Twilight movies are painful to watch. Not because of the dramatic and heart-breaking love stories, but because everyone is expressionless. Everyone always complains about Kristen Stewart, but everyone is just as bad as she is - except none of these actors are bad. I've seen Kristen Stewart in other movies, and she's an excellent actress. Same goes for almost everyone, yet everyone is so horrible in these movies. What also makes these movies painful is how everything is stupidly cheesy and dramatic, and every scene is unnecessary long. You could've easily made this an 1,5 hour film instead of two hours - just cut every useless part out. Thank you.The story is annoying. Edward breaks up with Bella to protect her and she gets depressed. But her depression is so severe I honestly cannot believe that is a result of a healthy relationship ending. If you delete the supernatural element and change the beginning, it honestly feels like Bella just got out of an abusive relationship and is therefore a little broken and all that. Yeah, Bella is not an extremely three-dimensional character, but I almost want to protect her from Edward. I hate Edward Cullen. Sure, there aren't many likable characters in these movie, but Edward is the worst. He's manipulative and controlling. It's like you start dating someone, but after a while you realise they tell you what to do and you don't dare to defy them. That's the kind of character Edward is. Special effects are so stupid. Nothing looks real. All vampires' eyes are so fake, like no one in real life could look a Cullen in the eyes and be like "yep, those are very normal eyes". The wolves were even faker. They looked like they came from a children's animation, and while that's understandable, they looked so incredibly unrealistic it ruined every scene with the wolves in it. One thing makes this movie better than the first one: there is less of Edward and more of Jacob. Or is that two things? I still dislike them both, but before we know what Jacob is he's so lovely. Everyone else is just so grim and blah.

The film follows Bella Swan as Edward Cullen leaves Forks, Washington with his family after a conflict with his brother Jasper Cullen trying to kill Bella on her 18th birthday. Bella starts being depressed for months after her unexpected breakup with Edward. However, her dad decides to send her back to her mom until she starts spending time with her friends and develops a strong relationship with Jacob Black.That is just the main premise of the story, but there is more to this movie's confusing and incoherent plot.I'm not going to cry like a little girl over this film but I hate this movie. It's a sequel based on a book of the same name by Stephanie Meyer and I thought it would interest me but after watching this film with my sister LeeAnn, I just walked out my room in disgust and a lot of angry.The plot is confusing as heck because it's really dumb and not a good idea. A lot of critics put down this movie which I am glad they did because this movie does not deserve to have universal critical acclaim and it's not really good at all. The plot is slowly paced and it's very long -- being at 130 freaking minutes long -- I will not watch The Twilight Saga: NEW MOON ever again in my life. I read the book and it's okay. I loved the book version, but once I watched the movie, I just found myself saying, "What in the heck did I just watch?". That is exactly how much I hate this movie.The one part of "NEW MOON" that really got me mad is when Kristen Stewart's character, Bella Swan, is screaming in her sleep after Edward leaves (because she misses him) throughout the whole darn movie. That is just stupid and what an outrageous idea. By the time she finally stopped screaming, I was really ready for this movie to end quickly, but i had to see more of this slow-paced movie. Her screaming, it definitely drove me crazy.They spent a cheap worth of money on this movie and this movie succeeds at the box office? The film cost $50 million dollars to make. Man, that is crazy. If i have to say anything nice about this movie, I will bring up the acting and the music. The music is by far, really good by Alexandre Desplat, who would later go on to compose the final two films in the Harry Potter film franchise, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1" and "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2".The acting, from my point of view, falls flat. But I will give credit to Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson, and also Dakota Fanning, who plays Jane, while Stewart and Pattinson are playing Bella Swan and Edward Cullen, for a second time. Michael Sheen plays the role of Volturi leader Aro and he is really good and he played the werewolf character, Lucian in "Underworld", "Underworld: Evolution" and "Underworld: Rise of the Lycans". He played that part wonderfully and to see him in a TWILIGHT film is spectacular.Taylor Lautner plays the role of Jacob Black once again and he does a good job, too, but even then, it's incredibly over the top and he tries way too hard to make Kristen Stewart's character, Bella, like him. I do love the CGI werewolf version of Jacob, but the rest of the CGI is terrible. Some of the dialogue is horrible, but some of it is also really good. The pacing and editing is slow and awkward.So, overall, I love and hate NEW MOON! I know it has it's fan base and THE TWILIGHT SAGA films does have it's fan base, so if you like this movie, that's fine, because we all have our own opinions.

I'm with Team I-hope-they-all-die-soon-so-this-crappy-series-will-end.The first one was bad enough, this is even worse. It still has the wooden, looking broody instead of acting, performances of the first, and the limited dialogue. However, the plot is even duller this time. And now, to add to the lack of acting, we have one "actor" whose only function seems to be to show off his abs at any opportunity!Even worse, it just goes on and on. 130 minutes for something this bad - that's 120 minutes longer than the concentration span of its intended female teen audience.Watch True Blood instead.

I seriously didn't think that it couldn't get any worse. I should never assume what I think would happen.The characters are still flat and dull. Watching these 'actors' perform these horrible roles makes watching paint dry look amazing. No one gets enough screen time to develop their characters. Which doesn't help this movie. The romance is even worse in this movie. Bella and Edward have no time together building their relationship since all they say to each other is 'i love you' or 'turn me into a vampire'. Bella and Jacob have little bit of chemistry but no enough to start a relationship and plus she doesn't date him but Edward. The love triangle is hardly mentioned and is only shown till the last five minutes of this movie which is what all this fuss has been about. The story is boring, period. All Bella does is mope for most of the movie how Edward isn't with her or trying to figure out what's happening to Jacob. Because of the pacing it's dragged out long. Nothing exciting happens until the third act at break neck speed (just like the last movie). Plus I had tons of questions to ask. How does Alice powers work? Why couldn't she see earlier that Bella would become a vampire so we wouldn't have a pointless action scene? Why do the guys fall for Bella? There's no appeal into her. She has about as much personality as a dead tree stump. They never explain why they love each other.I know some people say 'Well in the book...' I don't need a book. I shouldn't have to USE a book.I don't need a book on my lap when the movie can't give me the information I need. Harry Potter didn't need me to ask questions because I knew about it. I didn't start reading the books till the second movie and I was caught up with movies enough so that I didn't need questions.Sorry Twilight fans but this is just terrible.
