Say WHATEVER to the Critics... This Movie Was Awesome!

Rating: 8/10 (20 November 2009)

I really don't get the critics reviews, the movie was totally cool!! Well yeah it's not a massive budget CGI film but it was totally worth getting into! The opening scene was brill, loved the colour scheme, staying true to Stephenie Meyer's overall tone of the book. The acting has vastly improved over Twilight. Emotions in Twilight being a bit disconnected and emotionally detached.
I loved R Pattz's portrayal of Edward... very convincing. I don't get how some reviewers slam him for being broody and looking as though he wanted to cry in most scenes... hello that is how it's supposed to be. I mean come on, did they even read the book?
K Stew's Bella was much better. Her acting improved a lot over Twilight which was a little wooden and disconnected. I actually felt her love and loss. Her heartache and joy. Unlike in Twilight, I actually felt that she actually loved Edward and cared for him.
Jacob... well what can I say about Jacob? Well I absolutely loathe him in the books. Whereas Taylor Lautner makes Jacob actually tolerable. More than tolerable even... likable. Taylor's Jacob is witty and not too protective, the complete opposite of Edward and that is what makes him likable to me.
The rest of the cast were brilliant. I loved Peter Facinelli... he's so cool and breathes life into his role as Carlisle.
The only reason why I gave it an 8 and not a 9 is because of the cliffhanger at the end... so unfair leaving it off like that.
Overall a decent movie which I will be going back to see tomorrow!!
P.S. - To all those people who gave this movie a bad review... you're the ones who actually spent the money to go and see the movie and then gave it a bad review. That still doesn't stop it from making the millions... who stinks now?
