Eng: A worthy sequel
Review by Lisa Olsson
The wait is over, "New Moon" the sequel to "Twilight" is here and it is of course a movie filled to the brim with romance. Sometimes it floods over, but on the whole, this is a worthy sequel that offers love, excitement and great-looking guys.
The love between vampire hunk Edward and Bella is as strong as in the "Twilight" but tell the happiness that lasts forever. When Edward disappears Bella goes far down in a depression in the marsh beefy Jacob rescues her. But Bella does not succeed this time to meet a "boy-next-door".
"Twilight" was directed by Catherine Hardwicke who also did "Thirteen", but "New Moon" has been made by "About a Boy" director Chris Weitz. Certainly there are small differences between the films but I still think they are right equivalent. So if you like the first film you will probably like this. "New Moon" is a prettier and more exciting movie while the essence of the "Twilight" is personal chemistry and the feeling between Bella and Edward. It is not quite the same between her and Jacob nor Edward in "New Moon". But it is of course partly explained by the separation of a large part of the film. And then we all know that love glitters most in the beginning.
Love is of course the great theme of the film. And there is not some little love but it's the love that is worth dying for which we are talking about. Symbolically enough,the teenagers in the film read "Romeo and Juliet" and almost not an eye is dry. I think a lot of great attraction in the film lies precisely in these exaggerated and bombastic emotions. Lines like "You give me everything just by breathing" is not something you often hear in real life. It is simply about escapism and the "New Moon" we get a lot of it. The heroes that patroness just happens to be in the form of vampires and werewolves.
Bella is supposed to also imagine a right common girl, even if Kristen Stewart not directly looks so common. But all the guys are in love with her and the people, girls, guys, did not dream of such in their teens. Or still dreaming about. It is not just teenagers who like "Twilight" - check out the site www.twilightmoms.com.
Sure sometimes you get completely mad at Bella who is willing to sacrifice absolutely everything and ideally want to be vampire herself to be with Edward forever. She is constantly seeking new adrenalin rush and you just want to say to her to take it easy. But the exaggerated is also the temptation. Other attractions are of course the two young hunk looking guys who represent two different types of guys. Robert Pattinson has probably had a lot of screaming fans behind him last year but now maybe it will even to17-year-old Taylor Lautners (who plays Jacob) turn. He is said to have gone up 14 kilograms for the role, and yes it's just muscles. By the way vampires are according to the book to be pale and without body hair, eyebrows and hair, only on the head. It had probably not been so difficult to wax Robert Pattinson a bit but who knows, maybe he refused.
The main characters are recognized again from the first film. Bella is sullen and Edward is the polite but serious guy. I like Bella's father Charlie more in this movie because it has happened something to his character. But I want to see even more of the vampire, Victoria because it is when she is on as it is exciting.
"New Moon" is primarily a romantic movie and even romance, sometimes overflowing , you have to giggle a bit embarrassed as it is entertaining.
SV: En v�rdig uppf�ljare
Recension av Lisa Olsson
V�ntan �r �ver, "New Moon" uppf�ljaren till "Twilight" �r h�r och det �r f�rst�s en film fylld till bredden med romantik. Ibland sv�mmar det �ver men i det stora hela �r det h�r en v�rdig uppf�ljare som bjuder p� k�rlek, sp�nning och snygga killar.
K�rleken mellan vampyrhunken Edward och Bella �r lika stark som i "Twilight" men s�g den lycka som varar f�r evigt. N�r Edward f�rsvinner hamnar Bella l�ngt ner i ett depressions-tr�sk som den biffige Jacob r�ddar henne fr�n. Men inte heller den h�r g�ngen lyckas Bella tr�ffa en "boy-next-door".
"Twilight" regisserades av Catherine Hardwicke som ocks� har gjort "Tretton" men "New Moon" �r d�remot gjord av "Om en pojke"-regiss�ren Chris Weitz. Visst finns det sm� skillnader mellan filmerna men jag tycker �nd� att de �r r�tt likv�rdiga. S� gillar man den f�rsta filmen kommer man antagligen ocks� att gilla den h�r. "New Moon" �r en snyggare och mer sp�nnande film medan det viktigaste i "Twilight" �r personkemin och k�nslan mellan Bella och Edward. Det blir inte riktigt samma sak mellan henne och Jacob och inte heller med Edward i "New Moon". Men det har ju delvis sin f�rklaring i att de �r �tskilda i en stor del av filmen. Och sen vet vi ju alla att k�rlek glittrar mest i b�rjan.
K�rlek �r f�rst�s det stora temat i filmen. Och det �r inte n�gon liten f�r�lskelse utan det �r k�rlek v�rd att d� f�r som vi snackar om. Symboliskt nog l�ser ton�ringarna i filmen "Romeo och Julia" och knappt ett �ga �r torrt. Jag tror att mycket av den stora lockelsen i filmen ligger just i de h�r �verdrivna och bombastiska k�nslorna. Repliker som "Du ger mig allt bara genom att andas" �r inte direkt n�got man ofta h�r i verkligheten. Det handlar helt enkelt om eskapism och i "New Moon" f�r vi mycket av det. Hj�ltarna som beskyddar r�kar bara komma i form av vampyrer och varulvar.
Bella ska ju dessutom f�rest�lla en r�tt alldaglig tjej �ven om Kristen Stewart inte direkt ser s� alldaglig ut. Men alla killar �r k�ra i henne och vilka personer, tjejer som killar, har inte dr�mt om s�dant i sina ton�r. Eller dr�mmer fortfarande om. Det �r n�mligen inte bara ton�ringar som gillar "Twilight" - kolla in sajten www.twilightmoms.com.
Visst ibland kan man bli helt galen p� Bella som �r beredd att offra precis allt och allra helst vill bli vampyr sj�lv f�r att kunna vara med Edward f�r evigt. Hon s�ker st�ndigt nya adrenalinkickar och man vill bara s�ga �t henne att ta det lugnt. Men som sagt det �verdrivna �r ocks� lockelsen. Andra lockelser �r f�rst�s de tv� unga snygga hunkarna som representerar tv� olika killtyper. Robert Pattinson har nog haft m�nga skrikande fans efter sig det senaste �ret men nu kanske det �ven blir 17-�rige Taylor Lautners (som spelar Jacob) tur. Han s�gs ha g�tt upp 14 kilo f�r rollen och ja det �r bara muskler. F�rresten ska vampyrerna enligt boken vara bleka och utan kroppsbeh�ring, bara �gonbryn och h�r p� huvudet. Det hade v�l inte varit s� sv�rt att vaxa Robert Pattinson lite men vem vet, han kanske v�grade.
Huvudpersonernas karakt�rer k�nns v�l igen fr�n f�rsta filmen. Bella �r den buttra och Edward �r den artiga men sv�ra killen. Jag gillar Bellas pappa Charlie mer i den h�r filmen eftersom det har h�nt n�got med hans karakt�r. Men jag vill se �nnu mer av vampyr-Victoria f�r det �r n�r hon �r med som det blir sp�nnande.
"New Moon" �r i f�rsta hand en romantisk film och �ven om romantiken ibland sv�mmar �ver och man m�ste fnissa lite generat s� �r det underh�llande.
