Loved the movie but......

Rating: 9/10 (5 July 2010)

First let me say that Im 35, not a tween thats goo ga over the Twilight series. I was very disappointed with the first movie. Second was better, third even better. With the exception of a few things.....
First - Get a new makeup crew!! Whoever is doing the makeup for these movies should be fired. Seriously, I've never had formal training and I can seem to make people look more realistically undead than whoever is doing the makeup for these films. In each movie the makeup is different. I cant seem to understand why they cant get it right after THREE movies!! Rob is hot, they should be enhancing his features and not covering them up with so much makeup he looks like a zombie. None looked undead rather they looked like they were in bad Halloween makeup. Bad Bad Bad!!
Now to the movie....Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. The 2 hours flew by. Before I knew it, it was over. The only other grievance I have with the movie other than the horrible makeup job was the fight scene. It should have lasted a little longer. It was too good to be over so soon. Jasper was awesome and kicked some major butt in this movie. However, If you blinked you would've missed it. Such a shame. The whole movie built up to that moment and poof! - it was over too soon.
I don't get why so many bad reviews, it was really good. The kissing scene with Jacob and Bella broke my heart for Edward. The movie was funny and had a lot more dialogue from Kristens character than the previous 2 movies.
My hope for Breaking Dawn - The characters hold nothing back in terms of acting. The makeup crew get replaced with people who actually know what they are doing, the writers really pay attention to how they write the script because this is the final book. It HAS to be emotional in some places and it HAS to connect with the audience. I really hope that the editors do a good job with transitioning from scene to scene. And PLEASE - no cheesy scenes like in New Moon where Bella and Edward are running after shes been changed.
Get a director of high caliber for the last 2 films. These are the most important of the series as its the end. We want to feel the love between Edward and Bella and share in her happiness as she moves into a new phase of her "life".
So all in all, I gave it a 9. Cant wait for DVD release!
