So I got returned from taking my Younger Sister to see this movie. I saw all the trailers over the past few months, yet I had absolutely NO hope for this movie. But I had seen all of the previous ones... and out of those 4, only Eclipse was the good one- but even that had its flaws! But I ended up pre-booking film tickets for this one, In IMAX, at Wimbeldon in Odeon... and now, what can I say about this movie? This movie Completely SURPRISED ME! Never been a fan of the series, gave every film a run for their money- but as it turns out, I actually had a great time with this movie. My mates at College are probably going to get pissy with me... but screw them, I'll tell them every reason.
Now I don't hate Kristen Stewart, but her acting ability in the previous films (Including Eclipse) have been- appalling! However, as a vampire, while her skill still isn't great, I can definitely buy her emotionless moods this time.
Taylor Lautner, the same acting at points, but not as much of an idiot this time, so I didn't roll my eyes this time- thankfully.
Also, for a Twilight film- there was quite a surprisingly large amount of action, I mean there is an entire section for about 10 - 15 minutes dedicated to this- surprisingly intense Battle Sequence, which was later a huge bummer, as it actually turned out to be a Vision- which actually annoyed the hell out of the entire theatre... But despite this, I still found the Battle enjoyable...
So where doe's that leave us? I walked out with my Sister, with a smile on my face, speechless actually... of course it will never be the best film of the year, but it's actually worth checking out- almost makes me want to go and watch it again.
In the end- Basic story, Good action, Mixed Acting from all of the cast, Mixed VFX (Baby Renesmee was a little creepy, But the Shield Bella cast was pretty cool- worth the IMAX tickets, actually!).
I will leave this movie at 7 out of 10... Giving the entire Twilight saga, a 4.5 out of 10...
