What does it matter if a film stays close to the book if some people haven't even read the book. Anyone could make an exact rendering of the book, but it's the originality and creativity that is put into adaptations (though not this one) that make it exciting and worthwhile. This films was incredibly boring and almost corny at times. Lautner can't act to save his life sadly, and most of the time when he's trying to be dramatic, he is actually funny. What a poorly made film.… Expand

Bad performances, and some terribly written dialogue, not to mention its long running time, which makes it unentertaining, this film does have some great romance and an impressive budget though, but it fails to impress. I give this film a 25% of a good movie.

I felt that by watching this movie I had opened the door of judgment on tween-girl fandom, and my exclusion hit as I felt the cold abyss stared back at me, daring me to defy it. Yes, I had entered the Twilight zone, and I had no place being there (nor would anyone with any critical sense)

This movie was awful. I went in to see it with my girlfriend as she's somehow interested in these fake vampire movies. This movie is nothing more than softcore porn for women. If you've seen this, you'll know what I mean by that. About the characters, the two main characters are just plain dumb, Bella's just a self-absorbed bitch who teases other guys, but in the end just mopes about the seemingly autistic "vampire." Since when could vampires be in sunlight? And when did they start to sparkle? Jesus, I think I'll need a bottle of whiskey to down this god-awful movie with. A fun after-movie fact was, that when I asked my GF about the movie's plot, she actually was like: "What plot?" Anyway, I've got a bottle of whiskey to drink. Cheers!… Expand

There's nothing good about this movie. And you're only gonna embarrass yourself by trying to explain why it's so good. Actually, I'm mistaken- That awkward elevator scene was hilarious! If you were going to watch this movie just for the laughs, don't even bother. Just youtube that elevator scene. It's amazing.

While the first one gave us the ridiculous idea that vampires sparkle, this one implies that werewolves are really creatures that shapeshift whenever they want. Is Stephanie Meyer trying to ridicule the horror genre?

A seriously dumb movie. Even the special effects are wimpy. I had hoped to find some thrill in all the beefcake noted in the trailers. But even that is wasted.

This movie rocks if you're a 14 year old girl who just had her first period. Seriously.

One of the worst movies I've seen on my life of my life with Gigli, Saw VI, one missed call and the first one too! pure vampire and werewolf incoherence!

Garbage!

This has to be the worst sequel that I've ever seen. It's dull,I mean it is SO BORING! Very disappointment! You know why this film so bad? Because of those lovey dovey cast and some lovey dovey dopey story,nothing else. It's almost bas as the first one,just the same logic of the sequel. WHAT A RIP-OFF! No other Box-Office Hit couldn't be good like this. I guess that the Twilight franchise wasn't too memorable and not even too good for the series. It's just downhill from there. Even of course it's a viewers flop and of course there's nothing creativity about this movie,it's just the romantic movie with too many cliches and putting into a vampire of crap,that's all I have. But it's bad,it's really,really bad!… Expand

The movie sucked. I almost fell asleep in some parts because it's so boring. It's always cheap lines to make the audience laugh, and stupid 16 year old girls distracting in the row behind you. Worst film of all time.

I thought this movie was pure garbage. it was 2 hours of a confused.

Twilight New Moon has a plot that really makes me think. In both films the two main characters (Edward and Bella) are in love with each other. But oh know one of them is a vampire and his family and enemies want to eat Bella so their love is forbidden and ruined by many people. That is not the part which makes by angle my head. It's how they even love each other. I never see them laughing together or anything and when they are walking together they are serious and talking about their relationship problems. In both movies I didn't see one connection they had with each other or any sparks. They might've showed it in the book but Chris Weltz forgot it in this twilight series. But still New Moon did many things that they did succesfully. That's why I gave it a 4 many good things and bad things. I can't believe I am saying this because I did not think New Moon could pull this off but it's better then the first. I am mainly surprised because I thought the film crew was going to try to get Robert Pattinson and Taylor Lautner shirtless for several scenes. Well, they did but they also wanted to film the movie in a gorgeous and elegant way and I am not talking about shooting Robert and Taylor like that. I am talking about capturing the beatifulness of why everybody enjoys movie. They sort of captured it and I give credit to them for trying. They especially tried in all of the montages with the sad music or good feeling music. Overall Twilight New Moon is better the first Twilight and if you are on Team Edward or Team Jacob you will probably enjoy this film.… Expand

When you have a new True Blood airing every Sunday on HBO, this sexless, bloodless Twilight follow-up stings sour and is only worsened by some really terrible acting.

