screen. Unfortunately, my expectations were not met by any means. The fact that they left out some of my favorite (and very crucial) parts of the book really upset me. What happened to the sisters of fate on the bus? What about the fight with ares at the end? They completely twisted the story and I'm not sure how they are going to be able to follow the other books now that they have butchered this one. When this movie is not compared to the book, I think it is a fairly good movie filled with sarcasm and some cool special effects.
This movie was 10 times better than the first. Thank goodness Kristin Stewarts acting actually got a little better. Taylor Lautner was amazing, and not just because he was shirtless. His acting talents have grown immensely. The only downfall to this movie is the ending. But either way I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone and everyone!
