With All These Bad Reviews...Did You See The Movie?

Rating: 10/10 (17 November 2012)

I like this board for the idea that you can give your opinion on movies. However, what I see a lot aren't reviews by Twilight lovers, but haters. I am questioning whether they have even seen the movie? Our theater was packed and the reaction was nothing but positive at the midnight showing.
As the computer technology has improved, so have the CGI wolves. They have come a long way in the last four years. They were believable characters in this movie. The whole concept of a baby with teeth was most likely why the baby looked like the E-Trade baby. You don't expect a newborn baby to have a full set of choppers. However, this film was the perfect amount of action and romance. This is exactly what fans needed. I can see why they needed to make this into two movies.
Since this was a continuation of the last movie, I can see why some people may not know what is going on. These are characters most of us have grown to love over the last 4 years. You are expected to know these characters without a lot of flashback. The actors as well as characters have matured over these years. Kristen Stewart showed both emotional and growth in her acting abilities. If they would have kept Katherine Hardwick, I am not sure the series could have progressed the way it did.
The only thing I wish they would have spent more time on is Bella's change. In the book, she isn't allowed to see Renesmee and has a longer transition period. Also in the book, the Bella/Charlie meeting takes is longer. The twist ending had everyone in our theater gasping. The battle scene was awesome and they did a nice job casting the the other tribes. The pace of the film was good also. I didn't once want to get out of my seat, although my seat was horrible uncomfortable.
I thought this was a great ending to the series. As a true fan of both the movies and books, I left the theater overall satisfied. It is a great thing Stephanie Meyer became an producer on her own vision. She was able to give input on the characters.
This is a must see for "Twilight" lovers.
