This was better than New Moon and I'm a big fan of NM! Director did a great job, actors, editors, as well! There was no unintentional laughter as there was in NM or super cheesy parts, like Bella and Edward running through the meadow in slow mo, ugh! Got a better look at the trio's love triangle and it tugged at your heart in so many different ways! More character development. There was lots of action too. I think even if you haven't read the books, it would be easy to follow and enjoy! There was a range of people at the theater, not just all teeny boppers like everyone thinks. Happy movie going! I'm going to go see it again :)