What do you call a vampire movie with no action/horror and what do you call a romance with no chemistry/sex? Apparently you call it NEW MOON, but to anyone who actually can tell the difference between a good story from a bad one, you'll just call it BORING. The werewolves (if you can even call them that) have really bland FX, and they may look good compared to Twilight's FX, but that's because the FX found in Twilight were the quality of a Syfy Original. I won't get into the whole vampire glitter thing, either, nor will I bother trying to debate the logic of a 100 year old male going to high school over and over (I guess home schooling doesn't exist in Forks?) to score with 16 year old tail - in particular, the 16 year old tail of a brooding, angsty, emo girl who really needs to be put on medication. Wow, what a match made in Heaven. The 2 in my score is entirely for Taylor Lautner's abs. The dude hit the gym HARD for this movie, I respect that.… Expand

Indisputable proof that our culture is intellectually bankrupt!

Awful film. Bad books made into worse movies. Awful acting, god-awful script, hideous CGI. Jacob is the only character who actually has character but thats like saying he is as charming as a brick. The plot is freakin stupid. Edward leaves because Bella gets a papercut? It just proves he doesn't even care about her dispite the fact that this is a love movie. I can see why he doesn�39;t care about her because Bella is one of the worse teenager in recent memory. … Expand

Maybe would have been better with different actors but with these emotionless stalefaces I just wanted to walk out.

New Moon handily wins WMOTY wost movie of the year!

This love story movie has some of the worst acting I've seen to-date. Whats up with Kristen Stewart screaming and morning for months. That was a little too much!

Being a middle-aged man who writes screenplays i like to stay abreast of what is successful. I was pleasantly surprised by the first twilight movie. It had tension as Bella puzzled about Edward, then after realizing what he is, the tension became over the consummation question. Becoming a vampire is the metaphorical equivalent of sex and the tension and chemistry between the actors held my interest. Not the case with the new one. I found it interminably boring. I've seen Kristen Stewart in 4 films and the only one she has believable romantic chemistry is Twilight. Perhaps she has authentic off-screen feelings for Pattinson so she showed that in the first film. But there's no chemistry between her and Lautner, her and Eisenberg in Adventureland or her and Sanford in some crappy indie. She has much appeal in many ways and is not nearly as bad as Scarlett Johansen, but she has to grow. The film as a whole was overlong, boring and weak. It repeated the same plot devices as the first film, this time it's lautner with a secret. And how many solemn promises can these guys break? If you aren't a die-hard twilight fan - skip it.… Expand

I've would likely give this a 0, but the cinematography (which is grand) makes up for that. Also New Moon is a slow-moving movie unlike Twilight (which was straightforward and easy to understand). And I slightly think Robert Pattinson had bad acting throughout the Twilight Saga. Lastly, I highly recommend to read the book first, then see the movie.

The movie overall was very dull, the so called "thrilling action" parts put me to sleep. Plus for the most part you see Bella weeping and screaming for her Edward, give me a break and cry me a river. The story was good but the really bad acting by Stewart ruined the whole movie, her face looked a rock, pale and emotionless. Overall this movie was a complete waste of my time and my money,and doesn't even deserve to be called a movie anymore.… Expand

I did not see this movie for fear of adding to the already appalling figures it has managed to garner, but after seeing the original I can safely say that no film bearing the twilight name could possibly be meritorious of anything higher.

This movie was offensive to me as someone who likes good movies and literature.

A bunch of mopey teens standing around (literally, they DO just stand around for the entire film) as some soon-to-be-dated pop songs play in the background. People actually like this??

The first vampire film I've ever seen that is boring... maybe boring is too kind of a word.

