Yesterday, I decided to see "New Moon" and to be honest I was a bit disappointed. It is not really a thriller, it is a slow love story and kind of boring I could say. What do you think?

As much as I hate to say this, it really bored me a lot. True that the production was way better ahead compared to Twilight but all in all, the story was dull, the casts have so much to improve on and I always find myself dozing off while watching the movie with my boyfriend. I find it sooo irrational realizing that a teenager didn't do anything much about her life but to get herself so distracted with their hopeless love affair. lol.

I just saw this movie the other day and I quite enjoyed it although I didn't expect to. I agree it was a slow developing story, (my hubby slept through most of it) but there was a story to follow through, not just lots of action. Bellas hurt and confusion really showed through as well as Jacob's feelings growing over time and the way he dealt with the changes in his life. Maybe I enjoyed because I had low expectations in the first place but now I am interested to see how the next movie turns out :)

I didn't read the book and I don't intend to do so. I have many friends who are fans of the novel. I did watch the first movie. Since there are vampires, I expected more action but it turned out to be a draggy love story. There was only 5 minutes of fighting (boring!! =.=) I nearly fell asleep while watching the movie.

Personally, I hated the movie in general. But I got to love Jacob's part on the saga. I even changed sides from team Edward to team Jacob, and not because of his 8-pack abs (but maybe it adds to my judgment). I got to feel Jacob's feelings, and how sincere his love is with Bella. So to really explain what I just said, I loved Taylor Lautner's convincing acting, but hated the movie itself.

I know I've heard peoplee said that but from my point of view it was fine by me as I liked the way story turns at the end..but yes that was too depressing to see that Pattison just left her at the start of movie without any strong reason that made the movie romantic thriller instead of action one..Lets see how Eclipse turns out..

I watched the twilight movie along time ago when it first came out on video. Recently I borrowed the twilight and new moon books from the library. I was less impressed with the new moon book compared to twilight. I wonder if the next books will get better or worse. I borrowed new moon from our local library and just watched it last night. I was surprised with how exact it was to the book I liked that. But still twilight was much better then new moon. I still want to read the other two books and see the other two movies as well.

Yah right I agree with you... Sometimes, vampire love story is quite common. don't you think?
