TWILIGHT SAGA: New Moon

So...have you seen the recent addition to the Twilight franchise? I have.

I have read the books before. I was planning to review New Moon but I did not have the chance due to the big flood that damaged all my four books. (Here I am ranting again about my Twilight books!)

Ok, about the movie. I am not saying I did not like it. It's really almost like the book minus some minor details, but that's really expected right? It started off with that dream scene with the older Bella which was really how I imagined it. The wolves were more than I expected. It was a great movie!

What disappointed me, though, was that the actors seemed like they did not give it their best shot. I did not "feel" Bella's grief. I did not see Edward's sadness. Maybe they thought that standing there expressionless would make the audience think that they were really sad. It's just so disappointing.

And Jacob, in the book, seemed all arrogant and sure of himself. But it all changed in the movie. It seemed to me that he's the one we should take pity on when in fact what he's really trying to do is break up the great love story between Bella and Edward.

But generally speaking, I liked the movie. I'm not asking for a change of actors...but a change in the actors. Maybe they could put more life into the movie. I sure hope it could happen in Eclipse and Breaking Dawn. Goooosh I can't wait!
