This movie is not at all what I expected. I feel like Matt Damon becomes a better actor as he ages, and this is another solid performance. I saw this movie based strictly on the previews, so the actual storyline came as a bit of a surprise. The plot is interesting, fairly fast paced and who doesn't like a good love story? I would recommend this movie to a friend, but wouldn't see it again in theaters.
Seeing the midnight showing of New Moon was an experience. When I first saw Twilight, I was not a series fan, but after reading the books I enjoyed the story much more. I felt that the acting in New Moon was much better than Twilight, probably due to better directing. I think the chemistry the characters shared in the book was captured on screen as well. The movie was not extremely accurate to the book, but it would not have had the same entertainment value if it had been. I would reccomend seeing this movie even if you didn't enjoy Twilight and I can't wait to see Eclipse.
