Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part II

Cast: Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner

Director: Bill condon

Genre: Drama, Romance, Fantasy

Actually not a bad watch. A great end to a romantic saga.

Pluses:

• Kristen Stewart never looked as beautiful as in the Breaking Dawn-Part II. Vampires have more glow than a human ;) She was the central character after all, and she has got some action people this time, she is tough, she can hunt and doesnt need to mount over the back of 'Edward' to wander around the jungle anymore :D And some specific special powers bestowed to her. A mother, a wife and a Girl friend to 'Jacob' :) What more can you ask from a female centric character to have :)
• Robert Pattinson was lovely, somehow this guy gets the expressions so right. When he is a lover, he is passionate; when a father, he is soft, kind and as much caressing. You can see the light in his smiles as he treats the new additions in his family as his own extended family and takes their responsibility. You can even see 'Edward' grown up as a man, accepting 'Jacob' being a part of them, comfortably hiding his devilish and scornful thoughts against him and even expressing from time to time :)
• Taylor Lautner, need not say much, he has his own fans following world over. His presence is what did matter, hence the addition to the 'Pluses' :)
• I have always personally loved the character of 'Alice' played by Ashley Greene and 'Carlisle' played by Peter Facinelli. They always have been a very stong and important support to the leading characters and quite a backbone to the center of the plot
• The story wasnt boring or lagging anywhere. They had many aspects to cover for this extended saga, 'Bella' getting accustomed to her new Avatar, her daughter- her special powers, her character;  the plot against 'Volturi', the epic fight and finally the climax. I would rather say there were too many things that a Twilight series ever covered in a single flick
• I dont consider movie being a bit slow to be a any minus on it, Twilight series have never been fast. Then why complain!!

Minuses:

• Taylor Lautner ruthlessly wasted :( To my dismal, his entire character has been reduced down to a baby sitter. And by default, for granted support for 'Bella'. You anyway see so less of him as for the most of the character he is impersonating a wolf :P And this time, his role was completely subdued, and i so hated this factor
• I wouldnt really mind if they would have extended the size of the movie to cover a little more of character sketches of all, since this was all together a complete new definition of all the roles
• The end in fact was not so well defined, on how 'Alice' visualizes the future to be, is unclear. Those who read the book can only decipher. Others will be lurking in loom or even perhaps choose to ignore to what happens in the end :P

My rating: 3/5