Not worth the price of admission to me, but if your a teenage girl it presses all the right buttons. I liked it better than the first one, better special effects.

I thought nothing was worse than the original "Twilight" movie. I was wrong.

UGGHHH...they're not even real vampires! If you are love this movie and your not in high school you have issues.

The opening scenes of "New Moon" plays more like episodic television than it does a feature film. It works as comfort food, that is, if you were comforted by the Catherine Hardwicke original. There's the high school parking we all know and love, the place where Edward(Robert Pattison) saved Bella(Kristin Stewart) from a swerving vehicle with just a single hand, and there's the high school itself, still composed of a student body that's not all entirely human. (The Cullen vampires remind me more of the preppies in the Donna Tartt novel "The Secret History" than they do bloodsuckers.) In this week's(year's) episode: Bella turns seventeen! Jacob(Taylor Launter) gives her a dreamcatcher. Of course. He's "Indian". Jacob's rival, Edward, who is too lazy to make, and too cheap to buy, a proper gift for Bella, gives the mopey(and dopey) girl a kiss. It's what she asked for. If you swoon at this, and you're not a fourteen-year-old-girl, you need to watch Lloyd Dobler in action, or heck, even f***in' Angel(from Joss Whedon's brilliant serial reworking of the original "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer" movie), who is not quite as pasty-faced, or bloody boring, as Edward. "New Moon", incidentally named after singer-songwriter Elliott Smith's posthumous 2007 album of rare tracks, could possibly inform this vampire, who's certainly depressing enough, and dead, like the Portland, Oregon-based musician. What can you say about a film which improves significantly when its key supporting character is off the screen? Some of us like Edward better as a vapor.… Expand

Just another excuse for girls to keep making fun of anyone who they think is beneath their status (I'll include parents, because they have to put up with this 24/7), and prefer image over what's beneath. But in a vampire movie? Well, fear no more, vampire fans who are still out there. Daybreakers.

Bashing my head against a wall would be less painful then this.

A lot of style. No substance.

Poor acting and poor story. Absolute garbage! Yeah, a bunch of ugly guys with abs, TOP WRITING THERE! This is the dumbest series.

This movie is the worst movie i have ever watched, i can not believe i wasted my money on a movie that has horrible actors and a extremely bad story line. In my opinion the Twilight saga itself should not exist.

Another drone of a movie that is going to be wildly popular with the masses of sheep despite shoddy plot loaded with holes and weak acting. Not to mention further killing the traditional vampire in this mtv society.

Poorly acted, poorly written, dreadfully slow and horribly shot.

Please, stop that shit! We´re destroying our kids, our books, our movies, we are hitting culture in the fucking balls! New Moon sucks, like Twilight. It´a product, not a movie. The books are teen´s minds-controllers, not books. Please, see M-O-V-I-E-S (Agora, Diary of Noa) and read B-O-O-K-S (Harry Potter, Pilars of Earth, A World Without End, Fatima´s Hand) but not this, please. NOT THIS.… Expand

Only those interested in the books and previous film will be happy with this. Everyone else will regard it as a junk film. The bad acting, overuse of male topless nudity and terrible lines are only just watchable if you turn your brain off, but anyone who has no interest in this will be unable to watch for more than a few seconds. I give it a 1, and that's being extremely generous.

Acting is terrible, dialog is straight from mtv. I dont get how people can enjoy this junk.

If only actors could be better than them. The worst of all is beautiful Kirsten Steward. I'm sad for her because the succes of Twilight movies will keep her far from learning acting skills, she will be like Jennifer Lopez. She don't even know how to speak to be listen. I had never read the books but I feel that New Moon is more in feelings than in images, and that's why the film is so boring. I don't think this film is better than the first, at least the other one was cheap and unpretencious, but I still remember the music and the baseball play. It was more rock and roll, which means more romantic. This one is a "mexican telenovela" with more investment in special effects but no invest in best make up. I really believe the film had to start with Bella's jumping the cliff and then explain whatever they want to explain about the risk of being a human sorrounded by vampires, and wolfs, which is not bad concept at all.… Expand

Bella, Edward a love story for the ages. Yeah, right. Teenage girls believe this sorry excuse of a movie which doesn

