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

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

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?

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

Bella is a co-dependent, selfish, teasing, manipulative, emotionless hack of a character that nobody can, and 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

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.

'The Twilight Saga: New Moon' is an excruciating exercise in filmmaking and overall film entertainment. One must wonder what the filmmakers were thinking when they finished making this and probably thought, "We did a good job, here!".

The film continues more or less where the first film left off. In that we see Bella (Kristen Stewart) still living with her father and is having nightmares about being old and the fact that her vampire lover, Edward (Robert Pattinson) will never age, and hasn't done so since he was 17. Later on, we see that Edward doesn't want to risk Bella's life by having himself in it, so he tells her that he's going away, and that she must not do anything erratic. Despite his leaving being the best for both of them, she cannot seem to function without him, nor can he stop concerning himself over her.

Bella decides to bond even more closely with Jacob Black (an often topless Taylor Lautner), in which she soon discovers that werewolves become a part of his life, and how they are not so keen on vampires. This then leads to a constant conflict as to whether or not Bella is attracted to Edward or Jacob, not only is she facing the difficult decision over which bland boyfriend she wants, but they could not be more opposite if they tried. It's almost like choosing between a PC or a Mac...they're rivals in every way, but you cannot make the decision over which is best for you.

The film moves at a frustratingly slow pace, it doesn't help as well that the characters presented to us are no more interesting either. Kristen Stewart lacks the ability to show enthusiasm in her performance, unless that is how Stephanie Meyer (the writer of these books) wanted the character to be. It makes me wonder why two guys like Edward and Jacob are so fascinated by Bella...there is nothing about her character that seems so special. I'm not sure if I should blame Stewart's performance, or if I should blame the direction by Chris Weitz, or if I should blame the screenplay by Melissa Rosenberg.

"New Moon" is absolutely devoid of interest, devoid of fun, devoid of a compelling execution for a story. It doesn't hook you in like most "sagas" are supposed to...instead it leaves you hungry, impatient, and overall, dissatisfied.… Expand

Whilst I decided to, I will give my thoughts on the entire pentalogy which I've never heard of the term before so I gotta get on point with them so let's stop p***ing about and let's get on with it. On Bella's 18th birthday she wakes up from a dream where she is an old woman and Edward Cullen. His family host a birthday reception for her. Whilst Bella had a paper cut Jasper is overwhelmed by the scent of her blood, he decides to attack her but is restrained. Edward believes that he and his family are putting Bella's life in danger so he decides to end their relationship and he and the Cullens leave Forks. For months, Bella is depressed and isolated. She meets with Jacob Black played by Taylor Lautner and they develop a strong friendship. Okay, now I can get to my problems here with it, not just because I don't like the film but just because this movie took directions and making it a complete mess. When Edward leaves Bella and depart from Forks, he did that to protect her and told her not to do anything reckless and he won't interrupt her what so ever. What does he do? He interrupts her to keeping from trouble and danger. Jeez, you just told her that she can move on without any interference from you. Jesus Christ, why don't you just f**k off? I think you know all the rest of what's going on when it comes to me doing these movies, 'cause this whole saga never ends. The Twilight Saga: New Moon, it sucks, I'm on to the next one, bye.… Expand
