This movie followed the book pretty close, although some of the minor parts, that still had a great deal with the transitions of point to point (like how Bella got the bikes, when she saw Embrey walking along the woods, and when Edward went to the Volturi the first time to see Aro for example, instead she just showed up with them at Jacobs, and he walked into the room and Aro said that he was rejected. For those who haven't read the book, slim numbers, were probably lost). Everyone was worried how Kristen would do with the emotional aspect of the movie, and personally I think she did very well. Overall, I believe that this saga is going to have a great follow up like the American Pie series.
