Bella awakes, as a vampire, from her life-threatening labor, and her newborn daughter, Renesmee, proves to be very special indeed. While Bella adjusts to her new state of being, Renesmee experiences accelerated growth. When the Volturi learn of the baby's existence, they declare her to be an abomination and sentence the Cullens to death. Bella, Edward and the rest of the clan seek help from allies around the world to protect their family.

Critics Consensus

It's the most entertaining Twilight, but that's not enough to make Breaking Dawn Part 2 worth watching for filmgoers who don't already count themselves among the franchise converts.

2.5/4

While steps in the right direction are made with this conclusion to the series, it’s much too little and far too late, and this saga of undead romance is as laughably soapy now as it was when Meyer’s first book initially hit the bestseller list.

A feast of ripe dialogue and bloodsucking action.

If anything, this series has gotten dumber and more inert as it has progressed, with this last one finally reaching over into an extended wallow in camp.

2/4

In the end, the movie achieves the same level of mediocrity as its predecessors, only on a grander scale.

Finally we come to the nadir of the saga. Filmed back to back with the first part, [this film] is built around the ... boring premise ... of gathering forces[.]

I will give credit where credit is due: there are some genuinely enjoyable (see: hilarious) moments sprinkled throughout this all together way-too-long fantasy romance.

You have to watch from the beginning, but the data draws you in. You want to help Bella. You want to help Edward. You want to be a Cullen for their family loyslty and devotion. There are too many draws in it for me, I can't name them all.