I'm not a fan of Twilight Saga, although I did enjoy the books. The movie, hoverer, is a disaster. The worst is of course Stewart. Her acting is horrible, she looks emotionless, is unable to potray any deeper emotions, has one facial expression during the whole movie (and open mouth, as a bonus). The crucial scene when Edward was leaving Bella in the forest was not only dull and boring but I would even say hiliarious in it's trying-so-hard-to-be-hearbreaking form that reminds us all of low quality romances and old cheap movies. The dialogues can be good for a trailer but while watching the whole movie they seem unfinished, what makes them sometimes hard to understand for people who hadn't read the book. The ending also is sort of confusing and I got the impression of missing scenes that should be there. I also don't appreciate the look of Edward who is supposed to be an 18 year old and still is dressed in suits, not casual clothes teenagers wear. Not loving the books, I still felt someting while reading them, the plot was gripping, I read them all in few days. The movie I found annoying and because I didn't want to wast the money for a ticked I forced myslelf to think it's funny.… Expand

utterly boring, soppy, drags like a cat with no back legs, just another flick for the ugly 14 year old goth girls out there that nothing ever goes right for. completely boring, it doesn't even make you think you just sit and wait for the next cheesy line to come along and believe me there are plenty, i wouldn't even call it a love story as they've gone past that, they've taken it to the extreme of a massively long soap opera x10! disgraceful.… Collapse

It

The books were okay...I would give the BOOK at 5, but this movies just turned into a JOKE! Sorry Twilight fans out there.

Soon to be one of the most overrated movies of the decade.The acting was less than average, the comedy was deadpan, and the dialogue, dear god, the dialogue was like some overlong text message. I went and saw this with a bunch of girls and they all loved it cause Taylor whatshisface takes off his shirt for no reason. Let me put it this way, This is a straight guy's worst nightmare!

I have never read any of the books, nor seen either movie. But just looking at the movie characters, then the fans makes me want to rip my eyes and ears completely off. Anyone who enjoys this crap needs to read...lets see...ANYTHING EVER WRITTEN to see how real people enjoy real literature and cinema And hes, ii am saying your not real people. LET THE CRYING BEGIN!!!

Abysmal acting, writing, editing, screenplay. Just abysmal, this film hasn't a sliver of quality in it. And having to listen the fans going "Oh my God I'm gonna cry!" when the film begins is more than enough to make you leave the theater.

This could be the worst movie I've ever seen. Like an atmospheric episode of 90210 expanded to a mind-numbing 2+ hours. Mind you, this is a vampire movie with no blood. No fangs. No sex. No plot ... utter trash. The theater was packed. There were police outside. Giant lines around the block. The crowd was SO PUMPED they screamed at the opening titles in frenzied anticipation. I thought, "This movie is going to be nuts with audience reaction/participation." I've been to those action flix in downtown Bklyn where the crowd is SHOUTING at the actors ("DON'T GO IN THAT ROOM, MONTEL!!"). This was going to be a similar phenomenon. ... then for 2+ hours the audience sat there almost completely silent (stunned? stupefied? bored?), save for a few twitters and giggles when the male actors took their shirts off (?!) that joint should have been ROCKING!!… Expand

When you're trying to make a long movie, you need to keep the audience gripped. New Moon fails to even keep you gripped for the first 5 minutes. It also seems like anti feminist propaganda with girls effectively being told to be doting to your boyfriends, even if they are jerks.

Only someone incapable of mature thought could enjoy this movie.

The worst vampire movie ever, totally boring. Fell asleep more than once.

A horrible movie the stars in it including that robert person and that one guy taylor should die.

A tedious movie that manages to wring the life out of every second of its 130 minute running time. ..130 minutes of life I'd like back.

