Amazing movie

Rating: 10/10 (21 November 2009)

This movie exceeded my every expectation by leaps and bounds. The cinematography was amazing, the acting was better, and the direction and script could not have been better utilized. I went in with the disappointment that Twilight was stuck in my head so maybe my expectations were lower, but I was literally blown away.
Of course there were cheesy parts, it's a romance!!! However, I was hard pressed to find a line that was completely cheesy in the movie that Stephenie Meyer had not used herself in the book. It sounds cheesier because it's not you reading it, but in all actuality the "cheesy" parts were what most of us loved about the books: the absolute and total commitment to one another.
This wasn't the best acted movie or best directed movie of all time, you can't expect that from them, but this was the best possible New Moon anyone could have made. Ugh...and that includes Catherine Hardwick. Do not let that woman near any of the movies!
