not that bad...but not the best...

Finally, after months of just telling myself I will watch a movie, I did. Along with my friend Abie, we watched "New Moon" no matter what...


Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of Stephanie Mayer or anything to do with vampires, but I read the "Twilight" series, I just got the hang of it. It was a fad in our office a year ago and now it was finally interpreted in the big screen.

No wonder, the publicity and exposures of Robert Pattinson [who plays Edward] and Kristin Stewart [who plays Bella] brought huge clamor for the public to get too curious to watch the movie. Adding up a new character, Jacob Black [played by Taylor Lautner], brought a little spice to the plot. I would say "New Moon" is better than the first one, "Twilight". Forgive me, but I was really pissed with the first one cause of it's poor cinematography and interpretation. Watching the first 5 minutes and I really wanted to go home, but I just don't want to make my money flush down the drain...Sad to say, it did...


As always, don't expect too much for movies based on book adaptations because you'll end up with disappointments. C'mon guys, it's just common sense that books can't be turned into movies in every nitty gritty detail or we'll all end up in movie houses for days. I would suggest that treat it as if you've never read the book or if you really can't help it, don't watch it.


Overall, it's better but not the best that I've watched...I would say that is the last movie I have watched in the big screen for 20-0-9...More to watch, but that will be next year already...Holidays are just eating my "me" time...
