Summit Entertainment did a great job adapting the Twilight series written by Stephenie Meyer and had a huge financial success. The world did get moments and a very different life view through these films. But the critics were of a different view.

About The Twilight Saga: New Moon

Read the story and you will get to know how Edward is removed from the film as he is about to take refuge with the chiller Volturi clan. Here Bella, aka Kristen Stewart, and Edward, that is, Robert Pattinson, break up, and the reason for this is the safety of Bella.

Critics also suggest that Edward’s absence, because he moved with the Volturi clan, has highly affected the movie. This particular movie’s rating on IMDb is 4.7/10 with a Metascore of 44.

Many have taken the introduction of werewolves and more into Jacob’s (Taylor Lautner) life as a positive response. Still, the missing of the dear Edward, aka Robert Pattinson, did create a huge pinching point.

About The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1

Although the starting seems impressive with Bella walking down the aisle, the filmmakers had something in their minds and twisted the movie. Here the newlyweds conceive a half-human and half-vampire baby who is dangerous for Bella’s life and breaks the treaty.

Many critics believe that Breaking Dawn was a slow one and kind of boring if you are someone who is watching the franchise for the very first time. Breaking dawn part 1 is one such watch that focuses on a sweet aspect and lovable nature, forgetting the actual theme. Breaking Dawn has received 4.9/10 per IMDb and has secured 45 Metascore.

This movie is totally and only for people who are already huge fans of this franchise. Although you see how huge a buzz was created with the movie with Bella being pregnant, the movie was lastly associated and put into the group of joyless movies.

About Twilight Saga: Eclipse

According to all the ratings and reviews, this has taken the bottom of the barrel. This has the least amount of praise in its bag among the other movies of the series.

Bella, played by Kristen Stewart, is aware that her growing friendship with Jacob and love relationship with Edward might create a spark between the werewolves and the vampire. The “harm Bella” plot also comes into effect.

The story here is very basic take revenge on the Cullens. This movie is only to watch, and there is nothing that might excite you during your entire watch session. The ratings as per IMDb are 5/10. Yes, but reviews also vary from being this the best movie to the poor adaption.

Conclusion- Is the Twilight series a hit or flop?

Thus, as we come to the end of the twilight saga movies ranking, the movies ranked from worst to best can vary from viewer to viewer. But we see that the pilot film had so much to offer, and the makers did their job here only.

This was the plus point that worked for the makers, and the entire series has some mixed critiques. This franchise got too many opinions, from being one of the favorite series for a few to the most disgusted one. Whatsoever the opinion must be box office revenue is something which must be looked into.

The romantic fantasy sequels have it all, which the new teens heavily in love would love watching. But the sequel is surely a doubtful one for the grownup buds. But also, for that early teen love experience, you can enjoy this series anytime.