I enjoyed the first movie and have watched it many times on dvd. By comparison, this movie lost the wider community interaction, fun spirit, and sense of existance. New Moon was just a bunch of wind sweap scenes of moaning over the next untouchable, yet 'promising to protect you and be yours forever" guy. I know there was a lot to get covered, but the movie was just dull. The slo mo action scenes (carpet blood flight, fighting wolves) just made me think of computers and think at least about the better direcion in Buffy/ Angel. I thought Hardwicke and team's music choices really blended well and added, while NM music was just tv-inspired mood backdrop. I did enjoy the boy flesh (go Team Jacob!). NM made me just wish Edward would go away.… Expand

Terrible, i can't believe how popular this series is! The story seemed over dramatic and the characters where depressed the whole time. The special effects weren't very good, and the dialogue wasn't good either. Although I must say that there is a lot of eye-candy, but that's not the point. This movie is only for girls 13-16 years old. Anyone else, stay away!!!

Worst piece of crap I have ever seen. It didn't help that I had to be dragged to the theatre to even see it. The Twilight Saga in general is a complete and utter disappointment to literature and cinema, it needs to be put down like a suffering dog.

Garbage!

What are vampires that don't drink human blood, don't have fangs and don't parish in the sunlight? Super-heroes without a gimick? You tell me. Both this and the first movie were AWFUL. I love my niece but I will never forgive her for making me sit through both of these. Poorly written, poorly acted, no actual plot and far too much dialogue for you to consider this anything other than a some sort of Lifetime made-for-tv movie with "vampires". People on here comparing this to Romeo and Juliet have clearly never read Romeo and Juliet. And the other thing I've notice, and clearly I am not the first, is that all of the positive comments are female composed. Oh well. I guess we get 300 and Troy and a bunch of other cheesey brutish flicks and they get Twilight. Maybe some day they'll actually start producing good, substantial movies again.… Expand

This was the worst movie I've seen in over a decade.

That was the worst piece of crap I have ever watched. Pootie Tang is a better movie.

I should almost give it a 1 because it certainly does exist. But it is just so shamelessly horrible and a disgrace to good film making across the world. Please enjoy the absurd amount of money you've made stephanie meyer and do us all a favor: NEVER WRITE ANYTHING ELSE AGAIN.

And I thought Disney's 'The Rocketeer' was the worst alltime, but this movie has now joined it!! How many times can Bella get hurt and somehow be saved?! How many times can they show Werewolf boy Jacob with his shirt off?! Give me a break, I've seen better plots, acting, and action from movies made in the 1950's. Stop being so rigid and entertain the rest of us!!!

This is probably the worst movie I've seen all Year. If you are a 13 - 16 year old girl, then it's just a phase. Otherwise, there's nothing that redeems this movie's torturously slow pace, Unbroken depressive moodiness, and complelete failure to feature satisfying action in such a super-hyped blockbuster. The female lead grates on the nerves the whole movie, and the male lead is non-existent. It gets a grudging one point from me because for a whole 7-8 minutes in that entire movie there was an actual vampire fight that gave insight into the relative strengths, powers, and weaknesses of the vampires in this world. Also, for the first time ever, at the end of these seven minutes, it turns out that Bella might not be completely worthless and defenseless. In summary, the entire film could be reduced to the audience with the Elder Italian Vampire Clan, and the audience would have seen everything worth seeing, regarding the male and female leads. Except that her friend is a werewolf, but she ditches him , so it doesn't really matter. I encourage others to vote this down so low that it winds up on the worst movies top 200.… Expand

I just can't describe how terrible this film was.

It

If I'd wanted to see depressed high school kids standing around moping for two hours I'd have a better time going to the mall to hang out with the emo kids.

WOW was this movie bad. Bad acting, laughable dialogue, bad music, and LONG! I must have looked at my watch 4 times wondering if the torture would EVER end. I am giving it a "1" because Michael Sheen was good in his very brief moment. It was amazing when someone who could actually ACT came on the screen. Otherwise a zero for sure.

