The decision to split Breaking Dawn, Stephenie Meyer's last book in the "Twilight" series, into two parts has created a pair of films as different as Edward and Jacob.
The first half, The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn -- Part 1 is packed with as many emotional and contemplative moments as the brooding vampire, while the second half will have the kind of action that makes a werewolf howl. It's a similar structure to the two halves of the final "Harry Potter" adaptation: The first Deathly Hallows film concentrated more on the personal connections of the main characters and saved all the action for the second movie.
The division here would have been OK if director Bill Condon hadn't stretched scenes to the point of tedium and cranked up the volume of the soundtrack to annoying levels.
