What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Twilight Saga's second installment may satisfy hardcore fans of the series, but outsiders are likely to be turned off by its slow pace, relentlessly downcast tone, and excessive length.

Laremy Legel Film.com So long as there are people, there will be love stories -- I hope they all feel as lush and lively as this one. Rated: B May 6, 2011 Full Review Nick Schager Lessons of Darkness New Moon is only after the affectation of emotion, of swoon-worthy poses and faux-momentous aesthetics. Rated: D Apr 5, 2010 Full Review Sara Vilkomerson Observer I am not ashamed to admit that I will be the first in line for Twilight part three. Dec 7, 2009 Full Review Joe Lipsett Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr Podcast New Moon is a deeply boring book turned into a deeply boring film, though at least Michael Sheen seems to understand what a campy disaster he's co-starring in. Rated: 2/5 Jan 30, 2024 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review New Moon misses the mark like its predecessor, largely because the monster aspects of the story are the least interesting part, even though they play such a significant role. Rated: 1.5/4 Aug 30, 2023 Full Review CJ Sheu Critics at Large After the lightning strike of Bella and Edward, it's nice to see a more gradual and human romance blossom, even if we know that it's doomed from the start.

Sierra I love all the movies in the twilight series! I’ve been obsessed with them since I was a kid and I’m still obsessed with them as an adult! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/01/25 Full Review Dominic S This is not my favorite book nor movie, but hot damn is it still fun to see in theaters. This movie is light on the Cullen's which I think is the downside. Bella is the worst and Jacob and Edward deserve better. Charlie also deserves a better daughter. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 10/31/25 Full Review Karen The movie was great but the crowd tonight was not as into the movie as last nights TEILIGHT crowd..so it wasnt as fun as it could have been Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/31/25 Full Review alyssa Even better than I remember, I love this movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/25 Full Review Andy I am huge fan of the Twilight Saga, so happy the movies came back in theaters for the fans to enjoy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/25 Full Review Savannah Great story line, awesome cast, and great vibes! This is one of my favorite movies in the Twilight Saga.