I am only giving this a 2 because of Taylor Lautner's amazing body, talent and good sense of humor in the midst of such otherwise poor acting ability and a terribly pathetic WB-esque series of films. I gave this film a chance because I thought the books were decent, albeit ridiculous, though after all this sick, childish mania I've even turned from those. The only thing that saves this film is the man-candy that are the La Push werewolves. But Sparkles and Pathetic Swan could be killed off and these films still wouldn't have a prayer. It's painful to see what this ridiculous series has reduced vampires to. I sincerely hope this is forgotten as quickly as it began so Hollywood can make room for some real vampire films. This crap can stick to television and sad, emo teenagers who have no concept of the level of awesomeness required to make a real vampire film. No more of this vampire literature blasphemy.… Expand

Moronic and mind-numbing. Is the female youth of today really this undemanding? No wonder the divorce rate is so high. A bunch of vapid characters glaring at each other and muttering lines that are sappier than a maple tree. This is what constitutes entertainment today for this age group? At least 300 taught boys some history. The saddest part is, Romeo and Juliet (which this story weakly alludes to) is 1000% better (and more romantic), yet it's next to impossible to interest young girls in Shakespeare because we've replaced the teaching of Classics in our schools with doo-doo like this. When are we going to see movies where young girls are intelligent, capable, determined, and set on forging their own destinies. Somebody please give Joss Whedon $200 million dollars. PLEASE.… Expand

What was with the musical score in this movie? It didnt set the right tone in most of the scenes and it jus played at length thruout many of the scenes. The lack of dialogue did nothing for the viewers. I guess they assume the only ppl interested are illiterate teenage girls that can't have meaningful conversation. It was very choppy and dragged in some parts. The chemistry that Bella and Edward shared in Twilight is null and void here. I know Edward is gone for most of the story but that doesn't mean their chemistry is lacking. I don't feel Weitz caputred the romantic essence. The action sequences were fine but it was just missing that over-all tone that made the Twilight saga known.… Expand

I haven't seen this movie, and I don't have to in order to understand what type of stunted psyche would enjoy this crap. It would take a complete moron to enjoy literary and cinematic drivel such as this. Either that or a teenager. The death of cinema beckons, oh Twilight. Answer its call.

I gave the books a try, wasn't all impressed with the preteen angst romance thing. Gave the first movie a chance. Something about sparkly indecisive vampires isn't too impressive. Anne Rice got it right. Not twilight. This movie is FOR preteen girls hoping to see a bare chest. My opinion? Kristin Stewart's acting is HORRIBLE. She's emotionless and bland and just not the right person to play the role of a love sick teenager. The hospital scene in the first one was retarded, her deadpan voice was not at all convincing. All in all, she ruins the movies. Robert Patterson isn't any better. I think the two 'main stars' of the movie are the worst things about it. The rest of the actors at least know how to portray a character.… Expand

Just another MTV mess with no real acting, campy dialogue, and shoddy semi-existent plot. The only reason I'll give it a one is because of the mass of shirtless hot dudes.

This movie is slower than tar in winter. The first action of the movie is at 1hr 15min and that lasts for 2 minutes. I like Kristen Stewart but the bad dream scenes with her screaming in agony in bed almost made me leave the movie THREE times... I wish someone sucked the life force out of me before this movie did. The sad thing is the movie will make millions says a lot about our over hyped and mind numbing standards.… Expand

Since this was not my favorite book of the series, I went in with low expectations. This is was a movie with no plot, poorly acted, there was no flow and it was very disjointed and slow. It was surprisingly far worse then I could have expected. I bumped it up to a 1 because there were a few lines I enjoyed even if poorly delivered.

What's most important in a love story? Two completely likable characters. Unfortunately, Bella and Edward do not qualify. Bella is a co-dependent, selfish, teasing, manipulative, emotionless hack of a character that nobody can, and shouldn't, relate to. When she gets dumped by Edward, she rides with bikers, throws herself off a cliff, and crashes a motorcycle that results in a bad head injury solely just to fuel her adrenaline-induced hallucinations of Edward. Edward, on the other hand, is nothing more than physically dangerous and emotionally abusive. The highlight of his character happens not too far into the movie where he tries to 'protect' Bella from a fellow vampire set off by her blood. His first instinct is to push her out of the way and into a plate glass table while running at mach 5. After that, he dumps her. New Moon, much like Twilight, just serves as eye candy to underage girls and single women. There's not a hint of a true romance here. Titanic and Beauty and the Beast still stand as my favorite romance movies because I could relate to the characters, and I wanted them to get together. Anybody that relates to either of these characters needs some serious help.… Expand

Worst movie ever! Although I should give it a star for making me laugh so often at the horrible acting, awful screenplay, and giggling girls and grown women. Every time Edward opened his mouth, i could not stop from laughing . Waste of time and money, unless you want to laugh at a movie not intended to be funny. Stay away!

