New Moon is one of the best book adaptations I've ever seen! It had improved greatly from Twilight, which in my opinion, was not a very good movie- so i'm sure New Moon will turn some haters The directing was amazing,... Full review

Good movie that is worth seeing, especially if you are a Twilight fan, but the book was beter. And for all the emotions Bella is supposed to have, not one tear from Kristen Stewart.... Full review
I read all four Twilight books a long time ago when they first came out - I liked the general idea but thought that the writing and plot was terrible, and after the whole Twilight hysteria I ended up HATING everything... Full review

Ok I'm not sure what the fans mean when they say this movie stays close to the book. I've only read the Saga twice but I was very disappointed with how they presented the story line. It is true that the... Full review

St. Louis Post-Dispatch
But "New Moon" feels fresh without sacrificing what fans liked about the original movie....The set-up for the next movie in the series, tentatively slated for release in a year, becomes clear in the final, obvious scene.....the special effects are more convincing.....Bella and Edward's dramatic dialogue is still the deadliest thing in this movie full of undead characters..... ...

Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are interesting to watch.....The second film in the series is bigger, better in the effects and more vibrant visually, which is crucial -....Composer Alexandre Desplat (one of the best working in movies today) supports the constant, abstinence-only yearning with an exceptionally subtle score..... ...

Blood boils during "The Twilight Saga: New Moon.....Twilight Saga" fans will be glad to contemplate the sequel's themes about life, love, commitment, sex and sacrifice.....It's hard to imagine anyone not a "Twi"-hard (as devoted fans have been nicknamed) buying the slow pacing, flat dialogue and lackluster visuals..... ...

The trouble with this fitfully entertaining sequel is....At the packed screening I attended, massed teenage girls gasped in unison when Mr Pattinson first appeared, and seemed delighted by the film that followed.....So he takes drastic action.....director Chris Weitz doesn't quite capture the moody, saturated visual style that made the first film so nice to look at..... ...

But New Moon is effective....this critic loves or loathes the film, is irrelevant.....Nevertheless, Chris Weitz's eagerly anticipated follow-up to Catherine Hardwicke's blockbuster vampire epic Twilight isn't half bad:....But even if a supernatural soap opera isn't your thing, New Moon contains some dazzling imagery and action sequences that are simply beautiful to behold.....If New Moon has any real flaws, they're certainly no fault of the filmmakers..... ...
