I, like many other people, prepurchased my tickets to New Moon just like I did for Twilight and prayed that this movie would be better. I was disappointed with the 1st movie while still in hopes that the next movies in the saga would be fantastic...New Moon did not disappoint! I was AMAZED at the transformation of the wolves, completely impressed with Taylor Lautner's acting skills and highly excited with the way the film was shot. The pace of the film was set up very nicely and I did not feel like there was one spot that dragged on...to include Bella's first four months without Edward. Overall this movie outshined Twilight in every aspect so I am expecting big things from the next two installments.
I went in to view the movie without any preconceived notions because we all know that the book is always better than the movies. However, I was completely and totally shocked when I realized that this movie was completely DAZZLING! It was gripping (even though you knew what was going to happen), real (set for todays world) and humorous (read Sarcastic)! I was pleasantly surprised about the last part. I don't want to give anything away for those of you who have not seen it so let's just say you will be awed by what Catherine Hardwicke and Melissa Rosenberg have pulled off!
