The third installment of The Twilight Saga, Eclipse, finally delivers on the promise and potential that has been developing over the last two films. Up until now the primary focus of the series has been on the romance of Edward and Bella, but with that issue reaching a resolution the focus shifts toward an action/adventure tale. The worlds of vampires and werewolves finally collide in spectacular, brutal fights when a vampire army marches on Forks intent on killing Bella and the Cullens. David Slate’s directing is especially evocative and dramatic, and the pacing does an impressive job of moving between the melodrama and the action; creating a suspenseful lead-up toward the final battle. Additionally, the storytelling emphasizes character based drama, creating personal stakes for the action that ensues. Eclipse has once again placed the series on firm ground, building on and enriching this epic story of vampires and werewolves.
