There are many challenges associated with executing a single story arc
over multiple movies, but typically, there’s also one huge advantage.
By the final chapter, the filmmaker doesn’t need to include all the
little tidbits to get to know characters because basically everyone
involved is familiar. The payoff from sharing all those fears, likes,
hopes and dreams over the previous films is that these people can be
used in small moments to maximum effect because their relationships with
the leads doesn’t need to be explained. We watched Neville grow up for
seven
Harry Potter movies; so, when he confronts Nagini, we know why it’s uniquely important for him to do so.
Unfortunately,
Breaking Dawn—Part 2 discards much of that natural
advantage. Not only does the script fail to include numerous
characters who ate up plenty of screentime in previous movies, it
introduces more than a dozen new faces in order to more densely fill out
the ranks after an unfortunate misunderstanding upends the Cullen’s
universe. Back in the day, some less than intelligent vampires bit
little kids. Without the ability to control themselves, these immortal
children tore through entire villages and threatened entire covens with
exposure. Unfortunately for Bella (Kristen Stewart) and Edward (Rob
Pattinson), their daughter Renesmee (Mackenzie Foy) shares a lot of
features with this cursed lot, and it’s not long before the deliciously
evil Aro (Michael Sheen) takes notice. Naturally, our heroes need more
muscle to battle the Volturi, and that’s where all the strangers come
in.
With a runtime at a shade less than two hours, the chaotic
meet-and-greet should sink the momentum of the overall film, but
screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg actually does as well with the balancing
act as she can. The new characters are well-established enough to
eventually feel familiar, and the focus never drifts completely away
from Bella, Edward and to a lesser extent, Jacob (Taylor Lautner). All
three leads are comfortable and competent in the roles they’ve returned
to over and over again, and each receives the fitting closure their
individual trajectories warrant.
Much of the credit for keeping this dicey ship afloat belongs to
director Bill Condon, as well. Adapting a book so cherished by fans is
never an easy task, but Condon is able to find a balance between doing
the source material justice and making choices in the film’s best
interests. What works on the page doesn’t always work on the screen,
and the helmer is able to acknowledge and maximize the humor within some
of the more ridiculous plot points. These moments of levity provide a
nice balance against the final, more serious apex of the larger work.
By now, most of us are keenly aware of what
Twilight
fundamentally is. We know the brooding, slightly melodramatic tone, the
overall story arc and the young adult characters. Condon doesn’t
attempt to change any of that. He clearly cares about and appreciates
the source material and the movies that came before including the one he
directed. So, instead of altering things, he simply makes the best
possible
Twilight movie he can make following the same constraints. Regardless of your feelings on the franchise, that’s a feat, and it means
Breaking Dawn—Part 2 is about as good as it could have possibly been.
The Twilight Saga has never been better than this. That might
not be enough to get your into the theater, but it is enough to give the
film a thumbs up.
