How does one enjoy this?

Rating: 3/10 (18 November 2011)

For another month in the fourth consecutive year the world is thrust into the dull world of Twilight, where some enjoy the eye candy, some are looking for a faithful adaptation of Stephanie Meyers' novels, and I'm thinking "How on Earth does one describe these films as 'good'?"
Yet again, I see no ultimate redeeming factor in this latest film of the series. The acting is better than ever, but that honestly does not say much when looking back at how bad the performances were in the predecessors. The second half of the film managed to hold my interest, but then I realized I was staring into a screen. The only real conflict is whether Bella is able to conceive her baby or not. Charming.
Then there's the birth scene, which has gone through media magnification. It's not as bloodcurdling as it has stated to be in my opinion. Nor are the much-talked-about sex scenes.
The undercurrent of the film continues to be the "why it's important to have a boyfriend" message which honestly cannot be cared for anymore, especially when it's in a story that struggles to identify with an audience - do any women out there have a vampire of a boyfriend, literally?
I'm not saying that the vampire/human relationship makes for a pointless narrative, because we've witnessed the amount of conflict happened in the story over the past three films. On a further note - the conflict has happened very late into the films, since the plot is driven so damn slowly every time, taking an hour to fully settle and engage us spectators.
Breaking Dawn Pt 1 is strictly for fans of the series who will enjoy it as much as they have enjoyed the last three films. I've never read the books but have read from sources that Melissa Rosenberg's screenplay faithfully adapts the first half of the novel onto the big screen, so there's a bonus for die-hard fans.
It's obviously up to those who aren't fans to decide themselves if they wish to see it or not but take my word - ask yourselves, how do I enjoy a film about a woman getting married to a vampire and watch their life as a couple for the first hour, then attempt to enjoy the second hour where the thrill of the drama is centered on whether a woman can give birth or not?
Extra note - I do admit that the last shot of the film is spectacular and creates many enigma's on what is to happen in part 2.
