The Twilight Saga: New Moon

Too long, too saccharine, too clichéd, it was so blatant at times. The first hour was completely unnecessary, the second was better. I liked the werewolves, but they were given very little space. Bella, what can I say, she's such an unstable nymphomaniac who doesn't know whether she wants the werewolf or the vampire. I wasn't expecting any wonders from the film, so I'm completely satisfied and it fulfills its role: to make a lot of money (see BoxOfficeMojo). The teenage girls sigh like Bella and the rest of us at times (some all the time) peel our eyes away from the screen. (05/12/2009)

While the first film is ridiculous only from about the middle, here the volleys of laughter were flying through the movie theater from the beginning. It’s all already been said. I could only add that Weitz can somehow present it even more metro-sexually and in the "Edward, do me a child" sort of way. Regardless, given the insane amount of "guilty pleasure" atmosphere, it doesn't have tome to bore you, which is good in a way. But to be fair, the passage with the werewolves is entertaining in a relatively real way (Victoria's chase to the sounds of Thom Yorke is fantastic). It’s the most honest bullshit of the season. I’m anxiously awaiting David Slade’s work. (14/12/2009)

To all opponents, all mockers, and all cynics, access is once again prohibited. Because here, the suffering from a broken heart continues, desperate actions have no end, and for true love, everyone would go to the ends of the earth (and maybe even further). What the book pulverized in endless repeated reflections on the same topic, Chris Weitz has managed to transform into a romantic/adventurous spectacle. Tolerance is still necessary, but those who did not reject at first should not do so now either. (14/12/2009)

Hands down one of the worst films (in every aspect) I have ever seen. Glaring technical and dramaturgical incompleteness, holes in the script, insane actors, a plot about nothing. Watching this nonsense for 125 minutes was literally a superhuman task. A completely twisted film without a hint of tension, visual aesthetics, or proper mythology. Teen romance that turns into an eternal battle between werewolves and vampires. Rubbish and doesn't even come close to a one-star rating. (26/08/2012)

I simply have to ask: "What does Martha Stewart do?" Other than that, I don't know how to feel about this experience. Unintentional laughter over laughter in almost every shot and sentence? Come on. What was seen and why remains hidden from us. If this was a ten-minute short, it could be funny... but Dakota's participation is a scam. (09/11/2011)
