Wedding. Sex. Kissing. More Sex. More Kissing. Baby. Fighting. That's pretty much "Breaking Dawn - Part 1" in five seconds!

As a twi-hard (a fanatic twilight fan) I had pretty high expectations for "Breaking Dawn - Part 1." I have to say my expectations were more than met.

The story leaves off where the last movie, "Eclipse," ended. Bella and Edward get married, go on their honeymoon and Bella gets pregnant. This sets up the storyline that Bella may not be able to survive with a half-vampire, half-human baby growing rapidly inside her, causing her body to slowly deteriorate.

Every person who has read the books knew that this was going to be both a steamy and gory movie. Let me tell you, it was. The movie followed the books almost to a tee, and didn't skimp on the parts Twilight aficionados were looking forward to most.

Don't worry, unlike the last three movies Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart actually acted like they were in love. It was a nice change from the last movies, where they were very awkward with each other.

Whether you're interested in the blood, the sex or both, this movie does not disappoint.
