Summary
Reviewers say `The Twilight Saga: New Moon` delivers some compelling action sequences and shows directorial improvement over its predecessor, with Taylor Lautner`s performance earning praise. However, the film suffers from cringe-worthy dialogue, painfully slow pacing, and poor writing that drags throughout. Kristen Stewart`s expressionless performance and unconvincing romantic chemistry disappoint most viewers. The adaptation divides fans, working better for book readers. Overall, reviewers found it boring and tedious despite occasional entertaining moments.

No as we expect
I too expected this movie to be better. I read the 4 books. The thing is they cut out the best lines from the books which can add SO much to the movies. I was looking forward to some seens in the movie: Edward proposal for Bella, when they talk while they are waiting to get out the Volturi, very romantic and whilte they are in plane going back home. I think the scenarist must be replaced or the writer should oversee the script. The only reason movies are hit cause of the books only. Most people who did not read the books did not like the movies. Hope they`ll do better in the 3rd one. But I really hope they`ll do much much better in the 4th movie cause this is the book I`d like most. In general, if you read the books you must watch the movies, its nice to have the characters & seens a life.

The Beast Within...
What would you do, if a wolf should fall for you, when rejected by your lover, spending months under the covers, he wants more than to be friends, an outstretched paw he`s keen to lend, scratch his back and he`ll scratch yours, just be careful of those jaws, as the lupine are not supine, and returns from certain bloodlines, can increase the curdling pressure, and then you may just need a tether.

Very disappointing
I loved the Twilight movie, that`s how I started reading the books in the first place. I`ve read them about ten times each and I still like them. But New Moon`s big screen adaptation was a huge let down.

One thing that was improved was that many of the characters actually smiled or laughed naturally when the moment called for it, as opposed to the `I don`t crack a smile cause I`m a seriously deadly vampire` routine in Twilight.

I liked the portrayal of Alice, she seemed more like what she should be according to the book, Charlie and I also liked the wolves and the rest of the special effects.

But I couldn`t feel the bond between Edward and Bella. I couldn`t believe that they loved each other. Hell, I couldn`t believe they even liked each other. Even at the end, after their ordeal, after deciding that they would never let each other go, they were frigid. The actors just delivered their lines, they didn`t feel them.

The score ranged from awful to non-existent. It seems as though it was not written specifically for New Moon. Carter Burwell`s score brings to memory specific scenes in Twilight. This one is an indifferent, generic one, I guess it would fit in whatever movie you threw it in.

However, the most important flaw was that the entire movie seemed very rushed, like it was originally supposed to be much longer but somebody edited it heavily and really, really badly. For example, in an instant we are informed that Edward is going to commit suicide thinking Bella`s dead, she drives off with Alice *bang* next thing you know you see a plane in the air, *bang* next thing you know Alice and Bella are already inside the stolen car on their way to Volterra and it carries on like that until the end.

No character development, no bonds between them, no space to breathe, no explanation whatsoever of how things happened or how decisions were made, nothing but a hastily chopped up summary of the book.

Is the actual movie coming out any time soon?

Warning: this is not a fan-boy`s review.
Have to say, New Moon the most anticipated romance tale of the year, is decently made. So allow me, a non-fan of the series to make this comment.

First off, I know people hated it for what it is. The whole idea is like a coming-of-age story of several abnormal kids. I know it`s a homage to Shakespeare; and I definitely noticed the similarity with Underworld series it began to show. But I also have to say that sometimes people hate it because they assume it`s stupid, and despised the puppy love illustrated in such a fantasy scenario. But, it`s the film-making that grabbed my attention.

Throughout, New Moon demonstrates with superb pacing, sophisticated art design that overflowing with the whole story, and smooth special visual effects that well fit in. For a standard Hollywood production it should be like this, but allow me to say it adds points to the whole experience. It`s not a movie you`d expect an awful lot of actions in it, but believe me you will see plenty of compelling actions that keep you entertained if not delighted. Some scenes are like TV-commercials, but allow me to say they are a lot more beautiful and more genuine than those outrageous built-in advertisements in `2012` or so.

The other aspect I`d like to give a nod, is the professional attitude of the whole production. The story is about a bunch of teenagers, but the movie never fell amateurish or video-game-like. The actors all fit into their roles naturally, and again allow me to say there was not anything in performances amateurish or in-genuine enough to distract me from the story. Of course the movie is not Oscar-level, but it successfully captured the youngsters` ignorance, arrogance and all kinds of struggles between immaturity and responsibility. Shouldn`t we be a bit more open to teenagers? I am not saying this movie is perfect in doing politics right, but it`s not bad for a family ride that can make chances for some family talk.

So, 7/10 is a fair score given the movie is not Oscar stuff, but admit it that so many people just gave it a 1 even before they see it.

Could`ve been
First of all, I haven`t read the novels/books, so I can`t say how close this is to the source material. I`ve heard that, the first movie (Twilight) didn`t bring everything from the book onto the screen (which makes sense, because otherwise the source material would`ve been really slim/weak). While we had our introductions in the first movie (and I`m assuming you have either seen that or at least read the book), we should be able to have more `fun` with the characters this time around ... well if you thought that, than you are very wrong!!

The things K. Stewarts character (Bella) has to go through, come across. But while some additional stuff has been made up (or so I`ve been told), that wasn`t in the book, to have a `special` character with more screen time, this all adds up to a pretty dreadful experience.

The acting wasn`t really top notch from part 1. There is no reason for that. And I think the only one coming out of, mostly unscathed, is Taylor Lautner. And the girl who played in `Up in the Air`, forgot her name. But that`s more due to the movie `Up in the Air` than to her role in this one.

While nothing much is happening (not only acting wise), the movie still tries to be as dramatic as it can be. The problem being, it isn`t at all! And while there are a few nice action pieces, the whole thing feels utterly ridiculous, which makes it quite hard to really enjoy it. Again though, as with the first one, this was aimed at a female audience group and if you saw it in theaters, than you might have heard quite a few of them screaming. There is one `special` scene that really made them happy ... and some guys too (although they might have been cynical)! While the scene as it is, didn`t excite me and influenced my vote directly, the impact it has/had, does reflect in my vote, as well as the fact, that the target audience seems to love it ...

Each member of the wolf pack had to have papers proving their Native descent. Chaske Spencer is Lakota (Sioux), Bronson Pelletier is Cree-Metis, Alex Meraz is Purepecha (Tarasco), Kiowa Gordon is Hualapai, and Tyson Houseman, who was discovered at an open casting call, is Cree.
Goofs
(at around 55 mins) When Bella finds Jacob in the rain, she slams her car door and it doesn`t shut fully. The next scene you see the car shut completely.
Quotes
Edward Cullen: It`s my job to protect you. From everyone, except my sister.
Alternate versions
There are two versions available. One is the original Theatrical Cut (TC), and the other is an Extended Cut (EC). As noted in the IMDB `Technical Specifications` section, the EC runs about 7 minutes longer. It consists of additional footage incorporated into the film, instead of separated as a Deleted Scenes feature.

Alternate versions
There are two versions available. One is the original Theatrical Cut (TC), and the other is an Extended Cut (EC). As noted in the IMDB `Technical Specifications` section, the EC runs about 7 minutes longer. It consists of additional footage incorporated into the film, instead of separated as a Deleted Scenes feature.
