I don't actually have much to say about this film, but there was the running commentary in my head, which describes the film accurately and went something like this:
Edward, why the hell did you shove Bella into the shelf of breakable stuff? You're such a crap boyfriend; ew, gross, she sucks at emotional breakdown; mmmm, shirtless guys; is it just me or are the sparkle effects more annoying than they were last film?; ahahaha that action film dialogue; Edward put a shirt on, nobody wants to see your naked chest; hahahaha elevator scene; ooh, that's the dude from Sanctuary, isn't he a vampire or something in that, too?; mmmm, Cameron Bright; lol @ "It'd be nice to not want to eat you all the time"; ...dude, that "cliffhanger" is so not impressive.
Wall of text aside, there's another thing I'd like to address here. Everyone complains about the sparkling. I mean, okay, even I complain about the sparkling, but wouldn't you complain about ridiculous ~*~beams of light~*~ and shimmery sound effects? That's not my main complaint with it, though. No, my main complaint is how everyone in-universe takes it so seriously.
I mean, "This is the skin of A KILLER!!!1!" *sparkle sparkle sparkle* Yeah, no. I'm sorry, but I can't take that seriously.
It would have made much more sense if that entire scene had gone more like this:
"Bella, you know I'm a vampire and that I can't kiss you without wanting to eat your face off, but there's more you need to know."
"Tell me. I want to know everything about you."
"It's something I need to show you. Come with me."
*insert hike through woods to meadow here*
"Bella, watch."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...what? Bella, what's wrong?"
"You... sparkle."
"...yes."
"Seriously?"
"Yes."
"Seriously?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I... I don't know! It's a vampire thing. It happens to all of us in sunlight."
"Really."
"Yes, really. It's better than bursting into flame."
"It is better than that."
"..."
"Uh, could you step back out of the sunlight? You're hurting my eyes."
"Oh! Oh, right, sorry."

Twilight is not the best book you've read (so please get over it) unless it's the only book you've read, in which case all your comments about Twilight being the best have been deemed unimportant

I could have sworn there was another one this year... or maybe that was just me guessing because there were two last year? |: I'm confused now, haha.
