When i went to this i already had high expectations. I saw this with my boyfriend who has never read the books and i only had to explain a little to him. Some parts were a little cheesy, but they could not have been done any way else than that. I absolutely loved Taylor, Kristen, and Rob's acting. Kristen's made me cry, Taylor made me start seeing Jacob's side in a different light, and Rob made me see his love for bella (even though i already knew how it great it was). Great movie and i recommend it to others as long as you have seen the first movie already to know the background story.
