i loved the new moon
Better than Twilight! But still it's bad
What hasn't improved since the first one is the acting with Kirsten Stewart and Robert Pattinson. They still mumble there lines and there is no chemistry between them and you just don't believe they love each other and Bella just broods about in the film, the story isn't that interesting really and the dialogue is still poor and corny though it's not as bad.
What I did like was the special effects were better and so was the story and dialogue(from the first one) which were a small improvment. As to far as the rest of the cast the acting was suprisingly good. Credit mostly going to Taylor Lautner as Jacob. I could actually believe he cared about Bella and Anna Hendrick as Edward's sister Jessica was decent in her cameo as were several of the other vampires. New Moon is watchable but it's still far too long and bad. Maybe I found it more watchable because I knew it would be but at least there are improvements. I might see the third one if I was really bored. It's bad but better than Twilight.
Fantastic!
Amazing directing by Chris Weitz and fab acting, Kristen Stewart mainly. She is a good actress who, i think, portrayed the emotions of Bella Swan perfectly. Well done :D - 5 Stars!
