The 13 year old girl in me liked it.
I've seen more than one review stating that it's the best of the series so far. I don't know... I still like the first one the best. The first one didn't blow me away, but I remember thinking about it and not really being able to fault it for anything. I thought it was an excellent movie.

I really liked the second one, too, though there certainly are things to pick on. I think Jacob should put on a shirt and focus some of his energy on acting lessons rather than the Ab Lounge. I've seen New Moon twice, and I find most of the scenes with he and Bella to be awkward.

Eclipse is about the same, but it has more excellent moments.

When the movie started, I didn't realize it had started. I thought the entire first scene was an excellent trailer for some other movie. Then I figured out it was part of the movie. Whoops. The chase scene in the forest, and most all of the action scenes, were successful.

I like them all. Yes, I'm a 13 year old girl inside. I wonder if I would like them had I not read the books. I wonder if that's biasing me.

I have a lot to say about the books, but have done that already, but I'll spare you. Mostly. Breaking Moon was excessively long, boring, and anti-climatic. Furthermore, it was done in a different style of the first 3. It broke the continuity and felt like a book from another series. (I might be exaggerating on that last point, but not excessively).
