Today is January 1, 2012 and this is my attempt to catch up on my movie review blog! Since I posted my last blog in November, I’ve seen several new movies including: Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol; New Year’s Eve; My Week With Marilyn; and the new Twilight movie “Breaking Dawn – Part 1”.
I saw Breaking Dawn with my 14-year-old daughter and friends at the midnight movie premier on November 18, 2011. Well, technically we arrived at the theater on Thursday, November 17 for a 12:05 am showing. The theater we went to was very crowded and it was showing the movie on multiple screens at midnight. Some of my friends went to a midnight premiere at a different theater here in Little Rock and all of those showings were sold out too!
Rated PG-13 for disturbing images, violence, sexuality/partial nudity and some thematic elements
As someone who has read all four books written by Stephanie Meyer and has seen all four movies so far at midnight premieres, I liked this movie the best, with the exception of a graphic scene toward the end of the film. I won’t give it away, but it was featured on an episode of Entertainment Tonight earlier this year. And I should mention that my daughter Lauren actually went to Forks, Washington this past summer while she and my mother were visiting relatives near Seattle, Washington. She brought back a t-shirt for me that says Team Jacob!
