Movie Review: Eclipse



Probably the one film of the Twilight saga that, at its core, had a good, Hollywood-esque story to work with: a love triangle, suspense, action and the return of our favorite evils - the Volturi (a.k.a. Dakota Fanning) and "Victoria." That said, this movie was pretty good. The best part may be the way it pulls viewers deeper into Bella's (Kristen Stewart) world, giving them a chance to learn more about both the Cullens and the wolves, or it may be the action/special effects. Sure there were the painfully awkward scenes as one comes to expect when watching any one of these films, but those were much more infrequent than in its predecessors. Plus, if you're looking for a new crush look no further than Riley, played by Xavier Samuel.
Best on-screen moment: Hilarity ensues when Charlie (Billy Burke) breaks up a near brawl between Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Jacob (Taylor Lautner), prompting Jacob to explain what happened.
