I said it many times before , I didn't like the whole twillight saga and this movie is no exception at all A lot of things are wrong with the script , the story felt like everything is messed up, nothing was logical or serious enough to get my attention

This film was definitely the worst in the franchise, and I do realize that this film was needed In order to set the stage for Breaking Dawn Part 2, but still this film was very dull and really dragged along. The beginning of the movie was fine, but as it went on, it really started to drag, and I was getting bored, and was just begging for something to happen. The big honeymoon scene was well done, not too graphic, but it still showed the romance between Bella and Edward. I did enjoy the honeymoon part of the movie. Later on, is where the problem started, the film really failed to keep the viewers attention, which was disappointing. 3/10 for breaking dawn part 1

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. Oh look a NOPEmovie. If you ever come across this film in your travels, do the world a favor; take it from where you have found it, set it gently on the ground, take a machine gun and unload a round or two into it. After you've finished with that, scoop up the remains, then transport those remains to the nearest fire. When there is nothing but ashes left, sweep up those ashes and deposit them into a container of acid. Take that container of acid and travel to the deepest body of water you can find and release that acid into the middle of it. Then we can rest assured it can't hurt anyone else. You can help all of your fellow humans by deciding to take these simple steps to avoid the pain and suffering. Thank you.

At this point it is futile to quibble about the lack of character development, wooden acting and cliché dialogue. This doesn't make me some "Twi-hard", but I did find some enjoyment in this installment due to the utter ludicrousness of the plot and some truly hilarious moments. The first 30 minutes concerns itself with Edward and Bella's nuptials, and this was probably the worst part of the whole movie due to some extremely cringe-inducing, cliché-ridden dialogue. However, after that we get treated to the honeymoon which explores (in a chaste, PG-13 way) what it would be like for a vampire to have sex with a human. They don't just bang the headboard, they break the entire bed (technically, Edward does but whatever). Then, what follows is one of the most inexplicable pregnancies since the Virgin Birth, and seems to making a case against abortion. Admirable, but misguided. Anyway, the conflict that ensues over this vampire baby makes for some of the more melodramatic moments in the film. Obviously not competently handled, but interesting enough to watch unfold. However, the way in which it is resolved is head-scratchingly bizarre, yet completely expected if you've been paying attention before. I think that the only creepier thing than Edward grooming Bella for vampire-dom is Jacob imprinting on Renesmee, who is literally a baby. It couldn't get any more pedophilic than that, in my opinion. And somehow, because of the immutable werewolf law this solves the problem. Ridiculous, but kind of funny still. There's also a cheeky, yet ominous mid-credits scene which sets up the inevitable finale to come (but didn't Bella's eyes opening again already do that?). Anyway, the filmmaking quality here is the best yet in the series, with excellent cinematography and visual style to spare. Overall it's less awkward and overly "teenage" than its predecessors, probably due to the maturing of the subject matter. Flawed, but enjoyable enough for fans of the series.
