For fans of the Twilight series New Moon will be wonderful. It picks up where Twilight left off and continued developing the characters and drawing you into their lives. New Moon also teases you with new characters and new developments so you are eager to see the third and fourth installments. If you aren't a fan of the Twilight series and didn't see the first one, the movie would probably be a bit confusing. The few "reminders" from the first movie won't offer much help if you have trouble filling in the gaps. So, if you're confused....see the first one! Overall, Think they did a great job. Can't wait for 3 and 4!!!
