As a hardcore Twilight fan who has seen the movies a thousand and one times and read the books even more, it needs to be said that New Moon was not what was expected. For the most part, the fight scenes were spectacular and what kind of woman would I be if I said I wasn't drooling over Taylor Lautner's abs?
Bella Swan isn't as strong a character as she was in the first movie; for being in love with someone, she certainly doesn't go out of her way to make him stay. When Jasper attacks Bella at her birthday party, Edward and his family decide to leave Forks. Upon this decision, Edward skips school to break into Bella's room to take everything that would ever remind her of him. I mean really, it's bad enough that you are bailing on her, but to take her memories is just low.
We see Bella completely docile for a few months, screaming every night from the nightmares that are brought on by the absence of her vampire ex. Enter Jacob, a sexy sixteen year old trapped in a twenty-five year old body. Having been in love with Bella for a while now, he decides that now is the time to make his move. Bad timing, because now he's a werewolf.
After Alice has a vision of Bella cliff diving, she automatically assumes Bella has killed herself, prompting her to pay Charlie a visit. Finding Bella alive, she now has to stop Edward from getting himself killed. But wait, didn't Edward leave Bella? Interesting...
The whole point of the movie is that Edward loves Bella so much that he would torture himself to live without her, just to keep her safe. Bella loves Edward so much, that she would string along another guy just to not have to be alone while patiently awaiting his return. It's not that this blogger hates Bella, it's just that I don't understand how you could love someone so much that you would let them leave in the first place.
The movie itself was pretty good, but like most of the people that watched it, I definitely hated the ending. I won't provide a spoiler, but for those who have seen it or at least read the books- you know what I'm talking about.
