Probably the worst of the Twilight Saga movies

Rating: 3/10 (23 October 2013)

If Twilight 1 was a rather good adaptation of the book, Twilight 2 - New Moon already started to wander off. But there is almost no way this comes from the Twilight book 'Eclipse' alone. I read all four of them after the first movie came out, and I liked it, even though you have to admit there is not much action going on - but that's what I liked, being in Bella's head and feeling as she did. When the second movie came out I was eager to see it, and a bit disappointed afterwards. But this time, it's worse than "a tad off script". There are so many ways this movie is not good that I never watched it again, even though as I said I liked the original story.
Firstly, but that came in the second movie too, the eyes are really bad. That doesn't even look like contact lenses, it's almost like they photoshoped them badly after the vampire scenes were shot.
Secondly, someone will have to explain to me why they put together the 'Eclipse' book and the "The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner" book. The whole point of Eclipse was that they didn't know, and therefore YOU didn't know, why so many people were dying in Seattle. If you show immediately in the movie that a bunch of new and wild vampires are playing hide and seek with the entire population and eating whoever they find, that aspect is completely ruined. Furthermore, you're not supposed to know that the Volturi know about any of this mayhem, but again they show it in the movie as if it was no big deal. Yes, all of this brings a bit of action in the movie, but if you didn't want an actionless movie you shouldn't have decided to adapt an actionless book. They did the same with that ridiculous fight scene at the end of Breaking Dawn Part II, which does not exist in the book, just so that there would be a bit of interesting stuff. Hello people, if they're watching the fifth movie it's because they already saw the first four and wanted to end it, no need to put crap in the last ten minutes of the movie as if it was going to change anything.
Anyway, my advice would be: Twilight one if okay, two if you must, and if you want to know what happens next, read book three, don't watch the movie, and move on to movies 4 and 5 who stick more to the books, if not for that final scene. If you are not a girl, and don't have a girlfriend pushing you, do none of the above, you'll just waste a lot of hours because there are very slim chances of you enjoying it.
