The final installment of the multi-billion dollar Twilight saga, Breaking Dawn: Part II, hit theaters on November 16. While many fans called out the producers on splitting the last book for more revenue, it was justified — many important events would have been brushed over otherwise. Clearly, this did not have any effect on movie attendance; almost one million “Twi-hards” attended the midnight premiere.

Our generation’s opinion on the four-part Saga is notoriously polarized — you either hate it or you love it. Those who loved the books in middle school typically love the movie versions. Judge me all you want, but I’ve seen every Twilight movie in theaters, and the inner “Twi-hard” in me fully intended to finish out that streak with Breaking Dawn: Part II.

Here’s what you need to know about Part I to understand Part II: Bella discovers she is pregnant with a half-human, half-vampire child — an unprecedented creature, which is growing at an alarmingly fast rate. The Cullens debate whether or not they should kill the child, due to Bella’s rapidly declining condition. Bella almost dies in labor, so Edward bites her, turning her into a vampire.

Part II picks up exactly where Part I left off. Bella has just finished her painful transformation into a vampire, and is excited to embark on her new life with Edward and their child Renesmee. They quickly learn that the child is a harmless mortal, but develops unnaturally fast, looking ten years old when she is actually six months old.

The Volturi, the family government of the vampire world, believe that Renesmee is an immortal child (a child bitten to become a vampire), which is a crime punishable by death. With the Volturi coming to Forks to kill her, the Cullens call upon their friends from around the world to stand as witnesses to her mortality.

With a whole slew of new characters, an exciting action scene, and an unexpected plot twist (for those who haven’t read the novel), Breaking Dawn: Part II is the best film of the Twilight saga.

For those of you planning to see it for a laugh, there are still ridiculous aspects of the film. The sub-plot involving Jacob and his love for baby Renesmee is laughable and creepy.

However, the computer animation were sub-par. Come on, producers, we know these movies bring in millions of dollars in revenue; you have more than enough money to improve the graphics!

Overall, “Twi-hards” will be satisfied with the consistency of the movie with the novel, and “Twi-haters” will find humor with the ridiculous plot elements. If you’re determined to hate the series, you will hate the movie. My suggestion: if you like superficial entertainment, cheesy love stories, and beautiful people, go see it. As long as you don’t expect anything Oscar-worthy, you will enjoy it.
