Twilight Saga: Eclipse

After Twilight and New Moon, I've watched Twilight Saga: Eclipse, the third installment of the super-successful vampire film franchise.

It all begins with a choice.

Bella is a making choice between Edward and Jacob. It's a choice between Edward - her true love and immortality; and Jacob - her friend and path to human life. It's complicated, just like what love can be. She finds herself tapped into this love triangle and as the main target of Victoria, who is determined to hurt Edward by killing her.

There's tension between Edward and Jacob but they find common ground and unite to fight an army of vampire newborns who is out to kill Bella. The Cullens and the Native werewolves, who are longtime enemies, teams up to fight the newborns created by Victoria.

One of the best scene happens in the tent. Not only does it make Edward and Jacob connect and understand each other, but it makes the audience roar with laughter. Jacob tells Edward, "Let's face it, I'm hotter than you".

The movie has a light-hearted sense of humor. We can see Jacob topless most of the time (which keeps the audience screaming). To which Edward says, "Doesn't he own a shirt?" The scene when Bella goes from one hot kiss from Edward, to a half-naked Jacob who wraps her in his warm arms, is quite entertaining. The movie also touched other angles of the characters and character flashbacks.

The movie satisfies what Twilight fans crave for and expect - the great vamp vs. werewolf fight scenes, a shirtless teen hunk, a heartbreaking love, and witty one-liners.

Twilight Saga: Eclipse is the most action-packed of all three Twilight films. A simple storyline with action, adventure and history. This makes it the best. It's easy to understand why this movie appeals so much to teenage fans.

My favorite movie lines -

Bella (to Edward): "It's a choice between being who I should be, and who I am"
Edward (To Bella): "Isabella Swan, I promise to love you every moment of forever."
Edward (To Jacob): "If we weren't natural enemies, and you weren't trying to steal my reason for existing, I might like you"
Jacob (To Bella): "I'm gonna fight for you, until your heart stops beating."
Jacob ((To Charlie Swan): "I kissed Bella. Then she hurt her hand, punching my face".
Rosalie (to Bella): "You have a choice. I didn't. None of us did, but you do, and you're choosing wrong!"
