I liked the first movie, but since I was expecting it to be a bit more like the book, I was slightly dissappointed, but I LOVED New Moon. It was so good and romantic and funny in all the right places, but more importantly, it flowed so much better. The line was worth the wait! I took my 6th grader, and he loved it too. They only changed a few parts, which was better than the first movie's effort, and they left a few things out, as they have to do. But even without having read the book, I think it would still be a great movie all on its own meritts! Go see it. Nothing inappropriate or scary. It is loud with the wolves but soooo cool.
