'Breaking Dawn'? More Like 'Making Yawn'!

I just watched woke up from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1. I don’t want to say the movie bored me, but I haven’t slept that well since my infamous four-day Ambien/pot brownie bender that preluded my return to rehab in 2008.

The film started off alright, with a controversial sex scene steamy enough to keep tween girls and former-Penn State Defensive Coordinator Jerry Sandusky clamoring for more.

But mere moments after Jake (played by 4’11″ heartthrob Taylor Lautner) and Edward (Robert Pattinson) share their final kiss, the movie falls apart. Bella (Kristen Stewart) moves to Camden, New Jersey, where she meets an elderly werewolf named Peter (John Lithgow) with whom she falls in love. In a dark twist, the rest of the cast *SPOILER ALERT* is wiped out after a tsunami hits the Pacific Northwest.

The Bottom Line: The movie’s pacing is slow, but if you’re looking for hot vampire-on-werewolf lovemaking, this is the second best film in theaters at the moment (Immortals has a shockingly similar plot).

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars
