It's pretty simple: you either like this, or you don't. If you hated the books and the first film, you won't like this one, so there's no use in going around, saying "God, this movie sucked. It was even worse than Twilight. I hated the books, too." If you want a fan's opinion, this movie was great. And no, I'm not saying this because of the dreamy vampires that are portrayed in it. Yes, I find Robert Pattinson attractive, and I think that Kristen Stewart looks beautiful. That's not my point.
New Moon has a completely different feel from Twilight. The cold, blue filter is gone, the colors are more vibrant and warm, which suits the storyline with the werewolves (you'll know what I'm talking about if you've read the books). Weitz has a great way of directing: everything is more fluid, there are almost no static scenes. The soundtrack, which is great, is present in the movie, but not in an overpowering way as it sometimes was in Twilight.
They've also done a good job in, in anticipation of Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, giving a bigger share of the story to characters like Charlie, Jasper... It would be weird if they have nothing to say in New Moon, and are suddenly principal characters in the next few films.
Additionally, there's more humor in this film too. This is a good break from the sad scenes with Bella sans Edward. I don't find the "depressing" scenes annoying, it's like that in the book.
So if you liked Twilight or the books, go see this movie, you'll love it. If you didn't like either Twilight or the books, there's no need to bash the movies and give it a low rating. Yes, I'm biased, I liked the books AND the movies, but in this case: no one is right, you're a fan, or you're not.
