Robert Pattinson is a bit miffed that New Moon got a relatively cool response from critics...

The actor spoke to parade and said that some reviewers reacted to the hype surrounding the Twilight Saga rather than judging the film as a stand alone.

Rob said: "I didn't like the way New Moon was treated by the critics. I think it was reviewed in the context of just being a big franchise movie.

"When something is so hyped, inevitably, there is a backlash against it. I think Chris Weitz is an amazing director. I really enjoyed the film. So the naysayers kind of annoyed me."

Don't worry Rob, we loved it and can't wait to see Eclipse. Pretty sure we're not alone in that either!

  • I'm sorry, all the movies released so far for the twilight saga could have been better. Twilight was an indie movie and New Moon was too centered on the cgi. The scripts were horrible and almost runined my image of Edward. I have diminished hopes for Eclipse

  • Did Rob really make this statement? New Moon was weak at best. Hopefully an actor would be able to engage in self-reflection and see this film for what it was. People in the theater were laughing out loud during parts that were not supposed to be humorous. Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings were all franchises, but those films (especially the latter ones in the series) received great reviews. I'd like to think of Rob as down to earth, but this comment sounds full of ego
