Eclipse was by far the best of the Twilight saga so far. I'm not a reader so I will not discuss how close or far this film is from the book. What I do know is I am by far a huge vampire and werewolf fan.
I will start with the acting though. Very much improved but still not great. After seeing Robert Pattinson in the movie 'Remember Me' I hardly doubt his acting ability and blame it on this series that I even thought he was bad. On the other hand, I can't say that for the other two big three. It does seem as though Kristen Stewart has read comments or something and has decided to try breathing through her nose for once but her acting is definitely not great. How she got cast for this part I'm not even sure (though I would not change her now). Taylor Lautner is improving but I still see him as the worser of the three. Congrats on all the muscles but you probably should have worked on your acting abilities a little more.
As for the movie, the first 20 minutes were horrible but the movie did pick up. In the end I did enjoy the film but had I not been interested in the saga I probably would not have been. This film was much better put together than the first two and finally some decent action to it. I'm still lost on how 2 people fall in love with Bella's character but hey... that's what Hollywood does.
I still think after reading a lot of the reviews here that so many are biased but the horrible obsession people have created over this series. The movie was not bad... the acting was much improved and the action and dialogue was better. I liked Twilight but I liked New Moon better (though I was not at all satisfied with it the first time and watching it again away from a bunch of screaming teen-aged girls in the theater definitely made a difference) and I definitely like Eclipse more than others.
Overall you wanna be somewhat knowledgeable of the series before you go. But it is entertaining.
