I was never a fan of the Twilight Saga.
When watched the 1st and 2nd movies of this saga, I was annoyed.
I couldn't understand the craze over Kristen Stewart's dead acting. Or even Rob Pattinson's so-called charming character. Or even the oh-so-hot Taylor Lautner.
I certainly thought it was overrated, cheap hopeless romantic kinda movie.
But... there was a love-hate relationship. I hated the acting and the storyline, though I find myself to be there at the cinema whenever a new Twilight movie is out.
I started to enjoy the whole story a little bit when I watched Eclipse. I guess I liked the whole vampire-werewolf war thing going on. And then Breaking Dawn Part 1 came out. Minus the excessive highlight of intense but awesome vampire-human sex scenes, I actually thought the storyline was pretty impressive.
And watching the final movie today, I finally understood the whole obsession over this story. It's not particularly about the characters alone. More about the whole love story. Kinda gave us a tinge of hope to cling to whenever we're involved in a "forbidden love".LOL. That, was what I could gather. And it's even worse when you teared up watching flashbacks of the love story. ah dammit.
Ok moving on to the rating. Personally I would give it a 8/10. The twist was unexpectable. I thought the acting improved and was more believable. I grew to like Bella the vampire. I guess I'm just drawn to strong women and not the hopeless and helpless women like she used to be when she was a human. Vampires are the living dead creatures but Bella seemed so alive. The whole movie seems to make even more sense. Believe me, I am a huge vampire fan since I was young. I grew up with vampire films. This may not be the best vampire movie, but it was good enough. Of course the excessive lovey dovey scenes were to me, a bit over the top, but somehow I got used to it already. Probably not as bad as the previous ones.
So there you go. Goodbye Twilight Saga!
VAMPIRE DIARIES FOR THE WIN!
