Editorial Review:

Product Description:
THE ROMANCE BETWEEN MORTAL BELLA SWANN AND VAMPIRE EDWARD CULLEN GROWS MORE INTENSE AS ANCIENT SECRETS THREATEN TO DESTROY THEM. WHEN EDWARD LEAVES IN ORDER TO KEEP BELLA SAFE, SHE TESTS FATE IN INCREASINGLY RECKLESS WAYS IN ORDER TO GLIMPSE HER LOVE ONCE MORE.

Amazon.com:
New Moon, the second in Stephenie Meyer's blockbuster teen-fiction saga adapted for film, is stronger than its predecessor, Twilight. Director Chris Weitz (The Golden Compass), taking the helm from Catherine Hardwicke, brings a lighter, more assured touch to the sequel, which continues the star-crossed love story of mortal Bella (Kristen Stewart) and vampire Edward (Robert Pattinson). Incidentally, Edward is absent for most of the film; after an accident on Bella's birthday reminds Edward that her life is always at risk when he's around, he chooses to abandon her, sending her into a deep depression. The only person who helps her heal her broken heart is her friend Jacob (Taylor Lautner), a member of the Quileute tribe who, as he grows taller, beefier, and more aggressive (with less clothing), comes to realize he's not entirely human either. But even his love for Bella doesn't prevent her from throwing herself in the path of danger, because that's the only time she can see visions of Edward. One such fateful misunderstanding sends Edward into the coven of the Volturi (a sort of vampire Mafia, if you will), where the most dangerous vampires hold both Edward and Bella's fate in their cold, dark hands. Much of New Moon rests on the shoulders of Lautner, so scrawny in Twilight, who famously packed on the muscle to avoid getting recast. He's very nearly successful in carrying the load, but the cheese-tastic beefcake scenes disservice him, and Jacob and Bella's complicated friendship stumbles on its way to any kind of love triangle. Some of that blame lies with Stewart, who understandably holds her emotions close to her chest but reveals much too little (c'mon, even an angsty girl has to be a little joyful in the arms of two different hunks). As is with the book, the film is just a bridge between sagas, so the plot drags and not a lot happens. Fortunately, while Twilight was trapped in its own self-consciousness, the wobbly-legged cast seems to have found stronger footing in New Moon; the jokes come faster, the writing (by Melissa Rosenberg, who also scribed Twilight) is a hair wittier. (Even Pattinson seems more comfortable in Edward's skin.) The Volturi, highlighted by Michael Sheen's Aro and Dakota Fanning's Jane, also make an all-too-brief impression, but at least there's more to look forward to when Eclipse, the third installment, is released. --Ellen A.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Argument for re-reinstatement of my Man Card...
I did not watch this movie. My Mother-In-Law and Sister-In-Law were in town over the Holiday Weekend and along with my wife decided that they wanted to rent this "Vampire" movie because the other multiple viewings of this movie were just not enough for them. According to them, this is a great movie so the 5-star review is actually not Representative of my personal views, just that of my wife and her sister and mother.

At the time I was in the midst of honing my channel surfing skillz ... Read More

I really love this movie .......
it came so fast .......
GREAT service thank you again:)



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Lacks credibility
The problem w/New Moon is that it takes itself too seriously while giving the audience plenty of reasons to consider it a joke.

I try not to read too much into movies, and I believe that individuals are responsible for their own actions, but I agree that this movie has influence on young girls, and yep, older women as well. I was in junior high once, and a lot of the dialog resembled what I remembered hearing btwn boyfriends and girlfriends. You know, back in the day when you had a major ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - love twilight good price
Wanted to get teh second Twilight. Recently bought a new Blu ray so I wanted to get a blu Ray disc. I love the movie. I am most disappointed that no matter where I looked they did not make a combo Pack. I would to be able to watch this in my bedroom but I can't since its a DVD player. Most new movies have the combo pack option. I am not going to buy the DVD as well!
Otherwise I love the movie. It is a great sequal to the first one. Not a mans movie, defently more of a chick movie. My husband fell ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Obsession is not love--sorry kids...((possible spoilers))
And women who should know better. I just watched New Moon last night via Netflix. That was pretty much the only way I would watch it bc I would never have paid for a ticket. From the beginning, the hype killed my interest. The actors were everywhere. I couldn't shop at Nordstrom w/o seeing their cardboard cutouts. Teens were going nuts, women my age (27) going nuts, women my MOM'S age were going nuts. First movie I didn't watch til this year when we had a blizzard. I watched NM last night and it was bad. ...
