After the birth of their half mortal half immortal (yes, whatever that means) daughter Renesmee, the Cullens have just started enjoying being together, when they get the bad news. The Volturi are coming after them for sheltering a "human" child.
They must gather the support of other vampire families in order to convince the Volturi that Renesmee is not a threat to their existence, and that they have broken no vampire law.
The movie begins with Bella just starting to understand her vampire traits... and it's a pretty interesting phase. But it quickly turns boring, with endless dialogues and no action, until the last 15-20 mins when the Cullens and their friends, and the wolves face off against the Volturi. The action at the end is uniquely different, and well executed, and worth the wait.
Bella looked much better when she was human, and while she doesn't look as sick and terrible as in the last movie, Bella fans would do well to get a DVD of "On The Road" instead. Unless of course, you prefer watching her taking down the "bad" vampires.
Edward is white as ever, Alice pretty as ever, and the wolf stinks just as much. Dakota also looks just as stunningly deadly. The head Volturi is devilishly evil, and has some great moments towards the end of the movie.
Overall, not a bad watch. Not such a bad way to wrap up, after all!
