Movie Review: Eclipse

Eclipse was my favorite book of the series.
It's where I became a strong TEAM JACOB fan.
I loved the triangle as Bella was forced to look seriously at her life and decide.

ECLIPSE was the first movie of the series I didn't see at midnight.

I liked it much better than the previous two movies.

Things I Loved:

Charlie.
I can't say enough about him. He's a comic relief character and he's absolutely perfect. I adored the scene where he tries having "the talk" with Bella.

Alice.
She's my favorite Cullen. I loved the fight scene between her and Jasper. I also loved watching her have visions.
Jane.
I Love Dakota Fanning. She's amazingly creepy and scary.


Jacob and Bella.
I love how Bella needs to spend time with him before the change. I love how Jacob is too stubborn to leave her alone and how he fights for her. I love the tent scene. I just wish it ended better for them.

The flashbacks.
I liked seeing the other stories of becoming vampires

The ending.
I love how Bella explains her choice (even though I don't like her choice). It's poetic and sweet.


Things I didn't like:

Edward - not a big fan of the character
Starting the movies in fields of flowers
Still some cheesy lines

Things that could have been better:

Fight scene: it was so built up, but it barely lasted any time at all. Also I don't remember the vampires shattering before - maybe I'd forgotten that detail. I wish the fight had gotten a little more screen time. Jacob was the only one hurt - but that seems a little strange given the intensity of the newborn vampires and the training sessions.

More of human Bella's friends: I felt we didn't see Jessica and company too much. I really love her character and wish she had a few more scenes.
