The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 Reviews

Haters will hate, Twi-hards will love hard and the objective viewer will find another flawed spectacle which, while not as without merit as some would argue, is still easy to pick apart.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 is easily the best film in the series, thanks to stylish direction, a good sense of tone, and decent acting. It also has an infuriating ending that reinforces the worst of this series.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10

As for the millions that have had to suffer through this series, we celebrate the end of one of the worst franchises in cinematic history and are thankful that we no longer have to dread more of this soap opera that should have been cancelled long ago.

Full Review | Original Score: 1.5/4

From bottom of my heart thank you. And thank you to Bella, Edward and Jacob for letting us laugh, cry, debate, and pick sides while you three bastards stare at each other.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.75/5

Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 is an unredeemable waste of time and money. Like the vampire characters it's utterly lifeless and yet by that monstrous twist of fate - it exists.

Full Review | Original Score: 0/5

A reminder that the journey has been a murmur rather than a saga, and the final plod is no exception

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

Let's forget that any of this ever happened.

Unequivocally the worst of the lot ... The final instalment of a five-film franchise has all the emotional weight and impact of an episode of Entourage.

Full Review | Original Score: 0.5/5

Between its farcical script, soulless relationships and waxwork performances, this is a final chapter that will please only the most devout fans.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

The Twilight Saga has finally ended, not with a triumphant roar but with the self-satisfied mumble of an inconsiderate lover rolling over and breaking wind as they fall asleep

Full Review | Original Score: 1/5

The plot moves at a glacial pace and just when you think it's starting to get interesting, you discover that it's going nowhere.

Full Review | Original Score: C+

Fans will find a lot to love with Breaking Dawn Part 2, both expected and unexpected, and critics will find a non-stop checklist of laughable dialogue, poor acting and sub-par special effects.

Full Review | Original Score: D+

When the climactic battle finally arrives, it's a big letdown, full of bloodless decapitations (thanks, PG-13 rating) and awkward face-offs.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

The finale is a doozy, almost certain to be satisfying to fans and impressive even to the casual "Twilight" viewer. But so much of what comes before that payoff...is mundane, dull, all talk and no action.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4

...Inept and self-congratulatory. It's an eyeliner-and-bad-special-effects face off, with the Cullen family and their runway model pals voguing against Aro and his heavily robed, superpowered minions.

Full Review | Original Score: C-

There are better ways to spend your evening. Perhaps there's some laundry to be done?

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5

Heads roll, sparks fly, wolves howl and the cinema audience collapses, weak with laughter.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5

Bill Condon cannot, for all his skill and effort, overcome the essentially s**t nature of the source material.

I must admit if you're going to bring the series to a close, "Part 2" does it about as well as it can be done.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4

I'll probably never understand the popularity of the Twilight movies. They're haphazardly assembled adaptations of awful books.
