urgh!!

Rating: 2/10 (4 December 2009)

Now, I understand that this movie is a fiction and it is about vampires and werewolves. So I'm not going to question anything in relation to the story itself.
The only thing I liked about New Moon is Jacob's and his friend's transformation into wolves, and the fact that they were topless almost the whole movie. And Charlie.
Unfortunately, even Jacob's body can't save this movie. It is excruciatingly BORING. I understand that in a trilogy, the 2nd installment is normally slower but again, I am not questioning the story. It's the bad acting, the delivery of the lines, the lack of feeling that frustrates me. Bella's expression is the same throughout the movie. Bella and Edward don't appear as if they are in love at all. Way too many unnecessary pauses especially from the main characters, can't they speak properly? Bella's 'nightmares' were way too often they become irritating. I was head over heels with Edward in Twilight, but in New Moon, his facial expression is tiring it made me rolled my eyes!
I haven't read the books and do not intend to. But I wonder if this girl Bella is as selfish and ungrateful in the books (the way she treated her dad and Jacob)...all because of her love for Edward. I'm not saying that she should reciprocate Jacob's feelings simply because he was her shoulder to cry on, but how can she simply shove him aside whenever there's a Cullen around. From my point of view, she used him and dumped him..so much for a best friend. She doesn't even care for her father's feeling.
I thought Twilight was okay, could have been better with additional fighting scenes, but New Moon was a waste of time.
