Both Twilight and New Moon are both very good adaptations of the Stephanie books

Rating: 10/10 (9 December 2009)

I had seen "New Moon" on Friday, and I thought both "Twilight" and "New Moon" are both very good adaptations of the Stephenie Meyers books; I am not one to take sides. Of course, I did not like some of the negativity on the two films from some fans of the original novel series; nor on Kirsten Steward as Bella - she's alright.
The film starts on Bella's 18th birthday, who had just woke up from a premonition-type dream of her and Edward Cullen: she came running out of the woods, and now she is in a clearing. Across from her is an old woman, whom she thought was her grandma. The Edward came out of the woods, and she tells him "Don't she might see you." But as she introduce "grandma" to Edward, she kind of made a discovery - the old woman is her! The dream was telling her that Edward couldn't possibly love her as an old spinster. And despite her judgment at school, The Cullens throw Bella a birthday party that night. But when she cut herself unwrapping a birthday present, the smell of her blood drove newcomer Jasper crazy! And as a result of the danger Bella went through last night, the Cullen family decide to leave Forks.
Bella tries to convince Edward that she couldn't live without him and she wants to go with him. But Edward wouldn't hear of it and he can't stay with her anymore, stating, "You're not good for me." Then he asks her to promise him that she will not do anything reckless, for Charlie's sake, and in return he promises her she will never see him again. Don't judge Edward too harshly, he is doing this for her own good.
At first Bella feels her life is over and even tries to do adrenaline-rushing stunts to get Edward out of her mind, until she spends time with childhood friend, Jacob Black. But as usual for Bella, things aren't what they seem. Something is happening to Jacob that he can't explain to Bella, and their friendship starts to deteriorate. That's all I could tell you folks, you will have to see the film for yourself how it ends. My last word is that this film is awesome! and perfect to go with "Twilight."
