Talk:Breaking Dawn - Part 1/@comment-4590207-20111210115153

I'm a huge Twilight fan so I loved the movie. It's really slow paced but it had to be, to respect the story of the book. I'm sure part 2 will have a lot more action if we judge by the book. They did add some stuff (to make it more visually interesting I guess) such as Edward reminiscing his rebellious years, Irina being at the wedding(I guess they had to find a way to introduce her in Part 1) and fights between the Wolves and the Cullens (which actually never happen in the book) but I'm happy they didn't change the story too too much. I love that they're splitting the book into two movies because there is too much content in the book and it would've been impossible to fit it all into 2 hours and respect the story and all it's details. Of course the book is always better and will answer anything you did not understand in the movie. I didn't like the music at all and I thought the voices of the wolves while communicating telepathically sounded cartoonish and ridiculous. I'm disappointed they disregarded the fact that Edward is supposed to sparkle in the sunlight and that the wolves are supposed to wear shorts only(except Leah) for practical reasons. Also disappointed that Bella's engagement ring was different than in Eclipse. Also didn't like her wedding dress which looked cheap and was expecting something elegant and antique looking as described in the book. Overall faithful to the original story and details of the book though. Not a movie for men, ladies, leave your boyfriends at home. Looking forward to part 2.
