The Twilight saga:Chapter 3.

Rating: 8/10 (8 December 2015)

After enjoying the first two adaptations in the Twilight series I took a look at the 3rd films IMDb page,and I was pleasantly surprised to find some positive reviews,which led to me getting ready to open the third chapter in the Twilight saga.
The plot:
Leaving a night club in Seattle, Riley Biers gets attacked by Victoria,who turns him into a vampire.Once he has been transformed,Victoria starts to Biers to train "new born" vampires for a war against the vampire who killed her lover.
A year later
Whilst Victoria gathers her army,Edward's 18 year old (human) girlfriend Bella Swan grows increasingly uneasy about getting married at such a young age,as Swan continues to ask Edward if he can turn her into a vampire,so that there love can last forever.Caught up in their deep love for each other,Swan & Edward are left horrified when news flashes on the TV screen about strange killings taking place in Seattle. Learning from Swan's dad Charlie that he has been investigating the disappearance of a man called Riley Biers for a year,which leads to Edward fearing that Victoria is about to get her revenge.
View on the film:
Replacing original actress Rachelle Lefevre, Bryce Dallas Howard finally makes the baddies role in the series be fully felt,with Howard's wide eyed fury and short,to the point dialogue unleashing the anger that Victoria has towards Edward.Getting the role after sending an audition tape from Australia, Xavier Samuel gives a wonderful performance as Biers,by Samuel doing very well at keeping Biers good looks mask on,as Biers slowly transforms into a zombie- like,dead to the world beast.
Taking a different route to the first two by not solely focusing on the love story aspect in the adaptation,the screenplay by Melissa Rosenberg smartly uses the baddies to give the title an exciting sense of urgency,by making everything that Edward and Bella do have some connection to the oncoming onslaught from Victoria & Biers.After building a love triangle between Bella,Jacob and Edward in the second film,Rosenberg opens up all the emotions which had been suggested in the past,which goes from Jacob pushing Bella to admit her feelings,to Bella having to hold back her passions to give Edward her virginity.
Kicking the film off away from his lovers,director David Slade & cinematographer Javier Aguirresarobe stop the light breeze from the last movies in its tracks,and take the saga in a murkier direction,thanks to dark blue needles of rain scattering across the screen,and the light greens from the blossoming romances of the past being replaced by stylish,washed out whites.Backed by a shimmering score from Howard Shore,Slade cuts a fantasy atmosphere deep within,by lighting up the screen with rough & tumble werewolves V vampires battles.Along with the impressive fantasy fight scene,Slade also gives the vampire factions distinctive appearances,with Victoria's vampires looking rotten to the core,and Edward's gang looking almost heavenly,as the third chapter in the Twilight saga ends.
