James Franco On His Review For ‘Breaking Dawn’

James Franco can now add to his list of credentials being a movie critic especially with his recent review of ‘The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1.’ In his article for ‘The Paris Review,’ he compared the said film with an Oscar hopeful movie of Clooney called ‘The Descendants.’ He made a lot of good points with regards to the two movies and the way it used sex as a theme and even to the point of ‘devaluing motherhood.’

All the quotes he made in his review are worth the read and we have quoted some of the most memorable ones here. Check them out below straight from James Franco’s article:

“‘The Descendants’ and ‘Breaking Dawn’ were released on the same weekend. Undoubtedly one is making a play for an Oscar. Undoubtedly the other will dominate every MTV award category, including best kiss, best dude moment, best male shirtless scene, and whatever else the network that produces ‘the Jersey Shore’ celebrates.”

“A few other forbidden territories are broken in as well. The protagonists finally marry, having waited until the wise old age of eighteen, and since the book and the film dutifully show them being wed, they are then allowed to f— each others’ brains out. For a film that claims to be sexually responsible, the ‘Twilight’ movies are awfully dependent on teenage sex to attract viewers.”

We are sure all of Franco’s fans would wish he would not be too busy to be able to maintain his writing stints and share to the world his pure and straightforward thoughts.
