What a let down....

Rating: 4/10 (27 November 2009)

I hadn't heard of the books until I saw the first movie which I thought was pretty good. I then read all the books (twice) and was very much looking forward to New Moon as it was one of my favorites in the series and boy was I seriously let down. The film is clunky with absolutely no flow from scene to scene with a dialog to match. I was amazed that it was the same screenwriter. Weitz's spinning camera effects were enough to make you sick and the scene of Bella and Alice driving the Porche was so cheesy it was laughable. There was a reason why Hardwick turned down making this film which she said a quality film couldn't be made in that time frame - she was right. Summit is trying to rake in the dough capitalizing on the fan base without caring about putting together something of quality. Wake up Summit, your fan base will dry up pretty quickly when your putting out such crap.
