WOW...That is the word that everyone should be saying to this movie. What this movie brings is something that no one expects. In the first we find out about Edward and his family are Vampires, but now in New Moon we have Jacob and his family transform into wolves that is just something you dont expect when watching Twilight.

When You first watch a vampire movie or show you first think its going to be gory...But these showed a whole different side to the vampire story. Meaning they still come out in daylight, you dont have the whole garlic thing going on. We have just vampires trying to live a normal life.

I personally think that Bella should stay with Jacob but according to what the books say that never happens. I cant wait to see Eclipse there is going to be alot of new people and alot more to look foward too.

New Moon with Old Tricks

If you've read the books, there's no spoiler here.... Before entering the theater, I definitely paused at the table selling Team Edward and Team Jacob T-shirts. It caused a moment of self-reflection: Which team AM I? Team Edward or Team Jacob? The cold vampiric Edward Cullen or the warm werewolf Jacob? Which group of teen girls would I "Woo hoo!" with when my leading man came on screen? It's the question that engages the female audience … more

This Film is SUCKAGE...But it Doesn't Even Suck Blood!

Let’s get one thing out the way; I am not this film’s target audience and I am not at all familiar with Stephanie Meyer’s books. So why the heck would I even bother to see the sequel to “Twilight” when I didn’t like it at all? Well, my friend @Sean_Rhodes had created a list of “Twilight” promotional products that were quite frankly a little freaky and I do work with someone who is a closet fan, so I said why the heck not? “The Twilight … more

New Moon... not as good as Twilight

Twihards went out in full force and filled midnight screenings all over Manhattan. The same time late year I attended the midnight screening of Twilight on 34th st, but choose to catch the second installment at a theater in queens, and the thing I noticed is that those who attended the screening all seemed to be much older then the fans that attended the first film. Was it the area? Is it just the the fans have grown up that much in the past year? Or is the Twilight series beginning to become so … more

the twilight franchise redeems its self!

I was so disgusted with the first Twilight movie that i didn't even want to go see this one. But after much prompting from my friends i went to see it and was surprisingly....not disappointed. The plot followed the book so well it was painfully obvious that it was a different director, one who clued in to the fact that Twilight fans don't want to pay $10 to see their favorite books mangled and massacred accross the screen. To say that the acting greatly improved would be an … more

"New Moon" Succeeds at Being Less Cheesy Than its Predecessor...and at Being a Better Film...

While New Moon personally isn't the best of the Twilight series of the books, its now turned out to be the better of the films that have come out thus far. New Moon's new film direction makes it very understandable why Catherine Hardwicke got kicked out of the directors chair for the sequel. New director Chris Weitz, who was responsible for directing The Golden Compass, gave New Moon a more serious feel while attempting to take as much cheese out of the film as possible. While … more

It's a Full Moon

When it comes to the Twilight Saga, there's no denying the unusual popularity (no matter how strange it may be). I read all four books and while I'm not big fan of Twilight, I actually will admit that when it came to New Moon, I rather liked that story. Probably because Edward was hardly in it, but also because it's the only story which introduces us to Jacob. The only reason I like Jacob? He's the only character Meyer ever created that seemed to have actual dimension. … more

No Sex ... I Mean, No Biting Until After Graduation

I spent much of my review for "Twilight" pointing out how the story was a Mormon abstinence parable masked as a teen vampire romance. "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" is essentially the same thing, but this time around, I was more bothered by its unbearable pacing, its emotionless performances, and its confusing subplots, none of which will make much sense unless you're intimately familiar with both the first film and all of Stephenie Meyer's books. Already then, a sizeable audience has been alienated, … more

Drama, Obsession, Angst and a Little Entertainment.

Team Jacob, Team Edward? I must say I'm in neutral territory on this one. After seeing Twilight and then attempting to read the book I'm giving all that I've absorbed a thumb's up for storytelling and creativity, and a thumb's down for over-the-top drama. However, even though I will not join either team Edward or Jacob at this point in time, the story lines of nebulous good vs. evil, love vs. obsession and immortality are fascinating. … more

About this movie

Wiki

The second movie in Stephenie Meyer's vampire saga finds Bella shortly after her 18th birthday, Edward and his family leave the town of Forks, Washington in an attempt to save Bella from the dangers of "their world". Depressed and heartbroken, Bella meanders aimlessly through her senior year. However, when she's in danger, the image of Edward comes to her. Through her deepening desire to be with him, she puts herself in greater danger and takes more risks.

A childhood friend, Jacob helps her build a motorbike to carry her on her travels and suddenly her once cold heart starts to warm with the budding relationship with Jacob, a member of a secret tribe with a supernatural secret all his own.

When Bella comes face to face with her arch nemesis, a group of supernatural wolves come to her rescue and it becomes clear that she is still in grave danger. She finds out Jacob's tribe's secret and the real reason Edward left. She ends up in a potentially deadly reunion with Edward which was far from what she had expected.
