I say that because in New Moon, she spent a good part of it whining about not caring about her soul and wanting to be changed regardless of the consequences and Edward offers her a condition for him to change her (other than the fact that there is kind of a Volturi high order that it has to happen and everyone acts like she has a choice). Although there is this sense of lack of continuation from her character in the New Moon. Its something I have criticized about the Twilight saga’s previous two films which seems to be slightly remedied in Eclipse.īella is slightly more bearable in this one. Its nice that other than the triangle, there is still a little more to learn about the werewolves and vampire histories along with a how things work sort of thing going on on both the werewolf and vampire front. The supporting characters have a bit more back story as to the pros and cons of Bella becoming a vampire and the central part is still convincing her to consider her options. It has more action and shows other people’s stories rather than just the love triangle and Bella’s crazy intense love for Edward. With that said, Eclipse does deliver more this time. While the stories aren’t complex in itself and has its flaws (which I’ll talk about more later), it still relies heavily on how you feel about its main and supporting characters and the relationship map that has been developed over the last 2 films. The main reason is its characters and how the decisions usually end on some cliffhanger and it carries to the next one. I do maintain that Twilight is one of those movie franchises that have to be watched in sequence as the sequels by itself will not stand well alone. – IMDBĮclipse is definitely a colossal step up from New Moon and much better than Twilight. Lets stop the rambling and check this one out!Ĭast: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner, Ashley Greene, Billy Burke, Gil Birmingham, Bryce Dallas Howard, Peter Facinelli, Kellan Lutz, Nikki Reed, Dakota FanningĪs a string of mysterious killings grips Seattle, Bella, whose high school graduation is fast approaching, is forced to choose between her love for vampire Edward and her friendship with werewolf Jacob. Watching a franchise after its been completely released has that downfall where its already all out as to what will happen so don’t be surprised when we get to Breaking Dawn that I would already have an idea where the story is headed. As long Jacob hangs around, there is still hope. After New Moon’s somewhat lackluster viewing, my expectations have never been lower on where it has gone but then, I also feel like once you hit bottom, the only way is up. Moving right along in our time crunch before February ends to check out the rest of the Twilight saga, we are at the third movie, Eclipse.
