Of course it left out a few things in the book, also changed quite a few things, but I have to admit, this is by far the BEST installment yet! It's a mixture of romance, action, comedy, and supernatural...all equally GREAT genres! The special effects were mind blowing and the fight scene was just "edge of your seat". Robert, Taylor, Jackson, all of them have really out-shined in this installment. Not saying they weren't good in the previous ones, because they were, but it's like this director's ways in what he wanted honestly brought out the characters even more to where you were just taken aback with shock. I loved it also how it wasn't just Edward and Bella, because even though they are the main characters, it's nice to see more of the Cullens, more of the wolves, and other couples showing affection towards one another. This movie grabbed the book very well, could have been even better, but beggars can't be choosers. Overall, the movie was outstanding and I'd definitely recommend it and watch it again.
