Credits to the director, for saving this movie

Rating: 7/10 (30 June 2010)

According to me, all credits should go to David Slade, cause he did a wonderful job with this movie. First of all I would like to say; I don't like Twilight, I used to like the books. I don't like Robert Pattinson or Kristen Stewart. In fact I hate the whole "I-love-Edward-cullen-twilight-is-the-best!" But this movie impressed me. And as much as I would like to say: This movie sucked, then I can't, cause it weren't that bad - and that was because I was opened-minded. Today I think there is a lot of Twilight-haters, believe me, I wish I could be one of them, but I can't, and that's why I'm going to defend Eclipse. Many people was really disappointed with Twilight and New Moon, and as a criticizer you then doom the twilight saga (movies) as bullshit, especially because of the bad acting, bad directing and bad screenplay. And then when you go to the cinema to see Eclipse, and all you can think is: This is going to suck? That's when I ask; why are you here then
Of course it could be a job that you had to do or that kind of thing. But already you say to yourself this is going to be a bad movie, like you expect it through the whole damn movie, and when you fear and expect it so much, I think it actually becomes a bad movie. - Okay sorry for my language, but I have to say this. And then I think that there are also just some people out there who really can't stand twilight, you just hate it, no matter if the movie is great or either. They just review 1-3 stars, cause that's the power they have to rate. They hate everything about this up-blown thing, that no matter what; they will hate twilight, and no matter what it deserve a bad rating. - Which is bullshit. Even if I can't stand Kristen Stewart or I hate Robert Pattinson, then it gives me no right to rate this movie a bad grade because of a personal hate to a celebrity or that kind of stuff. Seriously, then you actually becomes worse the all of the hormone disrupting girls who actually likes Robert Pattinson!
The movie starts out with: Riley being transformed into a vampire, which is a really good scene, and it's very obvious that we have a horror-movie-director behind the screen. Xaiver Samuel does a wonderful job in this movie; he was actually one of the only actors who impressed me with really good acting. As much as I hate it when they change actors or actresses, then it didn't really upset me that Bryce Dallas Howard had replaced Rachelle Lefevre in the role of Victoria. Bryce did a wonderful job, even though it would have been nice to see Rachelle in the last movie with Victoria. Back to Bella and Edward I was so relieved that they could actually "make out" without any hard breathing, moaning, sighs or any kind of annoying breathing trouble. I hated the Twilight and New Moon for having so many breathings. It was annoying to see them kiss while they moaned so much. The triangle- thing also saved this movie. First time when Jacob kisses her and sort of breaks Bella's hand, it's awesome when Edward jumps out of the car and just go crazy on Jacob: "If you ever lay a hand on her!". It's sort of awesome. The Movie is basically about the choice between Edward and Jacob, or that's what we think, but according to Bella it's a choice between who she should be and who she should not be, which I personally liked, since it then weren't all about a wolf and a vampire. Then the movie starts to be about the New Born-Army, we find out that someone is creating an army to attack Forks, because of Bella. That's when I hesitate. Okay, so what if Edward killed James in Twilight - Victoria get over it! All this trouble for just killing Bella. Seriously! But I guess Victoria is deeply revengeful. The movie becomes better and better, cause what I feared the movie would skip happened. Bella learned about Rosalie's story, and why she thinks that Bella should not become a vampire. Rosalie's story is sad, and I wished the movie would have shown more than three backflash-scenes with Rosalie's story. And we also get to learn Jasper's story, which is awesome, not how I imagined, but it was great. And we also got to see backflashes from the Quileute's story, which I actually found boring in the book, but pretty exciting in the movie. Throughout the movie we see several scenes with Riley and his New Born Army that Victoria is really creating. We also get introduced to Bree Tanner. The fight between Vampires, Wolves and New Born finally begins in Forks, and it actually worked out great. There were no slow-motions- scenes which I loved, I hated New Moon for making the fight-scenes in slow-motion, it seemed so unreal. The Cullens and The wolf pack fights against the New borns, while Bella, Edward and Jacob are up in the mountains in a tent. And the last 40 minutes, a lot of things happen. Bella reveals her feelings for Jacob, they share a kiss, sine Jacob threatens to kill himself. Victoria and Riley come to kill Bella and Edward. And of course Riley ends up getting killed by Seth a wolf and Edward kills Victoria. Then The volturi of course come, and Dakota Fanning is really good as Jane, she's silent in a very sadistic way. The movie ends with Bella choosing Edward, which was pretty predictable, and they end up engaged, ready to get married.
