Our take on The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2

Bill Condon's 2012 chapter closes the vampire-romance saga, opening after the birth of Renesmee. To shield the child from a false accusation that endangers them all, the Cullens gather vampire clans from around the world, drawing the scrutiny of the powerful Volturi. A blend of drama, fantasy and romance, it caps a long-running story, so it plays best for viewers already invested in these characters and their world rather than newcomers. Expect the series' familiar mix of yearning, supernatural spectacle and gathering conflict as alliances form. If you've followed the earlier films, this finale delivers the confrontation the storyline has been building toward.
