New Moon = 2 hours of lifetime lost

Rating: 1/10 (25 November 2009)

The Good: The graphics looked a little more expensive than the previous film. They hired some star power with Dakota Fanning in a minor role (albeit 5 min screen time).
The Bad: The movie, the plot, the acting.... The movie was pretty much torture. It was 2 hours worth of cheesy lines and melodrama, recited to you by actors who were instructed to emote by shouting very loudly; it was a movie that made me want to plug my ears, and to vomit, and to pluck my eyes out but I just wasn't sure in what order (--and I'm sure I'm not the only one judging from all the others who voted it a 1).
SPOILERS: The beginning of New Moon was promising with beautiful scene of a garden. This opening sequence lasted a few minutes. After which, every few seconds, Bella proceeded to alternate between shouting loudly and whining on screen about the various ways of her suffering. The supporting cast took turns looking sullen and shouting at each other angst filled dialogue.
Meanwhile, I was thinking to myself, how can I end my own suffering? Unfortunately, all of the exits were blocked in my movie theatre by screaming tweens (teenage girls between 12-15).
Save yourself some money. Trust the REVIEWS.
