i would have given one star but... since the fight scene was decent... but still crappy as the first one...

Between the cheesy dialogue, craptacular acting (Kristen Stewart has to be nominated for a Razzie), shoddy special effects and boring plot, it's impossile to keep a straight face. You know there's something terribly wrong when a film's sole purpose is to get its male actors shirtless.
wiwiwiwiwiw twilight is the movies that i will never 4get 4ever...it make my heart full of emotion...
Bien mieux que le 1er (grace aux effets spéciaux et qqs scènes d'actions) j'ai tjs beaucoup de mal a être fan de cette saga. Les dialogues sont dignes des "Feux de l'Amour" à peine sauvés par des beaux acteurs qui y croient vraiment! Mais c'est ...

Les dialogues sont dignes des "Feux de l'Amour" à peine sauvés par des beaux acteurs qui y croient vraiment! Mais c'est un bon moment.
Realmente más de adolescentes perdidos con un estereotipo bien harto del amor imposible. By the way, la escritora es mormona...creo que ahà hay algo que me dice que por eso la peli es asÃ.
Critic Reviews
New Moon offers few of the juicy, go-for-broke romantic pleasures of its predecessor, and the movie is so badly shaped that it's hard not to blame Weitz as a director.full review
I can't comment on the acting because I didn't catch Pattinson, Stewart and Lautner doing any. They basically primp and pose through the same humdrum motions they did before.full review
The movie gives the 'Twilight' fans exactly what they want but doesn't offer too much for the rest of us.full review
Weitz is more awkward than Hardwicke with the casual teenaged interactions. Melissa Rosenberg's dialogue hasn't improved, though she gets a boost by using quotes from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet.full review
Kristen Stewart brings such raw vulnerability to the screen that she makes moping attractive.full review
Alexandre Desplat's overwrought musical score will appeal to viewers who already agree that Bella and Edward's love is glorious. Others won't be persuaded, no matter how much he insists.full review
The pop culture phenomenon that resembles Star Wars much as the Prime Minister of Belgium resembles the President of the United States (respective box office ranks of these two films in their respective decades: 71, 1).full review
Though an improvement over the first Twilight film, this sequel (both based on Stephenie Meyer's best-selling books) drags and sputters, even in scenes meant to be infused with passion.full review
The Twilight Saga: New Moon takes the tepid achievement of Twilight, guts it, and leaves it for undead.full review
