The fight scenes with the vampires are jump-cut nonsense with no sense of peril. The scene where there’s a telepathic conversation voiced-over in English between the wolves brought a chuckle to the screening. The wolves seem to have gotten worse since Twilight Eclipse, reduced to weightless, blurry, cartoon cut-outs in long shot, or to snarling, gurning cartoon cut-outs everywhere else. Pretty boy Taylor Lautner acquits himself rather better this time around, having gained some acting weight if only the same could be said of his wolf alter-ego – despite the double blow to biology the werewolves not only transmute but but on about three times the body mass of their human half.
Inter-cut is the rather tedious strand concerning werewolf Jacob and his clan, bitterly divided over the baby vampires cannot be allowed to breed, according to the ‘Treaty’. The unseen Cullen foetus is one step short of Rosemary’s Baby and the birthing scene had my young lady face-in-hands.
BREAKING DAWN PART 1 SOUNDTRACK ARTWORK MOVIE
On the difficult subject of teen sex, Twilight is no longer an abstinence movie, but what we get is one of the best ads against teen pregnancy in a while.ĭirector Bill Condon ( Gods and Monsters) understands the full cultural history of horror movies and is regarded as a safe pair of hands, but even so struggles to keep the movie within the bounds of its’ rating unable to do the full R-rated David Cronenburg body horror, we’re dangerously close with buckets of blood, full on vampire bite wounds and a degraded corpse. We’re soon voyeurs to a very sexually-charged wedding night that just about made it past the censors in context of the rest of the series. Although it’s all undercut by the most ridiculous-looking set of ‘vamps’ (guests and regulars) to give you the giggles. We’re getting into grown-up territory at last. It begins well enough with the long awaited Cullen wedding a terrified bride, an unholy mix of human and vampire guests, the most embarrassing set of wedding speeches in a very long time but even here Breaking Dawn – Part 1 departs the angsty teen vampire tone of its predecessors. In order to spread the most material over two movies, we get part one which is uneven, slow and… err, laboured(!). Of course you have to get past the genre tag and the target demographic, for which I am the wrong gender and decades too long in the… ah… tooth?īreaking Dawn – Part 1 walks a tight-rope of tones, styles and content and frequently falls off without a safety net. While I find Stephanie Meyer’s best-selling source books poorly written, teen-junk-lit, I have a modest regard for the improving movie series. The backlash has been severe against this instalment, polarising opinion into the lovers and haters. It was my young lady’s birthday the week of release, she is a Twiglet fan, so we went. He added: "It's still part of the same franchise, but I mean it's a completely different movie - and I think that's going to be exciting for fans to see.In The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 (catchy title, that), Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) must deal with the consequences of marriage, honeymoon and the impossible, dangerous birth of a child all made worse for Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) in his divided loyalties to Bella versus his allegiance to the werewolf clan. You see the same characters we've grown to know and love in a completely different light than you've seen them before. The 19-year-old actor, who plays werewolf Jacob Black in the saga, also revealed that the latest instalment shows the much-loved characters "in a completely different light." When asked whether he cried during the screening, Lautner said: "Oh yes! Yeah, of course. Twilight star Taylor Lautner admitted this week that he cried when he watched Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part I for the first time.
