6/10
not awful but poorly acted and overlong
3 July 2010
Eclipse isn't excellent but neither terrible. This adaptation of Stephenie Meyer's book falls somewhere in the middle, between the 2008's Twilight and the emotional oasis of 2009's New Moon. The Twilight series is often too much melodramatic but gets usually to arouse amorous emotions and thrills. Screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg and new series director David Slade (Hard Candy) try to use the whole teenage material into a coherent shape, with decent results. The inconsistency comes from tone results that end up being even lethargic at a point, so the forth installment will really have to be different otherwise fans will start getting tired of it.
