By All Means: It's (Finally) Dead!



Die hard fans may rephrase it like this:
Why did it has to end? Why can't we have more of Bella's vampire story?

Ugggh...

Sagas usually involved a long history, usually epic, usually involved generations, usually in ages... but not this saga. This saga I'm afraid can't be rated in stars, it's too "unusual" (as I am looking for a hammer in the head icon - sadly not found).

Having watched all five movies in this - ahem! - saga, I have to say they set a whole new definition in the history of movies. Actually, unlike its predecessors, the latest installment of the - ahem! - saga, is not half bad. It's almost completely bad! I have to admit I watched this just for the laugh and the eye candy of course. Where else could you find a herd of hunky werewolves and then there's Jasper and Emmett. For the latest installment I'm rewarded with the appearance of Lee Pace. Although deep down I'm crying (why Lee? why?!).

KStew and RPatz don't smooch as the previous Breaking Dawn installment since Bella can exercise her new vamp skills and muscles by hunting down helpless animals. Part of the reason probably for Bella not to smudge Edward's makeup base and glitter. One more scene that I don't really know how to put is the way Lautner (homo-erotically) stripping to Bella's dad. I remember, I smiled ear to ear during that scene. Best scene  ever! Thanks Lautner *kiss*

In typical Hollywood fashion we are usually rewarded with an ultimate final battle, Harry Potter has one with Voldemort. In this one, the battle is quite shocking and I have to say one of the cheapest trick in the history of Hollywood. HollyShit to be exact. Aro is being fooled by Alice as Michael Sheen being fooled by the Director. I can't stop wondering how such versatile actor like Michael Sheen would star in such terrible piece.

Fans of the series, will no doubt find it all terribly romantic and deeply meaningful. The rest of humanity will remain stiffer than wood like KStew facial expression. One positive outcome of the Breaking Dawn Part 2 is: a relieved smirk on my face as I got out of the cineplex. The damn thing is finally DONE. OVER. FINISH. FIN. FINITO. TERMINADO. 

Alhamdulillah.
