The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (2010) review

Synopsis: As a string of mysterious killings grips Seattle, Bella, whose high school graduation is fast approaching, is forced to choose between her love for vampire Edward and her friendship with werewolf Jacob. Having seen the first two from the Saga, so far, this would be my breakdown of the three- Twilight: easily the best of the bunch so far. New Moon: Utter disappointment, from a Film standpoint, anyway. Eclipse: a slight step up from New Moon, very impressed with many aspects, including the acting, surprisingly. What a segway to begin the review. I'll also state again that this review will be written from a Film standpoint, so none of you hardcore Twi-Hards be hatin' on me. So Eclipse. Although a little slow at the beginning, it picked up a little when it delivered some intense fight scenes between some of the scenes. I was impressed, but I wasn't too thrilled about the CGI in the film. It just didn't work, the scene where the 'transfomed' Jacob is comforting Bella looked pretty effing stupid. There were some funny pieces of dialogue in Eclipse, which, quite surprisingly made me laugh. Kudos to the screenwriters, here. I'll be honest, I did enjoy this installment moreso than New Moon, but still not as good as the oh-so wonderful first film. Lovely film, there were some really bad, stupid moments which made me want to murder everyone in the theatre. 5.5/10 Kazed.

Summer's Moon review

Synopsis: I must say, it is far more easy to criticise than to praise, but with this, it's going to be a breeze. First off, I will say when I purchased this DVD, I figured it would have been a vampire flick. Why? Well, only because of the fact that Ashley Greene- "Summer", had blood falling down her bottom lip. I was honestly lost for words throughout this film. The only thing that made it even remotely tolerable was the hope that something interesting was going to happen n the next scene. That, and the end of the film. The acting was below average in the majority of the film, Greene(Summer) and Mooney(Tom) had quite possibly the worst acting in this. Tom's Father and Mother weren't bad, but the dismal writing of Summer's Moon severely hurt this film. I was getting antsy waiting for some sort of clue as to why this man was doing what he was doing, but nothing. There was nothing. The entire film was just an endless string of incongruity, severely struggling for that one juncture in the film to make it worth the audience's money. Nothing. The ending was so deeply disappointing, that I found my hands contending with my feet to get to my throat. The positives about this film? Probably one. The scene where she gets in the car, and gets blood on her face. You'll know if you dare watching this. Bad attempt at a supposed 'Horror', I just wasn't convinced. 3/10 Kazed
