disappointing, but

Rating: 4/10 (26 November 2009)

OK, where to start? I've read Twilight and New moon and I'm not a fan of the series, but I think they are OK. However, I have to admit that I was expecting something else from this movie and that I was totally disappointed by the bad acting of the lead actors and the cheesiness of their lines. Besides, I don't understand why the action sequences were so short. Every time there was an action sequence and I was beginning to feel excited it was abruptly cut and I have to stand Bella's expressionless face and depressing lines over and over again. I was also very shocked by the poor camera work in this movie. If we compare this movie with the previous one, we can easily notice that the previous director (Catherine Hardwicke)was more adventurous and did a great camera work and some of the shots were just amazing. However, I have to admit that Taylor Lautner surprised me because he was the only one who didn't look like he was just reading and delivering lines without understanding what he was saying. To sum up, New moon was too lame, too cheesy, too mediocre and absolutely overrated.
