Eclipse - Bella's Lullaby?

Rating: 9/10 (11 July 2010)

Overall, I REALLY liked the movie. I've read all the books. Eclipse probably being my favorite. At this point, I'm kinda 'over' the love triangle. So, lets focus on the other characters and aspects of the movie for a change...
The effects:
Loved the 'sparkle' effect in Eclipse! Best yet!
I really liked the wolves in Eclipse. In New Moon they were beautiful - but HUGE! Like, the size an elephant huge! I know the book describes them as big. But I thought they were ridiculously big in New Moon. In Eclipse, their size was better. Or maybe they were the same size, but just looked better? I don't know.
The fight scene was great! Maybe a bit brief, but great! I like the way David Slade handled the vampire's speed in Eclipse. Probably the best so far, to me.
David Slade did a great job on the cinematography. Especially with Jasper's back story. That whole thing was beautiful!
Twilight had an obvious 'blue' tint to it. New Moon was 'red'. Eclipse is the first movie in the series that didn't seem to distract me with color. Good job!
The make-up was also really good overall. Except, it seemed like nearly all the actors needed their eyebrows trimmed! Bella's wig was only distracting for about 10 minutes. Then I got over it. Jasper's wig/hairstyle grew on me as well. A big improvement over the way he looked in New Moon (for the minute and a half that he was in the movie).
Acting:
I am a Team Edward person. The character of Jacob bugs the 'heck' out of me! Especially in New Moon (the book). Talyor does a good job with his role anyway. Beyond that, I'm probably Team Alice/Jasper. I just love them so much.
Ashley and Jackson have great chemistry and are so sweet (as their characters) in Eclipse. It was so great to see Jasper's character fleshed out in the movie. That was probably my favorite part. Jackson did a WONDERFUL job with his work in Eclipse; as did Nikki.
Billy Burke as Charlie was spot on. He makes me laugh. When Charlie gets between Edward & Jacob to cool off the fight...I thought that was so funny. A human cop stopping a vampire & werewolf from ripping each other apart! Awesome.
The 'wolf pack' as actors are all really good. Leah & Seth are nice additions.
The tent scene was very nice too.
Musical Score:
So far, Twilight had the best score/soundtrack. Maybe I missed it; but I didn't hear 'Bella's Lullaby' at all in Eclipse? Did anybody remember hearing it? There was 'Clare de Lune' playing in the background at the Cullen house in one scene. But, nothing of the lullaby? That's unfortunate or maybe an oversight?
I hope the DVD has great special features??? Looking forward to it.
Peace!
