Was this the complete film? Did I miss something?

Rating: 4/10 (5 December 2009)

Uh, didn't see that coming definitely! I didn't get the climax or I don't know what happened, but I think this movie lacked of an intense conclusion.
I felt it ended abruptly, without the most important situations getting a resolution.
I mean, I watched it on movie theaters but it felt that it was an incomplete film. There were many sub-plots thrown but never completed and in consequence left the audience with the impression that the movie was just a transitional situation for the sub-plots resolutions.
The romance was tedious this time and the action sequences felt more like dramatic/ kitsch oriented situations. OK, so Jacob being the wolf had a special meaning but why showing it frowning in sadness?. I know it's a teenagers in love oriented film, but some rough PG-13 situations wouldn't harm.
The visuals were not as spectacular in the original, and I didn't see interesting art direction or cinematography. There wasn't improvement over the production values. But I must say that the San Marcos procession was really good.
Then, what was the intention of showing Bella's almost suicidal tendencies just because her vampire boyfriend left her? I didn't buy her almost fanatic love for Edward.
Kristen Stewart is really pretty and candy for the eye but her performance felt wooden and inexpressive. I didn't buy it. Robert Pattinson was a cold act all the time, I didn't think he managed to perform a decent performance. Taylor Lautern was very expressive with his facial expressions and was in my opinion the best thing bout the movie. Same goes for pretty-barbie look alike Dakota Fanning.
Alice was a fresh character and added some funny moments (like calling Jacob a dog). I wanted to see more from Rosalie Hale, not only because she's hot! The vampire trio of leaders was interesting and added creepy moments but it wasn't truly explored.
The vampiric situations weren't interesting and I expected to see more from the Cullens.
Having read my opinions, you can see I expected a lot from an incomplete product that officially ended my intentions to become a fan or follower at least of the saga.
So I guess we have to wait until "Eclipse" for having "real" action and emotions.
"New Moon" is just a cash in occurrence. It served only as a transition phase for the third movie. Ugh.