Ass. Pure ass. Never have I seen such a piece of crap. Oh wait. Never have I WATCHED a piece of crap.

I wished I was dead...and not in a good way.

I love how many of the reviews basically boil down to "if your a fan of the books than you'll love this movie!" Wouldn't it be easier to just say "if your a mindless idiot with no taste you will love these movies!" Of course if you love the books you'll love the movies. The books are perhaps one of the worst written novels of all time. Terrible plot, terrible grammar, vapid shallow characters, and a horrible of example of what love should be. The movie mirrors all of this perfect. You watch the movie almost thinking they intended to parody themselves.… Expand

Crap personified. A sequel for the brain dead bunch, who believe Twilight is vampires at their perfection. Well guess what? IT'S FAR FROM IT! Allow me to sum up Twilight in 10 words! "I'm brooding!" "I love you" Sparkle, Fight, Shine, Crap, End! If there is a god, he'll/she'll immediatley cancel the two sequels, burn all footage of all 4 films and erase this pathetic excuse for a vampire saga from everybody's memories.… Expand

I really wish i wasn't one of the many that end up disliking the Twilight series, but sadly i am. this movie was technically fine if you're into the love of vampires. The fight scene was pretty cool, but what got me, was the HORRIBLE acting. It was just terrible throughout the whole freaking movie. The actress who plays as "Bella" has a lot to learn given that I think her performance was the worst out of everyone in the movie. "Edward" 's acting was not that grand as well. and Taylor (werewolf guy) did ok, I really wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless they were already involved in the series, which means they probably already saw it. So, yeah......not a good 8 bucks spent at the movies.… Expand

I'll admit it I actually liked the first one, but this was a terribly boring piece of crap, it took nothing that made the first one enjoyable, I highly recommend on not watching this.

It's another sequel that is worse than the first movie.

A very bad movie. It is better than the first Twilight. It just lacks excitement and that WOW factor. The Plot was very ridiculous. The acting of the characters (especially Taylor Lautner) was just corny and terrible. Maybe some teenagers may like it because of the impact of the characters but I will certainly not like this one. But I have to give them credit for the effort. Unfortunately, this is just a vampire movie turned into a nightmare for movie-goers.....… Expand

Uhhh WTF did I just watch. I haven't read the book but the entire film seems so unrealistic as in the situations will just never happen some of you may say "well thats coz its a fantasy film noob" well LOTR was a fantasy film and it was more realistic than this pile of garbage I mean wtf.

The sequel to one of the worst films ever made takes the crown of being the actual worst film ever made. At what point in the film is anything interesting, and when is the plot anything more than tedious? This really is a film franchise that needs to end, and it wont be missed by the film-going community when it does, that can be said.

I assume the hardcore-fans will enjoy it but since I am neither a fan nor a reader of Meyer's work I was quite disappointed by New Moon. Twilight had some poor dialogues and excessive romance but I found it a reasonable film, so I had good expectations. Its sequel, though, it is not a improvement. On the contrary, they sucked out everything good about Twilight and only left its worst aspects.

New Moon was pretty boring. It had a bad story with a long absence of fun and charm. It did have a couple good moments but there wasn't much to like.

Well what can be said for this ridiculous, sopey un emotionally romantic movie that hasn't already been said. Well i only just watched these films and let me tell you this it felt like someone stuck my testicles into a blender and put it on the slowest speed possible. these films are terrible.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I am unable to criticize too much a film but in this case, yes. New Moon is certainly one of the most morally harmful to the film world. I still can not believe that the is love between Edward and Belle. Edward that moves away from Belle so as not to hurt (which, however, the wounds). Belle gets depressed and is four months without doing anything to fight back, then he consoles himself with Jacob and then it happens here in the chaos.
