Critics Consensus

Stuffed with characters and overly reliant on uninspired dialogue, Eclipse won't win The Twilight Saga many new converts, despite an improved blend of romance and action fantasy.

I wanted "terrible/AWESOME" and all we got was painfully terrible. I am upset.

Eclipse made me stabby when I read it... the movie version was only mildly less stupid.

Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr Podcast

It's better than New Moon (because something actually happens), but both Jacob and Edward are insufferable and Bella's decision to become a vampire remains irrational. Janky FX, not enough Dallas Howard and bad wigs sink the ship. Slade is on autopilot

Rated: 2.5/5

And amidst so much effervescence lies teen movies' most wearisome love triangle. [Full review in Spanish]

Deep Focus Review

This melodrama of monsters doubles as a metaphor for the characters’ sometimes supernatural ability to control their sexual desires. The rest of the plot is just filler.

Rated: 2/4

"Eclipse" does feel like it drags on for the majority of the film with repeated story points, lackluster dialogue, meandering filler moments, a pandering love triangle, grating unhealthy behaviour from one particular character and pure exposition to the big climax of what the last 4th and 5th instalment was entailed to be. However, Twilight is an addictive and entertaining series in and of itself, mainly due to it's expansive characters, unique and moody YA tone, small town forest-ty setting, lead stars' chemistry and tragic yet fantastical concept (werewolves, vampires etc.). The amalgamated final sequence excited and thrilled me throughout, and learning about the side character's behind stories offered depth to the world and made us care more for what was going on. At the end of the day, it's worth a watch just to get you through to understand the overall lore and get going to the next film.

Less enervating than its predecessor but incapable of wriggling free from the laughable premise that holds the series in arrest, Eclipse stands as the strongest entry in The Twilight Saga... which sadly isn't saying much.

If only this were the last in the series ... it would have ended on about as much of a high note as possible.

A very forgettable film in the twilight saga that builds up to an epic battle that ended up being quite lame.
