ECLIPSE




The 3rd movie of Twilight Saga, Eclipse, was recently released. My friends and I watched it on its first premier day. I got so agitated and thrilled that I watched it again 2 days after. I really expected a lot from Eclipse because the past two movies, New Moon and Twilight, disappointed me. Twilight for me seemed a little too glum. New Moon was very incomplete. They did not include the good parts. Gladly, Eclipse did not disappoint me at all. Although I think some of its actors and actresses did not do much of a good job, I still liked how the movie turned out to be.

                If I were to critique the movie, I would say it is pretty good. I thought the meadow looked beautiful and the fighting scenes were very cool. The house of the Cullens looked even more sophisticated and amazing. The locations they picked were very fitting for the scenes and the songs and sound effects were perfect. My top favorite scenes of the movie include: (not in any particular order)

·      1. The scene where Jacob went to Forks High School to see if Bella was still human. Jacob’s smile was so cute when Bella decided to go with him to the reservation. =)
·    2.When it was Alice’s turn to practice with Jasper in preparation for the upcoming fight with the new borns. They were so cute! I made a tiny shriek when they kissed. =D
·      3.I so loved the dialogue between Edward and Jacob when they were inside the tent the night before the fight took place. Everybody in the theater laughed when Jacob said to Edward: “I am hotter.” And “Bella is in love with you. But she’s in love with me too.” I really envied Bella because it was in that scene where you can really see how much both Jacob and Edward love her.
·     4.The fighting scene between the Cullens and the wolves, and the new borns. I really liked the outfit of the Cullens. Although I thought you are supposed to tear the whole body apart. Not the head nor the arms only.
·       5.When the Cullens and the wolves practiced for their fight with the new born army.

Note: Though it may be more entertaining to watch movies, I think it is always good to read the book. That is if the movie is based on a novel or book. Basing on experience, the story in the book is always better.
