Surprised me, even though I've seen all the others.

Rating: 10/10 (14 November 2012)

Even though I didn't enjoy the books much (although I love the actual idea and storyline), I am a huge fan of the Twilight movies; I knew this movie was going to entertain me, and it didn't disappoint. Having read the book yonks ago, I had forgotten the ending. This final movie of the saga did a great job at wrapping up the storyline. Apart from one obvious scene (you'll know it when you see it), they did a great job with all the CGI effects. As usual, the scenery was stunning, and there were some great fight scenes, laugh-out-loud humorous moments and one scene even evoked a passionate applause from a three-quarters-full theatre (middle of the morning at school time, so there weren't many students or people with jobs there). There was the predictable (and nauseating) titter from the younger ones when Jacob goes shirtless. There wasn't a great deal of romance compared to the previous movie, which was nice, but the action scenes were plentiful and wonderfully choreographed.
For some reason, the Twilight movies really entertain me, even at 45! I enjoy the ethics portrayed by the Cullen family and there is a strong message in these movies for me personally that is not only charming, but so lacking in many movies today.
So, excellent movie, for me, and, if you're not one of those who decided they were going to hate the movies even before they came out, you won't be wasting your money if you choose to go see it. The only bad thing about it is that this is the last in the Saga :(
