Love the movie, obviously. The special features disk was almost as great as the movie - it has cast interview, behind the scenes, deleted scenes, music videos, animated story stuff, etc. If you are choosing between the one disk and two disk - I vote you choose this one.
I have read all the books (and loved them), seen Twilight a hundred times (and loved it) and now I have just seen New Moon and loved that too - and I'm 38. This series will appeal to anyone, in my opinion, even my husband really enjoyed it.
I must admit I did wonder before seeing this film if it would have the same feel as Twilight with it having a new Director but it is every bit as good as the first. The love between Bella and Edward and also Jacob and Bella is very palpable and really well acted. The scenery and backdrops are just as gloomy and eerie and the music creates just the right atmosphere. It's over a year since I read the book, but from memory this film stays pretty faithful to the book and really did it justice.
Whether you're Team Edward or Team Jacob, I'm pretty sure that if you're a fan of the books then you'll be a fan of this too. I loved it!
By True Twilight Saga fans I mean the folks who have read all the books more than once BEFORE seeing the films .... like me! I really hate to see the films berated for not being as good as the book ... a film is never ever going to be as good as the book - so stop expecting it to be so!!!
As a massive & avid fan of the books. I absolutely loved New Moon, as I did Twilight - for the simple fact that all the characters I had imagined, the world I had imagined came to life in front of me, and showed me a different perspective from my own imagination.
Of course you can never fit everything in a film that is in the book, so you must forgive this - also please forgive the fact that Edward doesn't appear as much in New Moon - he does not appear much in the book!!! That is the whole point ... the angst of Edward leaving Bella, how she deals with this and turns to her friend Jacob for comfort and in turn discovers a whole new world she knew nothing about.
The film makers have stayed very true to the story, these are films that stay very close and true to the books - admirably so! The only holes are some parts from the book, nothing major, these are due to the fact that you cannot fit everything in - it would be impossible, as I said before! They got all the most important things from the book in the film, it was portaryed so, so well!
This film is amazing, the effects are amazing, they have truly captured the raw emotion, the feeling, the pain, the confusion and the action of the book. It really has been brought to life in front of my eyes. The casting is unbelievable, Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson were born for these roles!
I cannot wait for Eclipse and for my favourite... Breaking Dawn!!!
I know all TRUE Twilight Saga Fans will agree with me completely and appreciate these films for what they are.
I have to say I love this film! I was struggling mid-way through the new moon book and decided to watch the film to provide the motivation during the 'Edward free' period and it really worked. The film seems to be better proportioned than the novel and is much more gritty than the first film, also thankfully they have got rid of Edward's dodgy eyebrows from the first film (what were they thinking!?). All in all a great film, especially the end, I won't give it away but I did scream with excitement! Enjoy.
I was very surprised to find that I enjoyed the first movie, so checking this one out was clearly a must. Happily, it's handled at a slightly faster rate than Twilight, and this means more events and more teenage angst. Shortly after a frightening accident, Bella's soul-mate Edward does the unthinkable and splits up with her, leaving her devastated. However she finds something to enjoy about life again in friend Jacob's company, giving hope to his romantic feelings for her. However all is not well in the area - vampires are killing, their ancient enemies the werewolves are rallying their numbers, and Bella's taken an unhealthy interest in high-risk sports...
It's an excellently handled movie. The romance moments are given full Hollywood clout and have strong impact, aided by very committed performances from the central trio. The action is enjoyable and fairly violent, and the tension is masterfully handled, especially a trip to Rome and a tense and sadistic meeting with the vampire power-brokers the Vulturi. Lautner is given much more screen time thanks to his more important role this time out, and he gives a star-making turn. Pattinson breathes pure charisma, and Kristen Stewart is very convincing as emotionally conflicted and desperate Bella. There are some slightly shonky CGI effects with the werewolves, but they're not noticeable enough to damage the viewing enjoyment, and the action is nicely exciting.
As a film it's very enjoyable, and as a sequel it manages to raise the game, the tension and the romance all in one outing, nicely setting up a sequel with some surprising moments and plot hints. Very enjoyable.
What can I say? - fantastic. I'm an avid fan so probably completely biased but I just love Edward and Jacob should ALWAYS be topless with that body!! If you liked the first film then definitely buy this one. Not enough of Edward in it for my liking, but nothing like a bit of eye candy in Jacob to warm the coccles...
I bought the single disc version when it was first released and LOVED it! Then having bought the 2 disc version of Twilight, the extras DVD was absolutely insightful and amazing. That did it! I just had to have the 2 disc version of New Moon - and I was definitely not disappointed. The deleted and extended scenes offer an idea of what might have been! I could have watched these films with all these definitely left in! Edward goes to Italy is 'fantastic' and in one scene, where Edward and Bella kiss inside the clock tower, the action definitely continues even though the director has called "Cut!" Whether you are Team Edward or Team Jacob, the fast forwards are an absolute delight as they focus on either your favourite vampire (my personal favourite) or your favourite werewolf. And then you get the film as well!! I just love the drama, emotion and romance that runs throughout the film. Although I have seen Eclipse at the cinema, roll on the release of the DVD, preferably the 2 disc version!
When Twilight came out at the cinema it didn't really appeal to me. However, I bought Twilight on DVD when I saw it cheap. I really enjoyed it and had to buy New Moon when it came out. It was amazing and it is going to be one of those films you can watch over and over again without getting bored of it. I can't wait to find out what happens in the rest!
I'm a forty year old mother and I should know better but I loved it. I wanted to be Bella - I have become a little obsessed! I couldn't put the books down!
Just like the first Twilight this is an excellent movie, it's similar to the book, but it doesn't follow it completely.
If you've read the book and like the story then this is a good companion to it and I highly recommend watching the film, watch all of the films released so far (I recently watched Eclipse in the cinema and it was great) as even though they aren't carbon copies of the books they are still wonderful movies in their own right.
Just like Twilight this looks excellent in HD, I haven't seen the DVD of New Moon to compare it to the Bluray, but if the DVD of New Moon is similar to the DVD of Twilight then it is worth getting the Bluray if you have a Bluray player.
I loved this movie, enjoyed the book and I'm hooked on the Twilight Saga.
