After reading New Moon before seeing the movie, the movie did not even compare to the book. There is so much in the book that is left out of the movie. My sister had a hard time catching on to certain parts of the movie because they were not set up, and only book readers would be able to fully understand. I was a little disappointed in the movie because I was looking for so much more. However, I did enjoy the movie and the acting was 100 times better than in Twilight. I feel that the movie fell short of the book.
