So, Breaking Dawn Part 1: Er…
Well, it has taken me a while to write about the 4th film instalment of Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight Saga.
Before I go into why that might be, I’ll start by telling you what I’ve heard other people say – both good and bad.
The good stuff:
‘So romantic!’
‘I love what they do with the Summit logo at the beginning’
‘Gorgeous wedding, that dress! I’m not so sure about the ring’
‘The best part is by far the ‘back breaking’ scene!’
The not so good stuff:
‘What a pile of excrement!’
‘Did, I really just spend 11.25 on that? Why, why did you make me spend 11.25 on that?
‘Is it ever a good thing in films when people laugh at something that wasn’t supposed to be funny?
‘Did anyone else notice the continuity error when Bella and Edward are at the Alter? When the camera pans around them? One second all the seats are occupied and the next they are vacant, then they’re occupied again. Just not good enough really’
So…
With all that said, I’m sure it won’t surprise you to learn that most of the people who had the worst things to say about the film are not exactly the key demographic/ target audience; mainly teenage girls who have read the books and love the characters
As for why it took me so long to write this, it took me a while to watch it and let’s just say that ‘Breaking Dawn, Part ’1 is not my favourite of the Twilight films. That would be ‘New Moon’
I do agree that what Summit do with the logo is cool. The ‘back breaking’ scene was well done and it’s true, I’ve heard people laugh when laughter was far from the desired effect. But overall, I’ll confess that as for Breaking Dawn Part 2, my fingers are crossed that everyone will be very pleasantly surprised.
