Content
Occasional strong romance (I skipped the scene), hunting scene is intense, strong violence (semi-frequent near the end), feeling of helplessness/terror, tissues needed
Summary from Amazon UK (I don't benefit by mentioning them)
Transformed, Bella (Kristen Stewart) stands alongside Edward (Robert
Pattinson) as a vampire. Experiencing phenomenal powers she thrives in
her new life… but danger is never far away. Facing the wrath of the
Volturi, led by the menacing Aro (Michael Sheen), can Edward, Bella and
Jacob (Taylor Lautner) find the strength for one last stand to live the
life they dream of?
Nayuleska's thoughts
My worries proved unfounded. I adore this final installment in the incredibly true to the book Twilight saga - Bella rules as a vampire and Nessie is adorable!
Suggested watch
Definitely watch the rest of the series. I suggest reading the whole book series by Stephanie Meyer too, at the very least read Breaking Dawn (which got split into 2 films).
