MOVIE REVIEW: THE TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN PART 1

The Twilight saga's end is coming as we really feel it fast approaching and with the final book divided into 2 movies, let's see if Breaking Dawn Part 1 did justice and made me enjoy. I feel that it is much better than the last film "Eclipse". This film may be the most love story filled one of all the Twilight movies but hey isn;t it supposed to be the main theme of the film? Twilight is all about the love story of Edward and Cullen and Breaking Dawn Part 1 did really showcase that.

But there are a lot of things that worked really well for Breaking Dawn Part 1. The story itself is a good one. It's full of emotions and people could really feel the drama, suspense and the love on each scene. The conflict presented in the film was also something worth watching with the vampires fighting again with the werewolves but Jacob siding with the vamps this time around. I particularly like the emotions shown by the three leads - Edward (Robert Pattinson), Bella (Kristin Stewart) and Jacob (Taylor Lautner). They have sure grown better in terms of acting. Another great thing about the film is the wonderful musical choices and the whole soundtrack itself. I love the "wedding scene" song - Flightless Bird, American Mouth ( Wedding Version ) by Iron & Wine as it really is filled with love and fits the scene perfectly.

It might be true that the film may be a tad lacking but hey several scenes make up for it. The dying scene of Bella, the wedding and even the fight of the wolves and the vamps. I'm not a totally die-hard "Twilight" fan but this one's really good if not the best. 4.5 out of 5 popcorns.
