Definitely cheesy. Poor acting. It was certainly very similar to the book. Let's face it. Out of the four books, book two is probably the least interesting. I mean...it's mostly about Bella. Who cares about Bella? Most ladies care about either Jacob or Edward. Bella simply gets on my nerves throughout the four books. The only thing that I did enjoy was watching Jacob.
The movie was good but not as good as some people have said. I still enjoy the book much more than the movie and I understand that the two will never be the same but the movie seemed too fast leaving out details. When I read the book, it seemed that this was more about learning who Tom RIddle was and how he became Lord Voldemort and I thought that was cool but I didn't see it in the movie.
