THE TWILIGHT SAGA: NEW MOON (3-8-11)

The Twilight Saga: New Moon (2009) - *1/2

New Moon is the second of a planned five films based on Stephenie Meyer's silly Twilight series and while it is a marked improvement over the first film, it still isn't very good.  The plot centers around Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart), a high schooler in small town Forks, Washington who finds herself falling into a deep depression after her boyfriend, vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), leaves her unexpectedly.  She finds comfort in local werewolf Jacob (Taylor Lautner), all the while pining for her "true love" Edward.  There are some decent visual effects in the film, but it's VERY slow and heroine Bella is a bit of a drag.
