I was so excited to see this movie, and I wasn't let down. While they did have to cut out a lot of details, they didn't change the story which I was really thankful for. Do I wish that they could have kept it exactly to the book, yes. However, the movie would have been 5 hours long and that just isn't feasible, nor could they keep in all of the gore because of the targeted audience. All of the actors really brought the characters to life, and I eagerly await Catching Fire.
This movie really stayed close to the book, fantastic adaptation leaving only a few things out. I will see it again for sure, definitely a must see!! :)
New Moon was AMAZING!!! I didn't even want to blink during the whole thing! Chris Weitz did a fantastic job with directing and creating the vision we have all seen in our heads a thousand times. The only odd part I thought was Alice's vision of Edward and Bella after Bella has changed...it was a bit cheesy for me but it only lasted about 5 seconds. I want to go see it again because I know I missed things! SO GOOD!
