Twilight Saga Mania

Well, I got to go see it this afternoon and I can say it lived up to my expectations. I was looking forward to this over the rest because this book had the most action in it. The battle at the end was awesome and the back story leading up to it was very deep and gave you a deeper understanding of what the Cullen’s and other characters went through.

So, I have to say it stayed really close to the source and didn’t disappoint. It didn’t really go as deep into the back story as I’d of liked and I felt the ending battle scene was rushed. Even though I knew what was coming. They build it throughout the entirety of the movie and then the wall come crashing down. The triangle between Bella, Edward, and Jake is very well done and they make the jabs at each other come out and had the audience laughing.

They really didn’t go as much into the whole Riley story and I felt that Seth didn’t get his due credit. After all if he didn’t intervene, I doubt Edward could have taken Victoria and Riley.

Speaking of Victoria, Bryce Dallas Howard did a fair job. It just didn’t seem like Victoria though. The hair was much more red and of course her voice is very high and femine. They could have brought her voice down a little more. She just didn’t seem very scary like Rachelle did.

Overall I think the movie was well done and David Slade did a good job directing it.

I am excited that Breaking Dawn is next, but not that I have to see in over the next 2 years since they split it up.

I give it 4.5/5 stars.
