New Moon (no spoilers!)

Guys - It was AMAZING.  

 I can understand why the reviews suck, and they did for Twilight too.  The movie is not something that I would say stands alone as a great piece of work.  It does however follow the book extremely well.  So if you are a book fan, I don't see how you won't absolutely love it.  

When I saw Twilight the first time, I hated it.  Absolutely laughed walking out of the theatre because I thought it was so bad.  I came to love it (the next 7 times I watched it in theatres) but it definitely wasn't the book to me.  It didn't make me feel like I was seeing what I had read.  

New Moon was exactly that for me.  From the very first scene, it was the book to a T.  

The acting was definitely an improvement, the humour was much better.  

Jessica stole the show, she was so great for such a small part.

Alice...was...incredibly...Alice.  I have been dying to see her actually be a bigger part of the on screen version.  She was so great.  I couldn't stop smiling every second she was on screen.  

I can't wait to see it again.  If only I could be so lucky to not have to sit in line the next time I see it.  I feel totally spoiled that I had VIP treatment and didn't have to wait, got great seats and saw it early.  I'm strategically planning my next viewing.  

One word of warning.  It is a little long.  I didn't feel it while watching, but my bum definitely was sore after, and there were lots of people walking to the bathroom at various intervals.  But it needed to be long in order to do the book justice.
